Virgins without fault

Saturday, February 21st, 2015

Revelation 14:4   These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.

5  And in their mouth was found no deceit, for they are without fault before the throne of God.

Man’s ego would attempt to apply the above passage to male’s only thus removing the role of women.  We must set aside such soulish thinking and consider that we all have both masculine and feminine aspects within us.  Paul spoke of the Sons in the following manner:

Galatians 3:26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Additionally, we all started out impure and only by the fiery Word are we made pure and Holy.  This purification removes any deceit that had been resident in us beforehand.  As we become pure, we are able to walk without fault and  Paul urges us to press on and walk accordingly in Philippians 2:

14 Do all things without complaining and disputing,

15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

16 holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.

We must see beyond the flesh and quit belittling those of the other sex.  Each of us has a specific piece to the puzzle and we are all needed in order for the picture to be complete.  We need to honor the ministry of others and know that they have something to add whether tangible or intangible.  Their calling may be to encourage others when they are in dire need of a kind word.  They may be called to comfort the little ones as they are maturing.  Whatever their calling, do not hinder or belittle them.  Do not use control and/or manipulation to move their focus away from their purpose in order to stroke your ego as though you are the only one with a need.  It is time to quit exalting yourself as the center of attention and focus others on Jesus Christ.  Let Him be seen in you rather than your ego being expressed in a self-serving manner.  No longer be defiled by your ego, put it to death.

Another sticking point in this passage is that of being a virgin and once again we must not apply the physical to the Spiritual.  Paul explains what it means to be a virgin in the second letter of Corinthians in chapter 11:

1 Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly—and indeed you do bear with me.

2 For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

Is your mind being corrupted with the complexities of craftiness of men?  Men bring forth unending formulas that must be followed in order to attain to some “out of reach” Christ-likeness.  They consistently bombard us with details, knowledge, information, and opinions of how to become like Christ yet there is a simplicity that Paul reveals.  The ego would like to place itself as the key to becoming a chaste virgin.  The mind will never attain to that spotless condition and the complexities it generates serve only to delay a revelation.  We must quit pursuing some complex formula in order to become a mature Son.  If we simply pursue FATHER’S presence in our life and listen for HIS instruction, we will walk according to HIS Spirit and receive the appropriate revelations.  Paul further explains in Ephesians chapter 4:

17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind,

18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart;

19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20 But you have not so learned Christ,

21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus:

22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

What great news!  We can put away former conduct and corruption and be renewed as chaste virgins thus we can qualify to be among those written of in Revelation 14:4-5.  We are no longer deceived by the serpent who is now become a great beast who walks the earth and is now deceiving nations.  We are not moved by the perversions and deceptions spewing forth out of the current world system.  Our mind is being transformed to the Mind of Christ and we now see the simplicity of Christ in our lives.  We can dwell IN HIM as we walk among men. 

We are no longer afraid of death but are now assured in our walk.  We have such anticipation for the new song coming forth in our spirits to express the Love and the gratitude for HIS plan, will, and purpose in our lives.  The dearth is no longer affecting us as we are drinking from the water of the Living Word.  Those who would distract us no longer have any power to do so.  Our focus is in the third Heaven and we now have the revelation and assurance of being a chaste virgin prepared to be one with Christ.  No fault or deception will be found among us and we have been redeemed among men!

The New Song

Friday, February 20th, 2015

Revelation 14:3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.

Back in Revelation 5:9, the four living creatures around the Throne were singing a new song.  Now the choir has expanded to include the elders and the 144,000.  You may recall that I wrote of this third song representing the song of Tabernacles, the final deliverance of the old nature.  There were two songs mentioned concerning Moses: one of deliverance from Egypt (Exodus 15) and at the end of his life before the children were to enter the Promised Land (Deuteronomy 32).  This third song is now being sung by a greater contingent in Heaven.

It is an interesting reality how a song can carry a message and is easily learned by those who hear it.  When you combine words with a melody, you are wired to remember it.  The masses are able to sing along with the artist at sporting events and other gatherings.  Have you ever noticed that a certain song when heard will “stick” with you all day long?  What do you think would happen when a new song from Heaven is sung in your presence?  It becomes a part of you as well.  It is burned into your consciousness.

“FATHER, we long to hear this new song, open our hearts and ears to hear!”

Revelation 5:8 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.  9  And they sang a new song, saying:

​​​“You are worthy to take the scroll,

​​And to open its seals;

​​For You were slain,

​​And have redeemed us to God by Your blood

​​Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

10 ​​And have made us kings and priests to our God;

​​And we shall reign on the earth.”

These 144,000 were redeemed from the “earth”.  At a personal level, the earth represents the soulish realm.  Those who operate in this realm eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and thus they judge other people according to their own perception of things.  The 144,000 have left this realm and have entered the Heavenly realm and eat from the tree of life with its healing leaves.  They are awaiting orders to begin the deliverance and harvest of mankind.  The objective of ruling and reigning is not one of self interest but instead of bring forth the Divine Intent of Love to all of mankind.  In this Our Heavenly Father is glorified.  These kings and priests are to minister service to mankind in a righteous manner unlike the worldly counterparts who have sought to enslave the masses.

Isaiah 42:9 ​​Behold, the former things have come to pass,

​​And new things I declare;

​​Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

10  ​​Sing to the LORD a new song,

​​And His praise from the ends of the earth,

​​You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,

​​You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!

11   ​​Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice,

​​The villages that Kedar (darkness: sea) inhabits.

​​Let the inhabitants of Sela (Jehovah’s rock: earth) sing,

​​Let them shout from the top of the mountains.

12   ​​Let them give glory to the LORD,

​​And declare His praise in the coastlands.

13   ​​The LORD shall go forth like a mighty man;

​​He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war.

​​He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud;

​​He shall prevail against His enemies.

Be assured that the inhabitants of the earth will soon learn this new song as The Lamb and His army go forth into all the land to reclaim, redeem, and return it to a state where all will proclaim the Kingdom has come.  The praise and joy this new song brings to those who surround the Throne will soon be sung by the inhabitants of the earth and sea.  This song is the song of reconciliation of all mankind and will contain the gratitude and praises for the beauty of the Plan which will soon unfold before the eyes of all of creation.  Prepare to sing!

The Strings of Praise

Thursday, February 19th, 2015

Revelation 14:2   And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps.

A harp is an instrument of praise.  King David played the harp as he went through his darkest times.  Praise to Our Heavenly Father encourages our soul.  The mind would have you believe that certain destruction is at hand but Our Heavenly Father is able to do above and beyond anything we ask and is able to deliver us out of any situation. 

In the above verse, Our Heavenly Father speaks and HIS Voice is described by “many waters” and loud thunder.  Psalm 29, David is giving praise to God in His Holiness and Majesty and describes HIS Voice:

3 ​​The voice of the LORD is over the waters;

​​The God of glory thunders;

​​The LORD is over many waters.

4 ​​The voice of the LORD is powerful;

​​The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

The 144,000 are in awe of FATHER’S plan and now that the maturing process is completed and they are prepared to carry out their individual callings on a collective basis, the gratitude is immense and praise pours out in Heaven as the harpists play their harps.  As the mysteries unfold before their very eyes and ears, the Wisdom is overpowering.  Only now is the plan fully appreciated by those who submitted to HIS call for HIS Love drew them into full submission. Further, they had no need for a full explanation of the plan for they fully trusted IN HIM to bring forth a blessed end to the suffering of mankind.

I have played guitar for over 50 years.  Your ears become sensitive to perfect pitch and you can easily detect when a guitar is out of tune.  The unique vibration of each string correlates to the other strings in perfect harmony.  Each of the six strings is unique and is not exactly like the other strings.  Each has its own function and is in unity with the others.  When properly tuned with each other, they create a beautiful chord.  When one string is slightly out of tune, there is discord.  When a group of musicians are playing together, the out of tune string is easily detected.  Each string vibrates to create sound and those vibrations are complementary to the vibrations of the other strings.  We too must come in tune with FATHER so that we become a beautiful song of praise.  Only after we come in unity and in perfection do we minister peace and tranquility.  Consider the magnificence of the new song in Heaven as the 144,000 are in total unity with The Lamb and FATHER.

Our Heavenly Father’s Voice is discernable to every tongue on earth and HIS Voice is described as “many waters” here as it is in Ezekiel’s vision:

Ezekiel 43:2   And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory.

“Many waters” are the voices of unity of the Sons who speak only what they hear from Our Heavenly Father.  In Heaven, all are in unity and one accord thus the many voices bespeak of the many tongues found throughout creation who have come together.  The Sons are standing on Mt. Zion, the highest place of authority with The Lamb.  The Sons have now been glorified with Him.  Paul states in Romans 8:

16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

Thunder denotes power and the power has now been given to the Sons who have become fully mature and understand its proper use.  So we now have a scene of authority (standing on Mt. Zion) and power (voice of loud thunder) being attributed to the mature Sons.  We will soon see the overcoming of strongholds of both the earth-dwellers and the tumultuous sea of humanity.  Before that takes place, the Sons are standing in awe of the majesty of FATHER and HIS beauty of Holiness.  The harps are in tune and have become a seamless expression of praise.  Heaven rejoices!

The Firstfruits to FATHER

Wednesday, February 18th, 2015

Revelation 14:1  Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads.

In contrast to those who have accepted the “mind of religion” John is presented with those who have put on the Mind of Christ- the 144,000 saints.  Instead of the mark of the beast on their forehead, they have FATHER’S Name written on them and they walk in HIS Wisdom.  Paul states in 1 Corinthians chapter 2:

6 However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,

As mentioned before, mysteries are revealed only to the initiated and are closely guarded by FATHER and HIS Spirit so as not to be abused or misused by those who walk according to the flesh.  We now see the Lamb standing with the mature Sons who represent the firstfruits of creation.  They are now fully mature and have established themselves through trials and testings.  They are not tossed to and fro by men’s doctrines but walk in peace even as the sea of humanity is in turmoil.  They are not moved by the circumstances around them and have fully submitted to FATHER’S Plan, Will, and Purpose.  They understand their riches are in Heaven and seek not the temporal.  They have put on the Mind of Christ and taken on FATHER’S Identity.  Paul continues in 1 Corinthians 2:

9 But as it is written:

​​​“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,

​​Nor have entered into the heart of man

​​The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

​10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

The Sons truly Love Our Heavenly Father without exception.  They have no interest in the emptiness of man’s religion and are not moved by the showmanship and charisma displayed by the religious leaders.  They have put away the childish things and have pursued the deeper things of FATHER.  As Paul wrote in Romans 13:

12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

13 Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.

14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

The Sons HAVE put on the Lord Jesus Christ and are now with Him on Mount Zion.  The Law of Love is now on their foreheads and their right hands display acts of Love thus this Love is both in word and deed.  They are now fully motivated by the revelation of Love to minister unto all on behalf of Our Heavenly Father.  Acts and words motivated by any other intent do not qualify as part of this walk.  Jesus made it abundantly clear in Matthew chapter 7:

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

The 144,000 with Christ have overcome the mark of the beast.  They have overcome the sea of humanity and the earth-bound religions.  They have given up the “mark” of the beast in both their thinking and their actions.  They no longer support man’s thinking but have put on the Mind of Christ in their words and deeds.  They do Love all who remain in those lower orders but are not sucked into the quagmire with them but are able to rise above the turmoil others live in.  The presence of the Sons will bring peace to the surrounding environment and those who are in their midst will detect a change when they arrive on the scene.  The Sons know that the temporal is subject to change as the Divine Intent of FATHER prevails in each and every situation.  The created must submit to the CREATOR.

The 144,000 are now fully matured and ready for their mission.  The proclamations from Heaven are now at hand and the bowls of judgment are ready to be poured out on all flesh.  Now is the time!

The Infamous Mark & Number

Tuesday, February 17th, 2015

Revelation 13:16   He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

17   and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18   Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

If there has been any passage to invoke fear among the masses, the above Scripture is near the top of the list- the mark of the beast.  Many have drawn conclusions that a one world government would be set up and people would receive a tattoo with a unique barcode.  But wait, new technology has now produced a computer chip injected under the skin that would be better!  As new tracking technology improves, the story gets modified.  I guess those prophets heralding the barcode method need to be dealt with appropriately.

“Come up hither” was the word to John and thus he was seeing in the Spiritual realm throughout this Fifth Gospel.  This second beast represents those who walk in the soul realm and place their focus and submission to a religious order and follow after man’s derived authority rather than FATHER’S full and complete authority.  The religious authority is based on man’s submission to outward practices that have been implemented to project some superior GOD-given ordination.  Men oversee these organizations and agree to ordain other men as ministers.  Doctrines have been created and customs to be followed in strict adherence to church law.  Do you think FATHER is moved by a robe or a collar?  Do you think a Bible thumping fireball preacher will demand HIS attention?  Will bread and grape juice in the finest china satisfy HIS requirements for communion?  In Matthew 23, Jesus spoke of the outward condition of the church during His ministry:

25   “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence.

26   Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

27   “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.

28   Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

All of the outward religious traditions, practices, processes, and schedules are designed to bring the masses into submission.  All who submit to those religions have mentally accepted the “mark” on their forehead and those who support those religions with their actions and resources have the “mark” on the hand.

Seven Is the number of Spiritual perfection and completion.  Six is the number of man.  There is a vast chasm between those two numbers and much could be said in comparing the two numbers.  Man was to work six days and rest on the seventh day.  This seventh day represents “being” not “doing”.  The number 666 represents all three facets of man: spirit, soul, and body.  All three facets come up short to full and complete Spiritual perfection and maturity.  You could say the number of the Sons would be 777 in comparison.  Lamech, Noah’s father, lived to be 777 years and his name means “powerful”.

The number of the beast represents the nature of the beast.  The beast would have you work for your salvation rather than it being a free gift from Above:

Romans 5:18   Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

19   For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

We are to put on the mind of Christ, not the mind and thinking of man.  The Living Word is given unto us to ponder and trust in, not the traditions of men.  We are to use our hands for the purpose and calling given to each of us individually.  The hand represents action and our energy should be directed to HIS Divine Intent in our lives, not in submission to some pastor’s vision for a larger church building so he only has to preach one time on Sunday morning, leaving the building empty and unoccupied for the remainder of the day.  It is estimated that there are about 4,200 religions on the earth today.  Are there 4,199 wrong ones?  We are to be Spiritual, not religious.  Religions cause division among people whereas FATHER is in the unity business.  The beast has divided men by creating religion to move the focus away from the internal.

The mark and number have been active for centuries and John was given the mystery to be revealed for our benefit.  Let us each mature beyond the 666 number and as we die to the flesh, all three aspects of our being will align with HIS Divine Intent for our lives.  Let us not fear man’s systems which are designed to enslave us.  As Jesus said in John chapter 8:

31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.

32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Death to Carnality

Monday, February 16th, 2015

Revelation 13:15   He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

When the above passage is read from a perspective motivated by fear, you think the worst.  The carnal man is afraid to die and will do anything to prevent it.  In the book of Romans, Paul wrote in chapter 8:

13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

It is a good thing to die to the flesh.  Man does not understand that particular Truth because it is counterintuitive to his carnal nature.  We must die to live?  “It does not compute!”  The mind is not creative and is a harsh taskmaster when in control but is a servant when used properly.  It is binary in nature and understands “up and down”, “black and white”, “in and out”.  It does not understand Spiritual things.  Your spirit comprehends the things of GOD and thus if you are blinded, you will try to understand spiritual Truths with the mind and it won’t produce life.  This is why we must quiet our mind in order to hear in the Spirit.  With this understanding, let’s read what Paul said earlier in the chapter:

5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

As we are moved out of men’s organizations where the “created” is worshipped, we begin the death process.  We begin to see the futility in those structures designed to suck the life and resources from those who support it.  Complex and intricate customs and traditions do not move FATHER or HIS Spirit.  In Matthew 23, Jesus spoke to those in charge of the “church”:

13 “But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.

14  Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.”

FATHER will not empower those who misuse their position for personal gain of any type.  HE is looking for those who desire to serve mankind in Love.  They love not their own life but place it in full subjection to HIS Will.  My prayer is that I see people just as FATHER sees them.  Once I am fully matured as a Son, HIS Love will emanate through me just as it did from Jesus and HIS power to heal and restore will go forth and glorify HIM, not man.  When the fullness of this time comes forth, men will no longer look to technology to solve their problems, they will no longer look to some man-made government system to provide for their needs, instead they will look up toward Heaven and seek THE ONE Who opens the windows of Heaven to supply all our need according to the riches in Christ.

Jesus paved the way to life by overcoming death.  He opened the door for us to enter through and be fully reconciled to FATHER.  No beast or man’s system can keep us from HIS Love and Presence.  We do not have to travel to a local church building in order to have a relationship with FATHER.  There is nothing wrong with gathering together for fellowship and to hear testimonies of HIS goodness and mercy.  Additionally, there is nothing wrong with serving the community.  We simply must not become servants to a structure or man-made organizations.  Structure should serve man, not the opposite.  A house is supposed to serve as a shelter and resting place but when you overindulge and buy beyond your means, the house places you in servitude by the excessive loan and expensive maintenance.  You must now work to support structure and you have little time to spend with HIM.  After the excitement wears off, you ask yourself: What was I thinking when I bought this?  The carnal man uses lust to keep us in subjection.  Structure becomes more complex and demands more attention away from your personal relationship with FATHER.

Let us expose the carnal things that would hinder our full and complete maturity as Sons.  Let us die to those things which become weights to us and let us shed them as we ascend to the fullness of our individual callings.  The beast will have no place in us and we will not take its mark!

Misuse of Power

Sunday, February 15th, 2015

Revelation 13:13   He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.

14   And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.

15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

At a personal level, the beast in the earth is the soul of the carnal man, governed by human nature and not the Spirit of FATHER.  Do not think FATHER will fail to minister grace and mercy because the instrument HE uses is carnal.  If HE waited until men were spotless in order to use them, we would be still waiting.  Many evangelists in the last four decades saw many miracles in their meetings while they were privately walking after their lusts.  Their fleshly desires would move them to sin even after they saw great miracles of healing and restoration.  They would acquire many houses and exotic cars as their bank accounts grew and before long they were exposed in their sin.  Putting your trust in man rather than FATHER will create disappointment and frustration.  We must set our focus on the internal, not the external.

The purpose of the signs in the above passage is to convince people to follow the false prophet.  Beware of those who constantly use signs as confirmation that they are “anointed”.  When you rely on signs as your primary source of confirmation you will surely fall into the ditch.  I am not against signs per se, but only FATHER should tell you when they are relevant.  With seven billion people on earth, there are innumerable signs everywhere and at all times of the day.  Signs can cause you to take your focus away from hearing FATHER’S Voice, beware!

Earth dwellers are carnal Christians.  Their priorities are earth-based and they are fully content to place all of their priorities and interests in the temporal realm.  They become subject to structure and are content to sit in the pew each Sunday morning and have the pastor convey any revelation he received in the last week.  They enjoy being entertained by the music service attempting to be fully spiritual as the singers and musicians rock the sanctuary with loud, repetitive songs.  How many times must we sing the same chorus before the Spirit will move?  The traditions of men are alive and well in sanctuaries throughout the western world.

The beast is able to deceive those who dwell on the earth.  Jesus was asked about the end of the age and He said in Mark, chapter 13:

21   “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it.

22   For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 23 But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.

If there is anything we must be careful about in these times it is being deceived by men.  Jesus made it quite clear that virtually everyone would be subject to great deception with one exception- the elect.  Consider the brevity of that statement.  The current system we live in is built around deception and there is great pressure to accept it as a firm reality, not subject to change, revision, or removal.  Advancements in technology in the last 100 years would leave the average person to believe that it will continue as is. 

It would appear that Love has no place in the forward movement of the current system.  Mankind has become complacent and is being deceived by moving the focus away from the Spiritual and gazing on the structure-based systems in place.  The complexities of the current systems are moving toward mass failure and no man can stop its demise.  The simple challenge of building a house with a deck of cards best describes the current path of man.  The carnal nature of man always moves toward destruction resulting in death.  Fortunately the elect have been reserved by the Love of FATHER to provide the way out.

Those who dwell on the earth make an image of the beast.  The beast represents an organization created by man to take the place of a direct relationship with FATHER.  Men worship “the created”, not THE CREATOR.  My wife and I have been able to travel abroad and the center of many cities, towns, and villages is the church building.  Ornate facades and gold-leafed altars project the perception of holiness and demand your reverence.  Men and women have poured hard earned resources as they have been deceived into supporting the beast’s image.  FATHER cannot be found in man’s structure and HE is not obligated to show up on Sunday morning to tingle your spine.  Instead, look for HIM in the silence of your prayer closet where there are no distractions.  Big pipe organs will not summon HIM to come forth, a grateful, contrite heart will.

FATHER will occupy your temple by HIS Spirit… how simple!  No longer give into the deception of the beast and support an external edifice that would have you believe HE is residing there.  Men will build large buildings to support their large egos.  Jesus never built a physical building but went out to where the people lived and ministered life to them.  We are to minister Love to those we encounter on a daily basis.  Our ministry is not confined to four walls, it is the entire earth.  Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done ON EARTH as it is in Heaven.  Amen!

Honoring My Brother

Servias Ministries will miss our Beloved Brother and Board Member, Dr. Vincent J. Speckhart.

More so, I will miss Vince on a personal level.  He spent his life in service to others and there are countless recipients of His healing ministry.  I am convinced his love for others is why FATHER empowered him as a “healer” in the medical field rather than a “treater” of symptoms.  I personally received must insight from Vince over the last 15 years.  We spoke often and it was a privilege to be his friend.  His family will miss him greatly but we know he is with FATHER.  We are all better for knowing him!

A Return to Love

Saturday, February 14th, 2015

Today, Valentine’s Day, celebrates Love in many parts of the world.  However, we should be celebrating the Love of Our Heavenly Father everyday for it is HIS Love that brought all of us onto this earth for the richness of experience and to fulfill our individual unique callings.  I have written about the fact that HE knew us before we were formed in the womb and that HIS Divine Intent of Love is the motivation for us to be here now at this point in history.

Mankind is quickly coming to a place where there will be a major change of consciousness.  With wars and rumors of war being broadcasted on a daily basis, we all can attest to Jesus’ statements about the end of the age:

Matthew 24:6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

His Words are surely speaking of these times now.  The overall problem with mankind is the absence of Love in their hearts for others.  Men want to exploit because they believe in scarcity while at the same time the universe is in an ever-expanding mode.  There is no true scarcity, it is only in the minds and hearts of men who are blinded from the Truth.

As those who follow this blog site know, I have been writing on the last book of the Bible: The Revelation of Jesus Christ.  The reality of Love is found locked away in the mysteries and Spiritual depictions in this Fifth Gospel of Good News.  Countless church prophets, evangelists, pastors, apostles, and teachers have scared the flock with dire predictions of burning in hell for eternity with global cataclysms happening all around us as the end comes.  Only a small minority of the world’s population escape the judgment based on their teaching.  I say: nonsense!  Why?  Love will prevail just as it did 2,000 years ago at the physical cross.

The last book of the Bible was placed there for a reason, and it was not to literally scare the “hell” out of men.  Instead, it describes our fulfillment of HIS Divine Plan and the removal of all that is false and lawless as the revelation of Love is fulfilled in HIS Sons.  In the past each of us has taken on temporary identities defined by the structure around us.  We lived our lives based on lies and judgment with false perceptions of Truth.  Jesus came as the Standard of Truth, empowered by Our Heavenly Father and it turned the course of history.   The Sons are now being raised up to do the very same thing at this point in history as it has been laid out and revealed in this Fifth Gospel, hidden in front of everyone.  How appropriate!

This last book is not subject to man’s interpretation and is not primarily about the political events of the world.  This does not mean that those events are independent of this final book but instead they will correlate with manifestations paralleling and accompanying the Spiritual events contained therein.  Men want to focus on the outward whereas the Sons are focusing on the inward where the true action is.  As Jesus said:

Luke 17:20 Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

21 nor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.”

And as Paul said in 1 Corinthians 6:19:

“Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?

Mankind is quickly moving toward “critical mass” in its destiny with Love.  All that is false must be exposed before mankind can be fully restored to Our Heavenly Father.  Man’s reliance on structure and technology will give way to the revelation of Love.  As we move closer to this final confrontation with lies and deception, there will surely be pain experienced among many.  Those who put their trust in “things” will throw a fit just as a child whose toy was taken away.  Those who trusted in men, systems, technology, money, and other temporal things will have fear grip their hearts until they are able to see the Love of the FATHER and HIS Divine Plan.  Afterward, their tears will be wiped away.

We must approach this destiny with Love rather than fear. As we do, any pain we suffer will not affect us in the same manner for we know FATHER’S Love is sufficient to see us through whatever change takes place.  How it unfolds is critical and inevitable for the Kingdom of GOD to come forth on earth.  No longer will men be disconnected from FATHER and HIS Love.  The worship of structure will cease and men will no longer be oppressed by structure, systems, or other men.  Enslavement will disappear but there may be a final retaliation of survival by those who want to maintain the current status quo.  But be assured, the collapse of the old will occur no matter what attempts to retain it are made.  In the end, all men will be blessed by HIS Love.

On a Mission

For the next several days, I will be out on a mission and have limited access to posting blogs.  I encourage you to spend quality time with FATHER.  HE is available 24/7.  I expect to post new blogs beginning on the day we celebrate Love.
