A study in Luke 19:11-28
Luk 19:11 ASV - And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and [because] they supposed that the kingdom of God was immediately to appear. Rom 14:17 ASV - for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The kingdom of God is among us now its in the hearts of his children.Jesus said when deamons obey your voice of command and go behold the kingdom of God is come upon you. The kingdom is the power of God in his people to live and minister the Gospel in all faithfulnes
Luk 19:12 ASV - He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. This is Jesus coming to his own he is that nobleman. Nobleman in the greek is of noble birth borne of God. He says he has come to do the fathers will,he only speaks what he hears. He has come to render the kingdom back unto his father.
Luk 19:13 ASV - And he called ten servants of his, and gave them ten pounds, and said unto them, Trade ye [herewith] till I come. The Number Ten
It has been already pointed out that ten is one of the perfect numbers, and signifies the perfection of Divine order, commencing, as it does, an altogether new series of numbers. The first decade is the representative of the whole numeral system, and originates the system of calculation called "decimals," because the whole system of numeration consists of so many tens, of which the first is a type of the whole. Completeness of order, marking the entire round of anything, is, therefore, the ever-present signification of the number ten. It implies that nothing is wanting; that the number and order are perfect; that the whole cycle is complete.
Luk 19:14 ASV - But his citizens hated him, and sent an ambassage after him, saying, We will not that this man reign over us. Luk 23:21 ASV - but they shouted, saying, Crucify, crucify him. Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:
Luk 19:15 ASV - And it came to pass, when he was come back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants, unto whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by trading. 2Cr 5:10 ASV - For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things [done] in the body, according to what he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad. Jhn 15:8 ASV - Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and [so] shall ye be my disciples. Jhn 4:34 ASV - Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
Rev 20:12 ASV - And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Rev 20:15 ASV - And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.\
Luk 19:16 ASV - And the first came before him, saying, Lord, thy pound hath made ten pounds more. Jhn 12:24 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it beareth much fruit.
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.
Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and [so] shall ye be my disciples.
Luk 19:17 ASV - And he said unto him, Well done, thou good servant: because thou wast found faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities Rev 17:14 ASV - These shall war against the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings; and they [also shall overcome] that are with him, called and chosen and faithful.
Luk 19:18 ASV - And the second came, saying, Thy pound, Lord, hath made five pounds.
Luk 19:19 ASV - And he said unto him also, Be thou also over five cities . Mat 25:21 ASV - His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Luk 19:20 ASV - And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy pound, which I kept laid up in a napkin: Hbr 11:6 ASV - And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.
Luk 19:21 ASV - for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that which thou layedst not down, and reapest that which thou didst not sow. Austere in Greek Strong's Number: g840 Greek: austeros
Austere: Austeros is not necessarily a term of reproach, whereas skleros is always so, and indicates a harsh, even inhuman, character. Austeros is "rather the exaggeration of a virtue pushed too far, It is to challange the love of God against his word for we are all bound to his word
Luk 19:22 ASV - He saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up that which I laid not down, and reaping that which I did not sow; Mat 15:11 ASV - Not that which entereth into the mouth defileth the man; but that which proceedeth out of the mouth, this defileth the man.
Mat 15:18 ASV - But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out of the heart; and they defile the man. Pro 4:23 ASV - Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life. Luk 6:45 ASV - The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man] out of the evil [treasure] bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Luk 19:23 ASV - then wherefore gavest thou not my money into the bank, and I at my coming should have required it with interest? The word bank here means a table to eat on to consume, Jhn 6:51 ASV - I am the living bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world. the pound here is the gift of the word of God to produce fruit of the spirit
Luk 19:24 ASV - And he said unto them that stood by, Take away from him the pound, and give it unto him that hath the ten pounds. The natural or fleshly thing to do here is become jealous and envious of another brother,he already has plenty why give him more lord
Luk 19:25 ASV - And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.
Luk 19:26 ASV - I say unto you, that unto every one that hath shall be given; Manifesting the righteous word,living the whole word with fear and conviction, Isa 61:3 ASV - to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. Garland in Heb head-dress, ornament, turban or crown of life. Ashes in this verse Heb worthlessness. 1Cr 1:26 ASV - For behold your calling, brethren, that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:
1Cr 1:27 ASV - but God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;
1Cr 1:28 ASV - and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, [yea] and the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are:
1Cr 1:29 ASV - that no flesh should glory before God.
1Cr 1:30 ASV - But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:
but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him. Rev 3:5 ASV - He that overcometh shall thus be arrayed in white garments; and I will in no wise blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. The word Blot in this verse in greek Strong's Number: g1813 Greek: exaleipho
Blot Out:
from ek, "out," used intensively, and aleipho, "to wipe," signifies "to wash, or to smear completely." Hence, metaphorically, in the sense of removal, "to wipe away, wipe off, obliterate;" Act 3:19, of sins; Col 2:14, of writing; Rev 3:5, of a name in a book; Rev 7:17; 21:4, of tears.
Luk 19:27 ASV - But these mine enemies, that would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me. 1Jo 2:18 ASV - Little children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour.
2Jo 1:7 ASV - For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, [even] they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.

Jhn 12:13 ASV - took the branches of the palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried out, Hosanna: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel.
Jhn 12:14 ASV - And Jesus, having found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
Jhn 12:15 ASV - Fear not, daughter of Zion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
Jhn 12:16 ASV - These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
Luk 9:51 ASV - And it came to pass, when the days were well-nigh come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, Isa 50:7 KJV - For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
Hbr 13:10 NLT - We have an altar from which the priests in the Temple on earth have no right to eat.
Hbr 13:11 NLT - Under the system of Jewish laws, the high priest brought the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, but the bodies of the animals were burned outside the camp.
Hbr 13:12 NLT - So also Jesus suffered and died outside the city gates in order to make his people holy by shedding his own blood.

Let your little light shine
Psa 133:1 ASV - A Song of Ascents; of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!
Psa 133:2 ASV - It is like the precious oil upon the head, That ran down upon the beard, Even Aaron's beard; That came down upon the skirt of his garments;
Psa 133:3 ASV - Like the dew of Hermon, That cometh down upon the mountains of Zion: For there Jehovah commanded the blessing, Even life for evermore.
1 Peter 4
So then, since Christ suffered physical pain, you must arm yourselves with the same attitude he had, and be ready to suffer, too. For if you are willing to suffer for Christ, you have decided to stop sinning. And you won't spend the rest of your life chasing after evil desires, but you will be anxious to do the will of God. You have had enough in the past of the evil things that godless people enjoy--their immorality and lust, their feasting and drunkenness and wild parties, and their terrible worship of idols. Of course, your former friends are very surprised when you no longer join them in the wicked things they do, and they say evil things about you.
But just remember that they will have to face God, who will judge everyone, both the living and the dead. That is why the Good News was preached even to those who have died--so that although their bodies were punished with death, they could still live in the spirit as God does.
The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers.
Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay.
God has given gifts to each of you from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Manage them well so that God's generosity can flow through you. Are you called to be a speaker? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Are you called to help others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then God will be given glory in everything through Jesus Christ. All glory and power belong to him forever and ever. Amen.Dear friends, don't be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. Instead, be very glad--because these trials will make you partners with Christ in his suffering, and afterward you will have the wonderful joy of sharing his glory when it is displayed upon you.
If you suffer, however, it must not be for murder, stealing, making trouble, or prying into other people's affairs.But it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called by his wonderful name! Be happy if you are insulted for being a Christian, for then the glorious Spirit of God will come upon you. For the time has come for judgment, and it must begin first among God's own children. And if even we Christians must be judged, what terrible fate awaits those who have never believed God's Good News? And "If the righteous are barely saved, what chance will the godless and sinners have?"So if you are suffering according to God's will, keep on doing what is right, and trust yourself to the God who made you, for he will never fail you.
Eph 5:25 ASV - Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;
that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,
that he might present the church to himself a glorious [church], not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church.
Psa 133:2 ASV - It is like the precious oil upon the head, That ran down upon the beard, Even Aaron's beard; That came down upon the skirt of his garments;
Psa 133:3 ASV - Like the dew of Hermon, That cometh down upon the mountains of Zion: For there Jehovah commanded the blessing, Even life for evermore.

If we look we can see the world around us degrading and falling into great depths up evil , Sex and perversion every where. Evil is abounding and it is the word coming true in our life's. Good is bad and bad is good. To stand for righteousness and truth is coming unto judgment. But we that are of faith we are made strong by this great word of righteousness. I am saying that we must wake up and realize where we are in the Lord as in the days of Noah, wickedness is rampant and I feel that we are sheltered to the fact of just how evil this world has gone. But the Holy Ghost in us is our discerning strength, our help in time of need . There is a shaking coming and Gods people will stand Hbr 11:6 ASV - And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.
Hbr 11:7 ASV - By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. Hbr 12:26 ASV - whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
Hbr 12:27 ASV - And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
Hbr 12:28 ASV - Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
Hbr 12:29 ASV - for our God is a consuming fire. I believe now is the time of warning to all Gods people, That we seek him in all deligence for our salvation,the time is drawing near when the earth will convulse and turn and spin out of control,but that which remains is the Lords doing and he is our shield our strong tower to run into. Have I lost my mind! I hope so,
Rom 12:1 ASV - I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your spiritual service.
Rom 12:2 ASV - And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
I said long ago Lord how do I renew my mind how is this to be done ,and in my mind I heard by my word ,by my word . So as we live this word the gospel we let it take root in our hearts and as we obey it renews us, it brings about the working of children to sons that's Gods calling,why does it say SONS, does that mean that God is calling us to be like his first fruit JESUS, to be just like Jesus to be a son of God, If we manifest the fruit of the spirit we manifest Jesus in our flesh, and so our minds are renewed daily. If God be for us who can be against us, So how do we know that God is for us how do we know he will do what his word says he will do, Jhn 8:42 ASV - Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I came forth and am come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me.
Jhn 14:15 ASV - If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. Its very simple we read this word and we obey we obey by the willingness of excepting Gods grace we are saved by his grace and his grace is the power to overcome, Grace is living under Gods benefits,his promises for you and me. Now one more word Rev 3:15 ASV - I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 ASV - So because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spew thee out of my mouth. The word spew or spit Strong's Number: g1692 Greek: emeo
Spew (AV, Spue):
"to vomit" (cp. Eng., "emetic"), is used in Rev 3:16, figuratively of the Lord's utter abhorrence of the condition of the church at Laodicea. In the Sept., Isa 19:14. Its the word that is true and this word will judge us in the end. It says with his mouth, He spoke everything in to existence the logos of God, his word.
Mat 7:13 ASV - Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. The Narrow or strait gate in greek Strong's Number: g4728 Greek: stenos
Narrow:
from a root sten--, seen in stenazo, "to groan," stenagmos, "groaning" (Eng., "stenography," lit., "narrow writing"), is used figuratively in Mat 7:13, 14, of the gate which provides the entrance to eternal life, "narrow" because it runs counter to natural inclinations, and "the way" is similarly characterized; so in Luk 13:24 (where the more intensive word agonizomai, "strive," is used); RV, "narrow" (AV, "strait") in each place. Cp. stenochoreo, "to be straitened," and stenochoria, "narrowness, anguish, distress."
STRAIT IN THE GREEK Strong's Number: g4912 Greek: sunecho
Constrain, Constraint:
"to hold together, confine, secure, to hold fast" (echo, "to have or hold"), "to constrain," is said
(a) of the effect of the word of the Lord upon Paul, Act 18:5 (AV, "was pressed in spirit," RV, "was constrained by the word"); of the effect of the love of Christ, 2Cr 5:14; The only way into his gate is by his word. The word says ignorance is no excuse, Jesus said Jhn 15:3 ASV - Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you. This word will cleanse you or condemn you but when we hear it it becomes binding. Yes God is love and that is why he sent his word ,he sent his word to heal us,deliver us and according to ISAIAH 61 to set the captives free. Isa 61:1 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening [of the prison] to them that are bound;
Isa 61:2 ASV - to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
Isa 61:3 ASV - to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. This says to proclaim his favor and also his vengeance. Thats why John said he would baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with FIRE, Jesus said Mat 10:34 KJV - Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mat 10:35 KJV - For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Mat 10:36 KJV - And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.
Mat 10:37 KJV - He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

If we look we can see the world around us degrading and falling into great depths up evil , Sex and perversion every where. Evil is abounding and it is the word coming true in our life's. Good is bad and bad is good. To stand for righteousness and truth is coming unto judgment. But we that are of faith we are made strong by this great word of righteousness. I am saying that we must wake up and realize where we are in the Lord as in the days of Noah, wickedness is rampant and I feel that we are sheltered to the fact of just how evil this world has gone. But the Holy Ghost in us is our discerning strength, our help in time of need . There is a shaking coming and Gods people will stand Hbr 11:6 ASV - And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.
Hbr 11:7 ASV - By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. Hbr 12:26 ASV - whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
Hbr 12:27 ASV - And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
Hbr 12:28 ASV - Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
Hbr 12:29 ASV - for our God is a consuming fire. I believe now is the time of warning to all Gods people, That we seek him in all deligence for our salvation,the time is drawing near when the earth will convulse and turn and spin out of control,but that which remains is the Lords doing and he is our shield our strong tower to run into. Have I lost my mind! I hope so,
Rom 12:1 ASV - I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your spiritual service.
Rom 12:2 ASV - And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
I said long ago Lord how do I renew my mind how is this to be done ,and in my mind I heard by my word ,by my word . So as we live this word the gospel we let it take root in our hearts and as we obey it renews us, it brings about the working of children to sons that's Gods calling,why does it say SONS, does that mean that God is calling us to be like his first fruit JESUS, to be just like Jesus to be a son of God, If we manifest the fruit of the spirit we manifest Jesus in our flesh, and so our minds are renewed daily. If God be for us who can be against us, So how do we know that God is for us how do we know he will do what his word says he will do, Jhn 8:42 ASV - Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I came forth and am come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me.
Jhn 14:15 ASV - If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. Its very simple we read this word and we obey we obey by the willingness of excepting Gods grace we are saved by his grace and his grace is the power to overcome, Grace is living under Gods benefits,his promises for you and me. Now one more word Rev 3:15 ASV - I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 ASV - So because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spew thee out of my mouth. The word spew or spit Strong's Number: g1692 Greek: emeo
Spew (AV, Spue):
"to vomit" (cp. Eng., "emetic"), is used in Rev 3:16, figuratively of the Lord's utter abhorrence of the condition of the church at Laodicea. In the Sept., Isa 19:14. Its the word that is true and this word will judge us in the end. It says with his mouth, He spoke everything in to existence the logos of God, his word.
Mat 7:13 ASV - Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. The Narrow or strait gate in greek Strong's Number: g4728 Greek: stenos
Narrow:
from a root sten--, seen in stenazo, "to groan," stenagmos, "groaning" (Eng., "stenography," lit., "narrow writing"), is used figuratively in Mat 7:13, 14, of the gate which provides the entrance to eternal life, "narrow" because it runs counter to natural inclinations, and "the way" is similarly characterized; so in Luk 13:24 (where the more intensive word agonizomai, "strive," is used); RV, "narrow" (AV, "strait") in each place. Cp. stenochoreo, "to be straitened," and stenochoria, "narrowness, anguish, distress."
STRAIT IN THE GREEK Strong's Number: g4912 Greek: sunecho
Constrain, Constraint:
"to hold together, confine, secure, to hold fast" (echo, "to have or hold"), "to constrain," is said
(a) of the effect of the word of the Lord upon Paul, Act 18:5 (AV, "was pressed in spirit," RV, "was constrained by the word"); of the effect of the love of Christ, 2Cr 5:14; The only way into his gate is by his word. The word says ignorance is no excuse, Jesus said Jhn 15:3 ASV - Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you. This word will cleanse you or condemn you but when we hear it it becomes binding. Yes God is love and that is why he sent his word ,he sent his word to heal us,deliver us and according to ISAIAH 61 to set the captives free. Isa 61:1 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening [of the prison] to them that are bound;
Isa 61:2 ASV - to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
Isa 61:3 ASV - to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. This says to proclaim his favor and also his vengeance. Thats why John said he would baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with FIRE, Jesus said Mat 10:34 KJV - Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mat 10:35 KJV - For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Mat 10:36 KJV - And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.
Mat 10:37 KJV - He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Mat 10:38 KJV - And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
Mat 10:39 KJV - He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. Its time to surrender to fall on the rock of Christ. Mat 21:42 KJV - Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Mat 21:43 KJV - Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Mat 21:44 KJV - And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. This is not hard this is MERCY !
GOD BLESS YOU ALL

We have a city not made with hands
The web site below is something that confirms the word of God and what is coming upon the earth,the true church of God will be persecuted.
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=1741
These people are endorsing homosexually and only the lord knows what else. These are the people that Peter spoke about , 2Pe 2:1 ASV - But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
2Pe 2:2 ASV - And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of.
2Pe 2:3 ASV - And in covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose sentence now from of old lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not.
2Pe 2:4 ASV - For if God spared not angels when they sinned, but cast them down to hell, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
2Pe 2:5 ASV - and spared not the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;
2Pe 2:6 ASV - and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, having made them an example unto those that should live ungodly; Its the greed and the power they want, if there is a falling away we need to realize that time on this earth is getting shorter. We can tell when it is about to rain Jesus said but we cant tell that a flood of evil is coming upon this earth and this country.Jon 2:8 ASV - They that regard lying vanities Forsake their own mercy. Jon 3:4 ASV - And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
Jon 3:5 ASV - And the people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
Jon 3:6 ASV - And the tidings reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
Jon 3:7 ASV - And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed, nor drink water;
Jon 3:8 ASV - but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and beast, and let them cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands.
Jon 3:9 ASV - Who knoweth whether God will not turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
Jon 3:10 ASV - And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil which he said he would do unto them; and he did it not.
I am writing this in regards to the many that set under this Apostate ministry and there is repentance for them. But the sins of the king will be placed upon those that agree with him and sin separates people from God. Joshua lead the children over into the promise land and and God gave specific rules to follow, As I read this my heart gets heavy and I remember the first time I read this passage, Achan represents all the people that set themselves in a place of authority. Such as we see today, many are called but few are chosen. Achan made a decision to sin against God and take and commit this thing in direct disobedience not only to God but the people of the whole camp. Therefore not only Achan but the people were struck by God because of one mans sin against God. Thirty six men lost their lifes to start with and then the whole tribe was judged. Only Achan committed the sin but he was a part of the whole family, if people align themselves with these men they become a part of their sin and God will judge accordingly.
That is how devastating sin can be in your family the sins of the fathers go down unto the children. Achans whole family and all his possessions died with him ,because of his sin. It is so important to see this, God made monument of the rocks that covered them, to remember his word by. So every one under Achan was put to death. Many people died because of one mans sin. The main part of this is Jos 7:13 ASV - Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow: for thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, There is a devoted thing in the midst of thee, O Israel; thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the devoted thing from among you.When sin enters, satan puts a death grip on you and everyone in your family,mothers and fathers. The devil will heap condemnation upon those who have sin in their life's ,and they will be totally ineffective in there work for God. The bible says if your heart condemns you not. And sin will not only destory you but everyone around you. Why is it ,that people hide sin ,God knows everything he sees everything. Because their hearts are under condemnation. Thus the so called church of God the worldly church is of no effect. 2Ti 3:5 ASV - holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away. 1Jo 4:2 ASV - Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: Do you have the Holy Ghost are you sealed for the day of redemption, do you believe in the gifts of the spirit,if you believe that Christ lives in you that he has come in your flesh.He has!!! come in the flesh,he said three days and I will rebuild Gods temple, its in your hearts, the hearts of men is where God lives. Than you are in the family of God and called according to his working. 1John 4 says that the people that do not believe this they are of the Antichrist. Now there is the true church and there is the false church , ask God for understanding, this word of God will deliver many and this word will judge many. Yes God is a God of mercy and he is also a God judgment he is bound to his word. I am saying all this to people that God has mercy for ,there is a window open now for his gift of repentance ,ask for it ,to be sorry for your sins with Godly sorrow 2Cr 7:10 ASV - For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, [a repentance] which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world works death. People that are not sorry have sorrow of the world they go to the altar every time they meet with no results because there is no true repentance. Jesus died once and that is sufficient, You can not put him on the cross continually, Hbr 10:25 ASV - not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting [one another]; and so much the more, as ye see the day drawing nigh.
Hbr 10:26 ASV - For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth,( There Remaineth No More a Sacrifice for Sins ) with disgrace and contempt the word says
Hbr 10:27 ASV - but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries. These men have put themselves in a place over Gods sheep a place which they were never called. Mat 7:15 KJV - Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mat 9:36 KJV - But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Jer 23:1 KJV - Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD. When persecution comes they will run away leaving the sheep. 2Pe 2:3 KJV - And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. But God has a better plan for you and in his hand there is safety, Psalm 91 tells us of his love for us. Hbr 12:14 ASV - Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord: Without Sanctification no man shall see God, there is so many lies in the church today do you really believe once saved always saved,where is that verse, sanctification
Strong's Number: g38 Greek: hagiasmos
Holiness, Holy, Holily:
translated "holiness" in the AV of Rom 6:19, 22; 1Th 4:7; 1Ti 2:15; Hbr 12:14, is always rendered "sanctification" in the RV. It signifies
(a) separation to God, 1Cr 1:30; 2Th 2:13; 1Pe 1:2;
(b) the resultant state, the conduct befitting those so separated, 1Th 4:3, 4, 7, and the four other places mentioned above. "Sanctification" is thus the state predetermined by God for believers, into which in grace He calls them, and in which they begin their Christian course and so pursue it. Hence they are called "saints" (hagioi).
See SANCTIFICATION. We are not sinners saved by grace, we are saved by his grace never to sin again. If you have sin read Roms 6 we are not sinners any more we have been freed from the hold of sin we don't have to sin anymore. Stand up into the light and ask God to show you his will for you and that holiness he is requiring of us. You can be holy you can walk in victory, the word says who ever is set free in Jesus is free indeed. Its not man made religion that will save you, its this word, this perfect word. Mat 5:14 ASV - Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. Jhn 8:12 ASV - Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Jhn 1:4 ASV - In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Jhn 1:9 ASV - There was the true light, [even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world.
Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: There are very dark times coming upon the earth, there will be a flood again but not a flood of water as of old , Rev 12:15 ASV - And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water as a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream. This flood will be the words spoken by the Antichrist people, working for satan he will judge and accuse ,and speak words as a flood against Gods people. A great flood of evil is coming upon this nation and this earth. But God has already made away of escape for his people Rev 12:16 ASV - And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Listen this is the word of God (I am talking about the scripture) hear him and he is merciful and kind , NLT Heb 12 :25 See to it that you obey God, the one who is speaking to you. For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, how terrible our danger if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven! That window is open wide, these worldly ministers will slam it shut for you if you believe them. God has wonderful men and women called of God full of the Holy Ghost with signs and wonders following,with faith and conviction of this glorious word. Ask the Father to lead you and show the way to theses people they are close by. Mal 4:1 ASV - For, behold, the day cometh, it burneth as a furnace; and all the proud, and all that work wickedness, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith Jehovah of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Jam 1:21 ASV - Wherefore putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
Hbr 10:26 ASV - For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more a sacrifice for sins, Please read this carefully, God does not wink at sin there is no little white lies ,sin will separate you from God, and for those that have the Holy Ghost do you realize Jesus is in you and he is watching you, I know this from personal experience,the lord spoke this to me in a day of rebellion and it broke my heart Hbr 6:4 ASV - For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
Hbr 6:5 ASV - and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come,
Hbr 6:6 ASV - and [then] fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. We all need the fear of GOD in us to have a Godly reverence for his word. the narrow gate which leads to salvation is filled with obstacles, and the farther you get to that precious gate those hindrances that come before you, they must be CAST DOWN !! will bring you lower and lower until you enter on your face before the lord . And his grace is our strength to over come, in our weakness he is made strong, 1Cr 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
1Cr 15:48 ASV - As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
1Cr 15:49 ASV - And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
We must hold fast to the word of God and obey his commandments, God called us to bring forth much fruit, And when he purges us,cuts back our branches, he is loving us, wanting us to grow in his grace. Gal 5:1 ASV - For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage. But with boldness let your yes be yes and your no be no. Hbr 10:22 ASV - let us draw near with a true heart in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water,
1Jo 3:19 ASV - Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:
1Jo 3:21 ASV - Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God;
1Jo 3:22 ASV - and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
1Jo 3:23 ASV - And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment.
1Jo 3:24 ASV - And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
God bless you all

Jon 3:10 ASV - And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil which he said he would do unto them; and he did it not.
I am writing this in regards to the many that set under this Apostate ministry and there is repentance for them. But the sins of the king will be placed upon those that agree with him and sin separates people from God. Joshua lead the children over into the promise land and and God gave specific rules to follow, As I read this my heart gets heavy and I remember the first time I read this passage, Achan represents all the people that set themselves in a place of authority. Such as we see today, many are called but few are chosen. Achan made a decision to sin against God and take and commit this thing in direct disobedience not only to God but the people of the whole camp. Therefore not only Achan but the people were struck by God because of one mans sin against God. Thirty six men lost their lifes to start with and then the whole tribe was judged. Only Achan committed the sin but he was a part of the whole family, if people align themselves with these men they become a part of their sin and God will judge accordingly.
That is how devastating sin can be in your family the sins of the fathers go down unto the children. Achans whole family and all his possessions died with him ,because of his sin. It is so important to see this, God made monument of the rocks that covered them, to remember his word by. So every one under Achan was put to death. Many people died because of one mans sin. The main part of this is Jos 7:13 ASV - Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow: for thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, There is a devoted thing in the midst of thee, O Israel; thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the devoted thing from among you.When sin enters, satan puts a death grip on you and everyone in your family,mothers and fathers. The devil will heap condemnation upon those who have sin in their life's ,and they will be totally ineffective in there work for God. The bible says if your heart condemns you not. And sin will not only destory you but everyone around you. Why is it ,that people hide sin ,God knows everything he sees everything. Because their hearts are under condemnation. Thus the so called church of God the worldly church is of no effect. 2Ti 3:5 ASV - holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away. 1Jo 4:2 ASV - Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: Do you have the Holy Ghost are you sealed for the day of redemption, do you believe in the gifts of the spirit,if you believe that Christ lives in you that he has come in your flesh.He has!!! come in the flesh,he said three days and I will rebuild Gods temple, its in your hearts, the hearts of men is where God lives. Than you are in the family of God and called according to his working. 1John 4 says that the people that do not believe this they are of the Antichrist. Now there is the true church and there is the false church , ask God for understanding, this word of God will deliver many and this word will judge many. Yes God is a God of mercy and he is also a God judgment he is bound to his word. I am saying all this to people that God has mercy for ,there is a window open now for his gift of repentance ,ask for it ,to be sorry for your sins with Godly sorrow 2Cr 7:10 ASV - For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, [a repentance] which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world works death. People that are not sorry have sorrow of the world they go to the altar every time they meet with no results because there is no true repentance. Jesus died once and that is sufficient, You can not put him on the cross continually, Hbr 10:25 ASV - not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting [one another]; and so much the more, as ye see the day drawing nigh.
Hbr 10:26 ASV - For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth,( There Remaineth No More a Sacrifice for Sins ) with disgrace and contempt the word says
Hbr 10:27 ASV - but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries. These men have put themselves in a place over Gods sheep a place which they were never called. Mat 7:15 KJV - Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mat 9:36 KJV - But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Jer 23:1 KJV - Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD. When persecution comes they will run away leaving the sheep. 2Pe 2:3 KJV - And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. But God has a better plan for you and in his hand there is safety, Psalm 91 tells us of his love for us. Hbr 12:14 ASV - Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord: Without Sanctification no man shall see God, there is so many lies in the church today do you really believe once saved always saved,where is that verse, sanctification
Strong's Number: g38 Greek: hagiasmos
Holiness, Holy, Holily:
translated "holiness" in the AV of Rom 6:19, 22; 1Th 4:7; 1Ti 2:15; Hbr 12:14, is always rendered "sanctification" in the RV. It signifies
(a) separation to God, 1Cr 1:30; 2Th 2:13; 1Pe 1:2;
(b) the resultant state, the conduct befitting those so separated, 1Th 4:3, 4, 7, and the four other places mentioned above. "Sanctification" is thus the state predetermined by God for believers, into which in grace He calls them, and in which they begin their Christian course and so pursue it. Hence they are called "saints" (hagioi).
See SANCTIFICATION. We are not sinners saved by grace, we are saved by his grace never to sin again. If you have sin read Roms 6 we are not sinners any more we have been freed from the hold of sin we don't have to sin anymore. Stand up into the light and ask God to show you his will for you and that holiness he is requiring of us. You can be holy you can walk in victory, the word says who ever is set free in Jesus is free indeed. Its not man made religion that will save you, its this word, this perfect word. Mat 5:14 ASV - Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. Jhn 8:12 ASV - Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Jhn 1:4 ASV - In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Jhn 1:9 ASV - There was the true light, [even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world.
Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: There are very dark times coming upon the earth, there will be a flood again but not a flood of water as of old , Rev 12:15 ASV - And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water as a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream. This flood will be the words spoken by the Antichrist people, working for satan he will judge and accuse ,and speak words as a flood against Gods people. A great flood of evil is coming upon this nation and this earth. But God has already made away of escape for his people Rev 12:16 ASV - And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Listen this is the word of God (I am talking about the scripture) hear him and he is merciful and kind , NLT Heb 12 :25 See to it that you obey God, the one who is speaking to you. For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, how terrible our danger if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven! That window is open wide, these worldly ministers will slam it shut for you if you believe them. God has wonderful men and women called of God full of the Holy Ghost with signs and wonders following,with faith and conviction of this glorious word. Ask the Father to lead you and show the way to theses people they are close by. Mal 4:1 ASV - For, behold, the day cometh, it burneth as a furnace; and all the proud, and all that work wickedness, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith Jehovah of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Jam 1:21 ASV - Wherefore putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
Hbr 10:26 ASV - For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more a sacrifice for sins, Please read this carefully, God does not wink at sin there is no little white lies ,sin will separate you from God, and for those that have the Holy Ghost do you realize Jesus is in you and he is watching you, I know this from personal experience,the lord spoke this to me in a day of rebellion and it broke my heart Hbr 6:4 ASV - For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
Hbr 6:5 ASV - and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come,
Hbr 6:6 ASV - and [then] fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. We all need the fear of GOD in us to have a Godly reverence for his word. the narrow gate which leads to salvation is filled with obstacles, and the farther you get to that precious gate those hindrances that come before you, they must be CAST DOWN !! will bring you lower and lower until you enter on your face before the lord . And his grace is our strength to over come, in our weakness he is made strong, 1Cr 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
1Cr 15:48 ASV - As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
1Cr 15:49 ASV - And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
We must hold fast to the word of God and obey his commandments, God called us to bring forth much fruit, And when he purges us,cuts back our branches, he is loving us, wanting us to grow in his grace. Gal 5:1 ASV - For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage. But with boldness let your yes be yes and your no be no. Hbr 10:22 ASV - let us draw near with a true heart in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water,
1Jo 3:19 ASV - Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:
1Jo 3:21 ASV - Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God;
1Jo 3:22 ASV - and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
1Jo 3:23 ASV - And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment.
1Jo 3:24 ASV - And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
God bless you all
