Who’s Knocking?

This message needs to be heard, and I hope more are sharing it world wide. The Church is in serious trouble, pastors are preaching non-sense, using gimmicks, ungodly music, light shows, ‘worldly’ props, plans, schemes, mysticism, following Hebraic roots, specialized ministries, books, paganistic rituals, uttlerly idiotic tactics to supposedly “win” people to Christ, or is it to gain more members, to get more money, prestige for the ‘biggest church’, or some other ‘stupid’ yes, I said “stupid” reason.
People’s souls are at stake. There is nothing more precious on this earth than a person’s soul. It is their choice for their final destiny, but every human being must have the Gospel told them and make that choice for themselves. No one can do it for them. There is a HELL and if a person rejects the Lord Jesus Christ, they will join multitudes of others there to burn forever. Heaven is real, and there is only ONE way there, that is through the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ. Every human being on earth has a soul, and every person alive should have the chance for the Truth to be told them, so that they can make the choice. Once they die, it is too late. There is no such thing as a second chance after death, there is no purgatory, limbo or special “place” a person’s soul goes to repent and make it right. Last breath, last chance. Luke 16:20-31.

Jesus said:

John 14:6 (KJV)
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Acts 4:10-12 (KJV)
10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Please take heed what the Word says.

2 Timothy 4:1-4 (KJV)

1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
This nonsense is happening all over the place, especially in America. Itching ears. Why? Man wants his own way, not God’s way. It’s man’s nature, the sin nature, and Satan’s influence that is sweeping the modern day church. And it’s going to get worse and worse as time draws closer to the Lord calling His church home.
They have turned away from the Truth of the Bible and God’s way. There is ONLY one way to God, that is through the Lord Jesus Christ and His sinless sacrifice on the Cross which opened the way. God accepted Jesus as the only sinless sacrifice ever in history, or ever will be, the Blood of Jesus Christ. IT washes away every sin. It is the only way to God, the only way to be saved.
Are today’s churches trying to win people to Jesus….or are they simply trying to grow their membership and make more money? There is only ONE true church, which is the body of Christ, that is the born again BELIEVERS, who believe in the power of the Blood of Jesus Christ, His sacrificial death on the cross, have a constant, current, continuing faith in what HE did at the cross on our behalf. Only the Holy Spirit can “grow” the church. You can’t live any way you choose and “remain” saved…it is possible to get so hardened by sin, to lose your salvation, to turn away from the Lord.

Luke 9:23 (KJV)
23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

Today hear His voice.
Hebrews 3:7 (KJV)
7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Hebrews 3:12-15 (KJV)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

Hebrews 4:7 (KJV)
7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Jesus said:

John 3:5-7 (KJV)

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Back to the deceived church world:
2 Corinthians 6:16-18 (KJV)
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Galatians 1:6-9 (KJV)
6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Jesus had a mission here on earth, He had a work to do, show the Jews the way of salvation. When he rose from the dead and ascended into Heaven, He left a work for every believer to do, and especially those called into the ministry…and I mean those who God has called, not themselves or some friend, or other minister, group, association or church, but God called ministers, I’m talking Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers…..and not everyone is an Apostle or Prophet who thinks they are! They are in actuality few and far between. And likewise, not all who call themselves are an Evangelist, Pastor or Teacher are doing so of the Word of God. Every believer is to spread the Gospel through his personal testimony and faith and not leave that work solely to the minister.
That work is this: to gather every soul into the harvest before harvest time is over. In other words, preach the Word to every soul that they may be saved and escape the wrath to come. Build His Church, His Body, His Bride.
Matthew 9:37-38 (KJV)
37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Mark 16:15-18 (KJV)
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

And YES these things DO still happen today, only not where there is unbelief, or false doctrine preached!

I think this scripture [below] has only been thought to be an evangelistic call to salvation to the unbeliever. Yes, that too, but, who is Jesus talking to? Whose door is He knocking on???
Revelation 3:20 (KJV)
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

HE IS TALKING TO THE CHURCH!!! JESUS IS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR OF THE CHURCH TO GET IN! Or rather, GET BACK IN!! As in the scripture in verse 19 says, REPENT!!!!

Revelation 3:18-19 (KJV)
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

He’s saying HE will make you rich IN HIM, not earthly riches as the church is chasing after so hard, but pure, holy, fully clothed in righteousness before God. Repent that you may not be ashamed to stand before God. He’ll open your eyes to see the Truth. It is only through Jesus Christ, that one can be saved.

Pastor, preacher, take notice:
Ezekiel 33:1-7 (KJV)
1 Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.
5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.
7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

Do you realize, the blood of those who die lost is on your hands if you don’t tell them about Jesus and the way to salvation? Wash the blood off your hands, you must tell the people to repent and believe. Rebuke, exhort with the TRUTH of Scripture about salvation in Christ alone, which is what the entire Bible is about. The journey of sinful man’s beginning, fall and path to God, Salvation through Jesus Christ alone.

1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 2 Timothy 4:1-2 (KJV)
the ‘Word’, meaning God’s Word, the Bible, show them the path to God, the RIGHT path to salvation.

1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV)
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:21 (KJV)
21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

1 Corinthians 2:2 (KJV)
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

Is Jesus standing at your church door knocking to get in?

The group claims that carbon dating proves the relics are 4,800 years old, meaning they date to around the same time the ark was said to be afloat. Mt. Ararat has long been suspected as the final resting place of the craft by evangelicals and literalists hoping to validate biblical stories.

All in All – Chorus

All In All

You are my strength when I am weak

You are the treasure that I seek

You are my all in all

Seeking you as a precious jewel

Lord to give up, I’d be a fool

You are my all in all

Jesus Lamb of God,

worthy is Your name

Jesus Lamb of God,

worthy is Your name

Taking my sin my cross,

my shame Rising again,

I bless Your name

You are my all in all

When I fall down,

You pick me up

When I am dry,

You fill my cup

You are my all in all

Mark 13:8 (KJV)
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

Words are serious business

Matthew 12:34 (KJV)
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

Matthew 12:36 (KJV)
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

Whatever matters most to you, your deepest passion, what is dearest to your heart, is what you will speak of the most.

Proverbs 10:18 (KJV)
18 He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.
1 Peter 3:10 (KJV)
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

Jesse thinks Adam created the animals?!?

Adam (not God, breathed life into animals)…excuse me??

Genesis 2:19 (KJV)
19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

the Ark and two by two animals, and seven…

Genesis 7:8-9 (KJV)
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

Genesis 7:2-3 (KJV)
2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

Genesis 7:14-16 (KJV)
14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.
15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in.

the clean animals, some were for sacrifices.

But you heard on the video, say the animals going on the ark two by two, is not true…maybe a bad choice of words, or maybe some error mixed with truth?

Let’s get this straight, WE ARE NOT GODS, NEITHER CAN WE CREATE OR GIVE LIFE,  other than the reproductive process between a man and a woman. I’ll write more on this in another page concerning the ‘Word of Faith’ doctrine that is so widespread in the church today. It is, and has led many people astray, and if not heeded and realized, will eventually lead them to destruction, if they choose not to believe Truth.

Home Church

The way the churches are becoming full of false prophets, false doctrines, and the world, it’s time for a change, but always go to God for guidance, He may have a place for you to go, if not, then a home church would be great. The church started this way, it could very well be, it’s come, or going to come full circle, back to the same as the first beginnings. Below is an excerpt from another page:

Home Church is Biblical

by 

 Karen Pansler-Lam, J.D.

If the local churches are corrupt, 

 then we must come together in the name of Christ 

 in household worship.

Many true Christians are grieved by the profane modern church.  They hear God’s command:  “Be ye separate” (2 Corinthians 6:17).  But they do not want to forsake Christian assemblies: ”the assembling of ourselves together” (Hebrews 10:25).

 As  always, we must look to God’s Word for guidance:  “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

 Two or three assembling for worship is a church.  Home worship is Biblical. As you know, the early church began by meeting at Christian homes.

Home Church.

Trust Today

The Lord sees all, knows all, and is our only source. We must trust in the Lord alone to do our bidding against our enemies, trust in Him alone, ‘today’ for all things.

Psalms 11:1-7 (KJV)
1 In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

The Lord sees the wicked, and He sees the righteous, those that love Him. He knows the sorrows we have, He knows the “arrows” shot at us by those that do not like us, that hate us, that are trying to bring us down. But in the end, it is all taken care of, the righteous, those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, been forgiven of their sins and washed in His Blood, will be avenged. Not by their own doing, but by the Lord Himself. God has promised to take care of those who love Him, and to do away with the wicked, those that choose to reject Him and the only way to salvation. In the end, it will be, and the end is soon to come.

Hebrews 3:7-15 (KJV)
7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

Today, while it is called “Today”, don’t harden your heart, but accept what the Lord Jesus Christ has done for you.

Hebrews 10:10-18 (KJV)
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

Jesus is the only Way to God, to Heaven, to Life. Take His sacrifice on the Cross, as yours today, while it is called ‘today’, don’t wait, do it now.

John 14:6 (KJV)
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 3:15-18 (KJV)
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
