DO YOU LOVE TO HAVE IT SO?

“Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord GOD,
“when I will send a famine on the land—
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water,
but of hearing the words of the LORD. Amos 8:11


For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears, they will gather around for themselves teachers to suit their own passions and desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 2 Tim 4:3-4

Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes. They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord. They say continually to those who despise the word of the Lord, ‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ‘No disaster shall come upon you.’” Jer 23:16-17

And now, go, write it before them on a tablet
and inscribe it in a book,
that it may be for the time to come
as a witness forever.
For they are a rebellious people,
lying children,
children unwilling to hear
the instruction of the Lord;
who say to the seers, “Do not see,”
and to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us what is right;
speak to us smooth things,
prophesy illusions,
leave the way, turn aside from the path,
let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel.” Isaiah 30:8-10

If a man should go about and utter wind and lies,
saying, “I will preach to you of wine and strong drink,”
he would be the preacher for this people! Micah 2:11

“For from the least to the greatest of them,
everyone is greedy for unjust gain;
and from prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
They have healed the wound of my people lightly,
saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?
No, they were not at all ashamed;
they did not know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
at the time that I punish them, they shall be overthrown,”
says the Lord. Jer 8:13-15

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites and personal interests, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve people. Romans 16:17-18

For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thess 2:7-12

But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disgrace. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.” 2 Peter 2:1-3,9

“As for you, son of man, your people who talk together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, say to one another, each to his brother, ‘Come, and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’ And they come to you as people come, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear what you say but they will not do it; for with lustful talk in their mouths they act; their heart is set on their gain. And behold, you are to them like one who sings lustful songs with a beautiful voice and plays well on an instrument, for they hear what you say, but they will not do it. When this comes—and come it will!—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.” Ez 33:30-33

An appalling and horrible thing
has happened in the land:
the prophets prophesy falsely,
and the priests rule at their direction;
MY PEOPLE LOVE YO HAVE IT SO,
but what will you do when the end comes?
Jer 5:30-31

Generation’s End

From The Lord, Our God and Savior - The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy, For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: Streams of water flow down from the mountains, springs of water burst forth from the rocks, rivers of water overflow their banks... And still the thirst of this people is not quenched.
Multitudes of dead and dying peoples fill the streets and the alleyways. No hope is found, no light breaks through the open spaces... The darkness grows and is very thick... Many darkened and ill faces wondering about, treading the broad way... The light of life dims, as their hearts grow cold.
Their countenances are always downcast, for there is no hope in man. Affection is all but lost, compassion is forgotten, and loving one another has no place in man’s designs. For natural affection departs from the hearts of the wicked, and lustful endeavors consume them... Filthiness has made a home, and perversion is praised and celebrated openly in the streets!... As the innocent look upon them with wonder...


YOU DERANGED AND MOST WICKED GENERATION!
I have looked upon you! I know all your doings!
Says The Lord God, even I who formed you.

How long will you tempt Me?!...

How long shall you rebuild Sodom
And make Gomorrah your home?!


My people have forgotten Me, days without end! My heart tears inside Me, each and every time I look upon you. Israel does not know Me, and those called by The Christ’s name pollute My name and My Word, without ceasing!... They are unrelenting!... I can no more listen to their foul speech! I can no more bear the sight of them!
The God of Israel is dead in their eyes! The Salvation of God has no part with them!... Unless I change and become like them, unless I bow down and give heed to their demands, that I altogether conform to their image. And what more shall I say then? What more shall I do for a people such as this?... They will not listen, they refuse to give heed. They squeeze their eyes shut with all their strength, while clasping their hands over their ears tightly.


What is left then?...

Only that I gather what little light remains,
And every innocent child...

I must make room!
I must clear My way before Me!...

I must break this people and destroy all they have made.


It must be done! The wrath of God must be poured out, the cleansing fire must rage!... Until every last vestige of man’s invention is gone from the earth! Until every last stronghold of evil is broken down and utterly destroyed! Until every last hint of sin is cleansed from this place!... FOR I AM HOLY! The only God whose name is One!
Though it greatly pains My heart, a wound which shall last forever... Yet if I do not do this, My people shall never have a name, they shall never dwell in My holy place, they shall never see The Light or know life as it was in the beginning. Until the sanctuary is cleansed I can not dwell with My people, both with them and in them. Unless I make a full end, there can be no restoration. If I do not complete My task, never again shall I walk with My beloved in the garden, never again shall the little children come to Me and gather around.


Open your eyes! Cast yourselves down!
Let your hearts melt before The Holy Fire!...

Embrace My Purifying Flame.

My dying children! YOU ARE THE LAST GENERATION!...

The last of these kingdoms of men.


I love you... Yet you choose death! You have forsaken Me and forced My hand! The stink of your perversions fills My nostrils! Your murders stain My courts! The broken bodies of the innocent and the blameless are piled up in heaps, before My eyes!...
And still you say within yourselves, “We have done no wrong, we have provoked no god to anger... There is no judgment to come. We do not retain God in our thoughts, His Law is far from us... We do not know Him, nor do we need Him”...
O most wicked and loathsome generation! I HAVE SEEN IT!... I have seen and know! The Living God has come down! The Salvation of God is here!... He has seen and knows. He has searched, He has went through the multitudes and looked... He has looked deep within.
He has called and pleaded... Behold, He has poured Himself out!... And still His life departs from this people. His light is all but gone from their eyes, as they fade into a slumber from which there is no escape, a sleep from which the wicked of heart shall never awake... Death...


What a horrible and sad thing this is...

What a mournful cry is heard
From the mouth of The Holy One of Israel...

“My people! Beloved children!...

WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?!”


Thus I must finish My Book and close this chapter. For the desolate shall have no name, and this most wicked generation is cut off from their legacy. Their wickedness shall not rise up a second time! They shall never again pass this way or be seen of again... A whole generation of dead and dying people, a great multitude of peoples who refuse to drink... A great and mighty people slain by their own hand...


A whole generation of children,
Of whom I have loved with My whole heart...

Even unto death...

A whole generation wiped from the face of the earth.


Even so...

Amen.

To the Nation, Once Called of Itself “Under God”, and To The Sons of Ishmael, and to the Churches of Men... Hear the Word of The Lord!

From God The Father and Jesus The Christ, Our Lord and Savior - A Letter Given to Timothy, For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

[God The Father] Timothy, you are My servant... Doubt not yourself, nor My words I shall speak to you this day. For you are delivered out of the hand of the oppressor and of even all he shall send against you. You are My prophet, and you shall endure... Even by the power of My Right Hand, I shall prosper you.
You shall grow strong, and proclaim My strong Word to those who are close and to those who are afar off. You shall speak to the believer and the heathen alike, and shout My proclamation and My judgement against the heathen and your enemy, Ishmael.
Even My judgment against your own nation shall you proclaim in a loud voice, in all manner of speaking and devices. For your land has gone the way of the wicked and the heathen; even Sodom and Gomorrah are revived and now thrive before My face, within your borders. Yet I withhold My hand, for the sake of the elect... They shall shortly be taken out of the way.


Behold, I am against you, oh nation of harlots!...

I had made you strong and gave you blessings beyond compare,
Yet you turn your face from Me, even The One who bought you in His own blood!...

Beaten, scourged and mocked, even pierced for your transgressions!

Yet you turn your back on Him and use His name,
Even the very name I Myself have given Him, as a cursing!...

Desecration! Blasphemy!

Therefore you, oh nation not desired,
YOU are given into the hands of your enemies!


And they shall kill you and burn you with fire, and tear down all your tall towers! And you shall raise your hand, in great anger and haste, and repay them double! Says The Lord of Hosts. For as you are given up, so shall they be given to you for retribution. Even double shall you afflict them, even double shall they receive at your hand!... A strong wind and a dark storm, a great whirlwind shall you be in your vengeance!


Yet the end is not yet...

For you have those among you,
Who I know and see of Myself in them...

I must take them, I shall surely deliver them.


Then you shall fall, oh mighty nation, and great shall be your falling! For then shall arise one whom you shall fear, and all who feared you shall fear him; and those who served you, you shall serve. And you will not be satisfied, and you will grumble and not sit still, but in false hope you shall rise up and meet your end... Plucked up and put underfoot, by him who is called wickedness and lying.

Churches, hear The Word of The Lord: You also refuse to hear, nor do you listen to what The Lord speaks to His flocks, therefore cup your ears and give heed. Churches of men, listen to what The Lord your God says, and give heed!...
You have all gone your own way and corrupted My Word, for your own glory! Pride is your master, and greed has entered into your houses, houses which bear MY name!... Blasphemy!... I dwell not in any church made by human hands. I dwell in the temples made by My own hands.
Oh churches of arrogance, how shall I gather you, when you resist all correction and follow after the vain babblings of men in authority?... Heaping to yourselves teachers, wolves in sheep’s clothing, saying that the Word of God is the way into riches and material things.
Woe, I say to you, who follow these acolytes of satan! False teachers! Soothsayers!... Desolations are coming, and great want! How then shall these silver coins and paper, houses made of brick and wood, save you?! The riches of men shall be taken from them in a day!... What then shall you stand upon, oh men of vanities and vain deceits?


Churches, purify your robes and cast out these leaders,
Who speak as doves and teach doctrines of devils!...

My children, wash your clothes and purify your house,
For The Holy One comes nigh!

Be not left in bitter sorrows...

Refinement, in the heat of The Lord’s Day.


Cast away these false doctrines, stop committing fornication with the harlot. For your mother has forsaken you and serves your enemy, even satan... She shall be left utterly desolate! Repent therefore, and come out of her! Says The Lord. Take not one of her doctrines to yourself.
Return to Me, abide in My Son; He is your Sanctuary from the storm. YahuShua, yes, Jesus is The Gift and Salvation. To Him shall you flock, His flesh shall you eat, His blood shall you drink... Live in His Word and obey My Commandments.

Beloved, your nation is judged and given up... Turn to God! For The Son of Man comes quickly to deliver you! Behold! You shall see the angels of Heaven ascending and descending upon The Son of Man! The sleepers shall awake, and you who are yet awake, having been fully awakened to Him, shall be caught up with them to meet The Lord in the air... And forever shall you be with The Lord!


Purify your faith!
Purify your worship!
Purify your houses!...

Do it now! Says The Lord God, Creator of Heaven and earth.


[Jesus The Christ] I have come, not to make peace but war, even war in My members... The scourging of nations, the wrath of God! The fulfillment, of all that is written, is at hand and shall progress quickly. Yet for the sake of the elect, it shall be cut short.


Beloved of My heart, be not troubled nor weep, these things must be.

Then the end shall come, and I shall show My glory!...

Yea, the heavens, even the whole earth,
Shall be filled with My glory!


I am the power of God’s Right Hand! I shall cleanse the sanctuary, restore the garden, and you shall learn war no more!... NO MORE! Says The Holy One of Israel. For I died... Behold, I am risen! Amen. And so as I died, sin has also died in those who love Me. And that, which leads My people into sin, shall also be destroyed. I shall trample it beneath My feet, grinding it to powder, never to be seen of again nor remembered... Carried away upon the winds of restoration, which I am... A new day begun, and established, atop the setting of the sun upon this age of men.

Thus The Morning Star has risen!... First in the hearts of men, restoring them to glory, the writing of The Holy Law in their hearts. Now I am come, and shall arise and defend the weak and the needy, the afflicted... A great recompense, paid in full, against the wicked and the wickedness of this world!... Vengeance is Mine! Says The Lord. And with a sharp sword, with two edges, shall it be carried out! It shall surely be done!
Behold! The Morning Star is risen! The universe is filled with His glory!... And that glory shall abide with men, even in them and among them. I shall be a Father unto them, and they shall be My beloved children, forever... Lo, a return to innocence. Paradise lost is paradise found, a return to the garden... The universe, your playground.


Thus as I have spoken, so shall it be done...

The mystery of God revealed, the counting of days no more...

Forever young, in the presence of your Shepherd, your Redeemer,
Your Father, your Brother, your Most Beloved Friend...

The Fulfillment of all things,
For which your hearts have groaned...


I AM THE MEANING OF LIFE!...


And all who live in Me, and I in them, WILL LIVE FOREVER!


Amen, and amen.

A Message to “WALL STREET” and to all those who love Unequal Weights and Deceitful Scales




A message to WALL STREET, NEW YORK, and to all those who love dishonest scales and unequal balances and to all those who have ears to hears...

It is written:

“Use honest scales and honest weights, an honest ephah and an honest hin. I am the LORD your God”

"Diverse weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good."

"Unequal weights and unequal measures are both alike an abomination to the LORD."

“The LORD abhors dishonest scales”

"The end has come upon my people Israel;

I will never again pass by them.

The songs of the temple shall become wailings in that day,"

declares the Lord GOD. "So many dead bodies!""They are thrown everywhere!" "Silence!"

Hear this, you who trample on the needy

and bring the poor of the land to an end,

saying, "When will the new moon be over,

that we may sell grain?

And the Sabbath,

that we may offer wheat for sale,

that we may make the ephah small and the shekel great

and deal deceitfully with false balances,

that we may buy the poor for silver

and the needy for a pair of sandals

and sell the chaff of the wheat?"

The LORD has sworn by the pride of Jacob:"Surely I will never forget any of their deeds. Shall not the land tremble on this account,

and everyone mourn who dwells in it,

and all of it rise like the Nile,

and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?"

“Shall not the land tremble for this,

and every one mourn that dwelleth therein?

and it shall rise up wholly as a flood;

and it shall be cast out and drowned,

as by the flood of Egypt.”

The voice of the LORD cries to the city—

and it is sound wisdom to fear your name:

"Hear of the rod and of him who appointed it!

Can I forget any longer the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is accursed?

Shall I acquit the man with wicked scales

and with a bag of deceitful weights?

Your rich men are full of violence;

your inhabitants speak lies,

and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

Therefore I strike you with a grievous blow,

making you desolate because of your sins.


“Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances,

and with the bag of deceitful weights?”

With Whom Will You Be Counted Among Part 3

JOB

“There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job, and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil.” The Lord Himself spoke of Job to Satan saying, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?" Job was the kind of person that carnal minded people would say did not deserve any evil or misfortune in his life because of how good of an individual, father, husband citizen and role model of society he was. But God doesn't think, see or judge like men. "For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart.”

When Satan said to God, "Does Job fear God for no reason? Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. But stretch out your hand and touch all that he has, and he will curse you to your face.”…the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand." God used Satan to rob Job of his wealth and to kill Job’s animals, servants and children. And what was Job’s response to the evil God sent onto him?

“Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head and fell on the ground and worshiped. And he said, "Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD." In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrong.”

Again Satan came before God, “and the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you incited Me against him to destroy him without reason." Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life. But stretch out your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face." And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your hand; only spare his life." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. And he took a piece of broken pottery with which to scrape himself while he sat in the ashes. Then Job’s wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and

die." But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.”

Even though the Lord God Himself described Job as “blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil”, the Lord still had some things to teach Job and some work to do in him. The Lord taught Job that he Job was the created...and that He God was the all wise, all purposing, all just, all powerful and all knowing Creator. The Lord had to cleanse, refine, conform and perfect Job in accordance to His will and purpose for Job's life. The Lord accomplished all this through the needed discipline and counsel He afflicted Job with. At the end of Job’s tribulations and after being confronted and questioned by God, this “blameless and upright” man, “who feared God and turned away from evil” said these last words to the Lord…

"I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted..."

"Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know."

"I had heard of you by the

hearing of the ear,

but now my eye sees you;

therefore I despise myself,

and repent in dust and ashes."

"And the LORD restored Job...And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before...And the LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning."

And the word of the LORD came to me: "Son of man, when a land sins against me by acting faithlessly, and I stretch out my hand against it, even if these three men; Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness, declares the Lord GOD.”

..............................................................................................

So that’s a look at Noah, Daniel and Job…now to us…now to you…

When the Lord brings evil onto us, onto you… and your family, community, town, city, nation and your world as you know it...

through Satan...wicked men, pestilence, famine, sword, beast, earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, floods or however He determines it…

for He has asked, "Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that good and evil come?" Lam 3:38

...and He has said," I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things." Isaiah 45:7

Therefore when the Lord visits, will you be counted among the remnant, the few Noahs, Daniels and Jobs that “would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness”?

Or will you be counted among their many sons and daughters, and wives and husbands, and friends and family that would not be delivered becuase of their unrighteousness?

With whom will you be counted among?

Will you be counted among the few Noahs, Daniels and Jobs that will remain in land or the many that will be cut off from it?

It is written “For the upright will inhabit the land, and those with integrity will remain in it, the blameless will be spared. But the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it.”

And “The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.”

With God, “mercy triumphs over judgment”. But how can there be mercy when there is no repentance?

"O LORD, I have heard the

report of you, and your work,

O LORD, do I fear. In the

midst of the years revive it;

in the midst of the years

make it known; in wrath

remember mercy."

Give ear you righteous ones that have fallen into sin!!...

Give ear you sinners that have not turned to righteousness!!…

"And behold, the LORD

passed by, and a great and

strong wind tore the

mountains and broke in

pieces the rocks before the

LORD, but the LORD was not

in the wind. And after the

wind an earthquake, but the

LORD was not in the

earthquake. And after the

earthquake a fire, but the

LORD was not in the fire. And

after the fire.....

the sound of

a low...

whisper.

“When you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”!!!

With whom will you be counted among???

With Whom Will You Be Counted Among Part 2

NOAH


In a world taken over by evil, violence, corruption and perversion, Noah was the one man at the time who “…found favor (grace) in the eyes of the LORD.” Why? Because “Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations”. He was “a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time”. Noah wasn't just a righteous man, he was the only follower of God left in his community, town, city, and country...and in the whole world at the time. “Noah walked with God.” Living in a society saturated with sin and rebellion against God, Noah was the only man alive that pleased God. Can you imagine such unwavering faithfulness in the midst of such godlessness?

"Noah did everything just as God commanded him."

He obeyed God when everyone else didn’t. He did not conform to the ways and practices of the world around him. He did not follow men. It wasn't that he lived in Rome and thus "did as the Romans did". No...Not Noah. Noah acknowledged God’s presence and His nature; holy, just, loving, fearful... and he lived his life in accordance to this reality, this faith...though everyone else around him did otherwise. Noah wasn’t sinless, but he loved God, and feared God and was obedient to God.


DANIEL


Daniel remained faithful to God while facing many pressures as a captive in Babylon. The King of Babylon was looking for young men with “no blemish, but well-favored, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans” to serve them. To the Chaldeans (Babylonians), Daniel met these requirements. But from day one of his unique captivity, (not to suffer as a prisoner, but to be trained, brought up in the culture of Babylon and to serve the Babylonian Kingdom in an honorable role) “Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself”. He purposed in his heart and determined it in his mind to not dishonor his God by conforming to any of the ways and practices of His captors that went against that of his God. The Lord God had placed Daniel in Babylon to serve Him from there. It is written, “Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.” So Daniel was to serve the Lord from Babylon with sincerity in heart and fearing the Lord. Daniel obeyed what he was instructed to do by the Babylonians and their King but whenever there was a command from his masters that went against his God, Daniel wouldn’t do it. Instead he would honor His God over men at whatever cost. Because of this, Daniel disobeyed some instructs of his masters. In doing so, before God, Daniel was seen as “faithful, and no error or fault was found in him.” When a decree was made that no one should pray to any god but the King of Babylon alone and that disobedience to the decree meant death by lions, it is written that "Daniel, pays no attention to you, O king, or to the decree you put you put in writing. He still prays three times a day." “Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.”

It is written, “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” Daniel is such a righteous man for from his account he said...

“While I was speaking and

praying, confessing my

sin and the sin of my people

Israel, and presenting my

plea before the LORD my

God for the holy hill of my

God, while I was speaking in

prayer, the man Gabriel,

whom I had seen in the

vision at the first, came to

me in swift flight at the time

of the evening sacrifice. He

made me understand,

speaking with me and

saying, "O Daniel, I have now

come out to give you insight

and understanding. At the

beginning of your pleas for

mercy a word went out, and I

have come to tell it to you,

for you are greatly loved.”

With Whom Will You Be Counted Among? Part 1

For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? And
“If the righteous is scarcely saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
1 Peter 4:17-18

If the righteous is repaid on earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!
Proverbs 11:31


And the word of the LORD came to me: "Son of man, when a land sins against me by acting faithlessly, and I stretch out my hand against it and break its supply of bread and send famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast, even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness, declares the Lord GOD.”

In that day, when the wrath of the Lord visits you and your country, your nation, your city, your town, your community, your neighborhood, your family, your household…will you be counted among the remnant, the very few, the scarcely saved that deliver their own lives by their righteousness? Will you be counted among the righteous as like Noah, Daniel and Job? Or will your fate lie with the unrighteous?

“If I cause wild beasts to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so that no one may pass through because of the beasts, even if these three men were in it, as I live, declares the Lord GOD, they would deliver NEITHER sons nor daughters. They ALONE would be delivered, but the land would be desolate.”

In that day, when the fierce anger of the Lord visits you and your country and your city will you be counted among the remnant, the very few, the scarcely saved, that deliver their own lives by their righteousness? Or will you be counted among the many sons or daughters, and many husbands or wives that will not be delivered on the account of someone else’s righteousness?

“Or if I bring a sword upon that land and say, Let a sword pass through the land, and I cut off from it man and beast, though these three men were in it, as I live, declares the Lord GOD, they would deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they alone would be delivered.”

In that day, when the punishment of the Lord visits you and your nation and your town, will you be counted among the remnant, the very few, the scarcely saved, that deliver their own lives by their righteousness? Or will you be counted among the many unrighteous sons and daughter, fathers and mothers that will not be delivered?

“Or if I send a pestilence into that land and pour out my wrath upon it with blood, to cut off from it man and beast, even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, as I live, declares the Lord GOD, they would deliver neither son nor daughter. They would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness.”

In that day, when the fury of the Lord visits you and your community and neighborhood, will you be counted among the remnant, the very few, the scarcely saved, that deliver their own lives by their righteousness? Or will you be counted among the majority of their sons and daughters, or their friends and family that will not be delivered because of their own unrighteousness?

My Lord what if You send an earthquake and roaring waves and floods into the land, What would happen to its inhabitants?

“Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness. They would deliver neither son nor daughter declares the Lord GOD.”


In the day that the Lord’s fierce indignation visits you and your household and your family, will you be counted among the remnant, the very few, the scarcely saved, that deliver their own lives by their righteousness? Our will your fate lie with the unrighteous?

"For thus says the Lord GOD: How much more when I send upon them my disastrous acts of judgment to cut off from it man and beast! But behold, some survivors will be left in it, sons and daughters who will be brought out; behold, when they come out to you, and you see their ways and their deeds, you will be consoled for the disaster that I have brought upon the land, for all that I have brought upon it. They will console you, when you see their ways and their deeds, and you shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, declares the Lord GOD."

The Lion Has Roared



"Do two walk together,
unless they have agreed to meet?
Does a lion roar in the forest,
when he has no prey?
Does a young lion cry out from his den,
if he has taken nothing?
Does a bird fall in a snare on the earth,
when there is no trap for it?
Does a snare spring up from the ground,
when it has taken nothing?
Is a trumpet blown in a city,
and the people are not afraid?
Does disaster come to a city,
unless the LORD has done it?

"For the Lord GOD does nothing
without revealing his secret
to his servants the prophets.
The lion has roared;
who will not fear?

A Message from the LORD to Israel and to the UN General Assembly in NEW YORK



Thus says the Lord to Israel, to the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in NEW YORK, to all the Nations and People of the Earth and to all those who have ears to hear...

Why do the nations rage,

Why do the heathen assemble with commotion?

Why do the nations noisily assemble
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,
"Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us."

"Let us break their bonds asunder:

and let us cast away their yoke from us.."

He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
Then He will speak to them in His
wrath,
terrify them in His fury,

and vex them in His sore displeasure. He says

“Yet have I set My King upon My holy hill of Zion."

I will tell of the decree: The LORD said to me, "He is my Son;
I have begotten Him.
I will make the nations His heritage,
and
the ends of the earth His possession.
He shall
break them with a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like
a potter’s vessel."

Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
Serve the LORD with
fear,
and
rejoice with trembling.
Kiss
the Son,
lest He be angry, and you perish in the way,
for His
wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.

Blessed are all they that put their trust in the Anointed Son of God.


Behold the storm of the LORD!

His wrath is kindled with an EARTHQUAKE!

His fury rises with the ROARING WAVES!


The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back
until He has executed and accomplished
the intentions of His mind.

But who among you has known the mind of the LORD?
In the latter days you will understand this.

For when the LORD’s judgments are in the earth,

the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.


A Word to Benjamin Netanyahu and Uncircumcised Israel



You speak for the rebellious house of Israel, the circumcised in flesh but not in heart. You speak for them and say to the Ishmaelites “We are both the sons of Abraham. My people call him Avraham. Your people call him Ibrahim. We share the same patriarch. Our destinies are intertwined.”

Woe to you arrogant stick-necked people! To this very day you foolishly put your faith in flesh and blood just as your forefather did! Do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God is able to raise up children of Abraham from stones! And indeed he has and continues to fulfill this mystery. For those who have faith in the Anointed Son are made into living stones, being built up as a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through His Son; the Messiah, Jesus, Yeshua, Emmanuel. He came to His own, and His own people did not receive Him. But to all who do receive Him, who believed in His name, He gives them the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see the day of the Anointed Son. He saw it and was glad. You say “Abraham is our father.” But if you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did. What you are doing is not what Abraham did. You are not doing the works of the Father but the works of the father of lies. You stubborn people, uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you.

You are right in that the destines of you and your wild ass of a brother Ishmael are intertwined for you both rebel against the King of Zion anointed by God Himself. Behold, even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees of both brothers. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance. For the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel of God’s favor(grace) in the Anointed Son.

The flesh counts for nothing, NOTHING! For by the flesh you try to keep the law but break it. He that breaks one law breaks them all. Or do you think because you are Jews you are any better off than the people of the nations? No, not at all. For we…ALL are under sin, as it is written:

"None is righteous, no, not one;
no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
no one does good,
not even one."
"Their throat is an open grave;
they use their tongues to deceive."
"The venom of asps is under their lips."
"Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."
"Their feet are swift to shed blood;
in their paths are ruin and misery,
and the way of peace they have not known."
"There is no fear of God before their eyes."

Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God. For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, for no man is able to keep the entire law by his own flesh and works. For by the law comes the knowledge of sin and no man is able to abstain entirely from sin in thought and action by his own will.

The good news, the gospel is this; now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for ALL who believe! For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, yet because of God steadfast love, He offers to all justification by His favor as a GIFT, through the redemption that is in His Anointed Son, Jesus/Yeshua, whom God put forward as a propitiation by His blood, to be received by faith. Through His blood, all sin is ransomed. He is the chosen Lamb of God who takes away all the sins of the world. Therefore it is by faith in the Anointed that the just are to live, neither by sight nor by flesh and works of the flesh, but by faith. This is to show God’s righteousness because in His divine forbearance He had passed over former sins of all those who where under the law. For the one who works, his wages are not reckoned as a gift but as his due yet men in their works to keep the entire law fail and are owned nothing but death. For the wages of sin is death. And the soul who sins shall die. But to the one who does not work, he who does not try to earn, merit or deserve God's gift but instead trusts in Him who justifies the ungodly, such a person’s faith is reckoned as righteousness. The good news is that there is free acquittal for the guilty that stop trying to work for their salvation and stop attempting to impress God and men but instead rest in the Anointed Son who conquers sin and death and imparts righteousness. God’s work through His Son reveals His righteousness in this present time, showing that in His desire that ALL be saved, He is just, showing no partiality or favoritism for He is the justifier of anyone who has faith in His Beloved Son. For it is by the sovereign favor of God that we are saved through faith. And this is not our own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. What boast is there in Abraham being your father when you disobey the Laws of His God and sin against His throne?

Is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of the Nations of the world also? Is the not the God of all the countries in North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia and all the Island nations? Yes, of all peoples and all tongues, since God is one—who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. For by and through faith we all, Jews and the Nations, upload the law. The law is not abolished by faith but fulfilled.

Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by God’s favor and not the works of men to keep the written law, to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all.

Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham.

And if you are the Messiah’s, then you are Abraham's offspring,

heirs according to promise.


“If you, Israel, will return,
then return to me,”
declares the LORD.
“If you put your detestable idols out of my sight
and no longer go astray,
and if in a truthful, just and righteous way
you swear, ‘As surely as the LORD lives,’
then the nations will invoke blessings by him
and in him they will boast.”

This is what the LORD says to the people of Judah and to Jerusalem:

“Break up your unplowed ground
and do not sow among thorns.
Circumcise yourselves to the LORD,
circumcise your hearts,
you people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
or my wrath will flare up and burn like fire
because of the evil you have done—
burn with no one to quench it.

“Announce in Judah and proclaim in Jerusalem and say:
‘Sound the trumpet throughout the land!’
Cry aloud and say:
‘Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities!’
Raise the signal to go to Zion!
Flee for safety without delay!
For I am bringing disaster from the north,
even terrible destruction.”

JEZEBEL


(if you have a slow internet connection like I do, press play, wait for like 10 seconds and then press pause. Let the video download completely, you'll see a grey bar start to form from left to right. Wait until it gets to the end then hit play and enjoy)

JEZEBEL – The Religious Harlot Church System

HARLOT – A prostitute, a whore. A person who engages in undiscriminating casual sex with many sexual partners, for a price.

JEZEBEL uses controlling influence causing people to worship a RELIGIOUS SYSTEM which is not of God!

Acting as the bride of Christ; she is in fact a HARLOT of countless lovers. She is a PROSTITUTE of many denominations; a WHORE of many churches of men. She is the mother of all harlots. She and her daughters are all one in the same. She’s not the body of Christ, but a body of adulterous prostituting whores! She is of this world. “My kingdom is not of this world. My kingdom is not from the world.” She is of the flesh and not of the Spirit of Christ. Before the kingdoms and nations of the world she has an appearance of godliness, holiness and royalty, but before the Almighty she and her daughters and all their high places where they go about fornicating are abominations in His sight.

She is “The spirit of BABYLON!”Behold her towers of Babel men build for her across the all the land! See all her high places the children of God go about whoring in! Come out from her! Come out from them! Lest you partake of her coming plagues! For out of the north there comes up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast. They will take up their positions against her, and from the north she will be captured. The LORD has said, “Out of the north disaster shall be let loose upon all the inhabitants of the land.”

Hear what the Spirit says to the churches

Hear the words of the one who has the sharp two edged sword. Hear the words of the one who possesses the keys to Death and Hades, Here the words of the Son of God who has eyes like a flame of fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. Hear Him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars Hear the words of the Holy One, who has the key of David, who opens and no one will shut, who shuts and no one opens. Hear the words of the Amen. Hear the words of the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world, who alone is worthy to open the scroll and its seven seals. Hear the words of the root of David, the Offspring of Abraham. Hear the Lion from the tribe of Judah. Hear what the Spirit says to the congregations. Hear Him, inhabitants of the world. Hear Him you churches of men.

He has this against you; you tolerate the woman Jezebel, that whore, who poses as my virgin Bride. She calls herself many names; a prophetess, an apostle, a teacher, a pastor, an overseer, a bishop, a reverend, a papa, a father, a mother. She calls herself my house, my church, my dwelling place. “I the Lord do not dwell in houses built by men with mortar and clay, I the Lord do not rest in divided houses.” She lavishes herself with many titles and many dwelling places adorned with precious metals and stones. She is loved, worshipped and glorified by men. Yet she is nothing but a prostitute of many lovers, a whore who spreads her legs at every corner. “Yes you tolerate her and she is teaching and seducing my servants into practicing immorality and idolatry in their hearts.” She is seducing them away from the Lord, with the glory of men, the pride in possessions and status, with riches and wealth that are perishable and do not last. The Lord gave her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her wickedness and immorality. Behold, the Lord will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her, all his servants who go whoring with her, He will throw into great tribulation and suffering, unless they repent of her works. Thus saith the Lord, “I will strike her children dead. And all the churches will know that I am He who searches the mind and heart, and I will give to each of you according to your works. I come quickly, right at the door!”

And you, He has this against you; that you have abandoned the love you had at first to follow the ways of your fathers and forefathers. There is a way that seems right to man but its end is death. This is the path you have chosen since becoming of age. You have taken the broad road that many enter which leads to destruction, yet you perceive it not to be so. It is. “You turned from following me to follow the wicked ways of your fathers. You have lost your way from the narrow path that you started on in your youth.” Remember where you have fallen; remember where you began and how you’ve gone astray over the years by following after the ways of your fathers, by following after the harlot church system of the world. Your fathers all followed after her, now you are ignorantly heading down their path. You honor what they honor, you seek what they seek, you take pride in what they take pride in. Stop your ignorance and rebellion. Stop following the ways of men and following the Lord as you did in your youth. Your path isn’t like theirs. Why have you chosen what He hasn’t desired for you? Remember and repent and do the works you did at first, your works of love and humility, the works you did in meekness and in hiding. Your works that no one saw, but the Lord did. If not He will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place unless you repent and return with your whole heart to Him, forsaking the ways of your fathers. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

And you, He has this against you; you have those who practice the error of Balaam, and those who hold to the teaching of Balaam. Everything they do has a price. Woe to you, teachers of the law and Balaams of the churches, you hypocrites! You teach offerings and tithing and continually speak of money in my childrens ears and of riches of the world but you neglect the more important matters of the law—love, justice, mercy, faithfulness, eternal life, Emmanuel. And it is you who steals from the widows and orphans in offering and tithes, it is you who robs the house of the Lord! You are no Levites. Imposters! “You steal from me yet you place the guilt on those you steal from. Woe to you!” Has the Lord not said, “You received without paying; give without pay. Acquire no gold nor silver nor copper.”? Yet because of your darkened understand you justify your robbery of the weak, the poor and the spiritual babes by twisting His Word to suit the evil desires of your hearts. You place yokes on the children’s necks so that they serve you from their pockets, so that they are chained to you and your temples instead of enjoying the liberty, freedom and rest the Lord freely give. The written code that He abolished on Calvary, which He set His children free from, you wicked hypocrites reinstitute in the Lord’s name! Woe to you! “You commit an abominable act by teaching that My seed, the incorruptible seed which is My Word, the Word of God is money! Woe is you!” They place stumbling blocks before the children of God leading them to idolatry, spiritual fornication and adultery and all manner of immorality in their hearts. The Lord makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and he exalts. Yet you teach people to give offerings and tithes to Baal, so that he might make them rich and exalt them. Is Baal to change the mind of God? Do you dare try to bribe the Lord? How crooked and debased this generation is! “Repent, and seek the teaching of My Spirit, the Spirit of truth, the Spirit who testifies of Me, for as it is now you do not know Me.” Rid yourselves of your harden hearts and let the seed of God be sown in a heart of flesh, that it might take root and bear fruits of repentance. “If you do not repent I will come against you as I did Balaam and all those who followed in his error. I will cut you down with the sword of my mouth with the rest that are slain for practicing divination and who go whoring after the wages of Balaam.” He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

And you, He has this against you; “you follow the way of Cain, presenting offering and sacrifices, that I reject, that I abhor. You worship in a manner I do not accept, you offer service to me in a manner that I do not prescribe. Who taught you this? Have I not told you the worship I desire. I told you, “the hour is coming when neither on mountains nor in Jerusalem (the place of the temple) will you worship the Father. You worship what you do not know. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship Him.” But you reject His worship and still go up to the high places and the Jerusalem of your lands where your temples and churches are to worship. The Lord is not there, He does not dwell in temples built by men! He hasn’t told you to come and meet Him here to worship, or come and experience Him over there. “I reject such worship as I rejected Cain’s. Have I not told you the sacrifices and worship that I accept, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” Yet you reject My Word and reject Me.” With your stiff necks you go on with your sacrifices and worship that are as unrighteous as Cain’s. You offer not in faith, you worship not in spirit and truth but according to the flesh, according to the carnal devices of your debased minds. You have not sought to receive the revelation of what the Father desires from you in offerings, sacrifices and worship as His righteous son Abel did because your understanding is corrupted by your life in the flesh. You live not by faith but by sight. You worship in the error of your fathers, and forefather to this very day. You believe the religion of your fathers is good and acceptable to the Lord as Abel’s was. He does not accept the religion of men, never has and never will. Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world. Repent or else await to see where your religion will lead you in the Day of the Lord. “The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.”Repent or else the Mark of Cain abides on you. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

And you, He has this against you; “You hold to the teachings of dead men who knew me not as I AM.” You believe in the testimony of men that are in the grave and not the testimony of the risen Son of God. You follow after men who no longer walk the face of the earth instead of following after the Lord when it is He who calls you to walk with Him and live as He lives. “Take off the yoke of men you have put on your necks. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Why do you honor the dead and not the one who is the giver of Life? Why do you make idols of those that are in the grave, who speak no longer. The Lord speaks, but you do not listen, He speaks to you but you hear Him not because you have more faith in the oracles of dead men then in the whisper of God. Let the dead be with the dead. “Seek Me who lives forevermore, seek Me in patience and quietness and you will hear My voice.” “If anyone loves me, he will keep My word, and My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.” Repent or else you will be counted among the dead in the grave that you follow. “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. “I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.”

And you, He has this against you; “you are like those who hold to the teachings of dead men, you follow after those you see as alive, but abide in death, those who do great works in My name and call me Lord, and Christ, yet I do not know them.” You follow after those called “men of God” but are sick babes in the Lord’s sight. You seek after those who build towers of Babel in His name, those who hide behind the name of the Son to pursue the selfish intents of their hearts. You follow after men who have not the heart of David, who was after the Lord’s own heart. You follow after pastors and shepherds, who care nothing for you as the Good Shepherd does. They will not lay down their lives for you, but will seek to save themselves and abandon you in The Day He sends the devourer. They will all fall. These men are dead yet you look upon them with your carnal eyes and say they are alive. You say they are blessed and anointed by God. The Messiah neither sent them nor appointed them nor does He know them. They do not the Father’s Will. You would know this if you knew the Lord. Such mennn operate not by the power of the Spirit but by that of demons. The serve not the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, but serve Baals! You leave the Messiah for these men, when it He who is the resurrection and the life? You let them take His place as mediator between you and the Father? You make them your high priest, when the Almighty has appointed Him as High Priest forever, after the Order of Melchizedek? You reject His way for theirs, you neglect His truth for theirs? Is it by the son of God that you get to the Father or through men and their abominable high places? “You let them become your Father and Rabbi when I told you, “you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher” and “call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven.”” Therefore repent, leave these dead men and their doctrines of demons and “come to me while I still call you, while I may be found.” If not, He will come to you soon and war against them and you with the sword of His mouth. He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. “I am the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for His sheep. I know my own and my own know me. A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” “I am the door of the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and robbers. I am the door. Flee from them and come to Me!”

And you, He has this against you; you have a reputation for being alive. You have an appearance of success, fortune, fame, honor and glory. They glory of men feeds your wicked heart. They say you are blessed by the Lord, that is it He who has increased you and multiplied your works. You are known for being alive and well, but you are dead. Wake up! Wake up! Those around, wake up! “For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” Take your eyes of their dead works and look to the Lord! Wake up and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for He has not found your works complete in the sight of God. Put an end to your dead works, repent and bear fruits of repentance. Even now the axe is at the root, and every tree that does not bear good fruit by the true Vine will be cut off and thrown into the fire. Remember what you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If you do not wake up, He will come as a thief and you will not know the hour He will come against you.

And you, He has this against you; He knows your works, you are neither hot nor cold. You are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold. Would that you were either cold or hot, but you choose rather to be a hypocrite! You choose to be in between, to be indifferent. His sword has come to divide and you decide to play both sides. You pick a side only to your convenience and advantage. You are wise in your own eyes, you are careful in your own futile thinking. For you say I’m rich, I need nothing. You say I’m content, when you have nothing at all. You don’t realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. You walk among the multitude of the spiritual dead who think they are alive and so you think you are alive too, you blend in with the walking dead, you go unnoticed among the lost sheep. The Lord offers counsel to you; buy gold refined with fire, and white garments so you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen and salve for your eyes so that you may see! Take heed lest the Lord spit you out because of your lukewarmness. Take heed lest your wisdom and futile caution lead you into the snare you cannot see. “I will honor those who honor me, and I will despise those who think lightly of me.”He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who has a humble spirit, let Him see what the Spirit of the Lord reveals.

Thus saith the Lord,

“Those whom I love, I will reprove, I will correct, I will chasten, I will rebuke, I will discipline.”

“My children, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor be weary when reproved by him. For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.”

In the Day of the Lord remember: “It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

“A fool despises his father’s discipline, but whoever heeds reproof is wise and will live.”

It is written, “But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. When we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.”

“Behold, blessed is the one whom God reproves;
therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty.
For he wounds, but he binds up;
he shatters, but his hands heal.
He will deliver you from six troubles;
in seven no evil
shall touch you.”

But know this, “There is severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; whoever hates reproof will surely die.”

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the congregations. To him who overcomes, I will grant to eat of the tree of life which is in the Paradise of God.”
