THE AWAKENING...YOU'VE BEEN WRONG ALL ALONG!!Jesus came by Water and Bloodnot by Water onlybut by Water and Bloodin other words:Jesus came by Baptism and Deathnot by Baptism onlybut by Baptism and DeathNot everyone claiming the Blood of Christwill stand before him at his comingTherefore, not everyoneclaiming the Blood of Christwill be able to SEE and UNDERSTANDthe "WATER" aspect of SALVATIONNot even if GOD himself,PAINTED THEM A PICTURE!!But wait- He did indeed paint everyone a picture-SEE my slide show or pics on my profile pagehttp://whom-seek-ye.ning.com/profile/WilliamWilburhttp://william-wilbur.blogspot.com/Look at the animal sacrifice picture in my slide showif you cover up the left side of the picture;where the sins are being put on the sacrificeand only performed the right side;the killing of the sacrificeit was unacceptable to God;and certainly did not cover any of the sins!!God was very specificin how these sacrifices were to be donebecause they forshadowed his Sons' deathNow, Look at the Baptism picturealong side of Jesus on the crossif we cover up the Baptism picture;and the "passing on" of the sinsand only performed the right side;the killing of the sacrificeit also would be unacceptable to Godand certainly did not cover any of the sins!!THEREFORE;if your FAITH covers up the Baptism picture;and you are just believing in the crossand the shed blood of JesusIT IS UNACCEPTABLETO COVER ANY OF YOUR SINS!!Now follow alongIf you have not put your sins on Jesuswith the Correct Faith of when, where, and howhe took ALL of your sins for ALL timeand then proceeded to the crossto pay for ALL of your sins for ALL timewith his one offeringWhere are your sins?SURPRISE!!YOU ARE STILL CARRYING THEM!!Satan has deceived almost the entire worldinto just believing in the Blood!!Blindly ...we believe that our sins are goneby just believing in the deathof Jesus at the crossAnd believe me Satan is going to get great pleasureas he watches millions of Christians fall in "shock"at the coming of JesusJohn said to Jesus:You come to me to be Baptised;I need to be Baptised by you!!Jesus replies:Suffer it to be so now,It is necessary that we fufil all righteousnessJesus knew he couldn't proceed to the crosswithout the sins of the world upon himIf he did, the sacrifice would be meaninglessOnly a Levite Priest;in the line of Aaron, could pass the sins onto Jesus(John was through both his father and mother)It's no wonder Jesus said of John:Of all men born of womenthere is none greater than John the BaptistJohn was a major and significant part in our salvation!!Baptism-Jesus takes the sins of the world upon himselfSacrifice-Jesus proceeds to the cross and pays the judgmentIt is our faith... and believing with all our heartsthat he took ALL sins, for ALL time, ...there...that puts our sins on the sacrificeCoupled with the fact...That he then proceeded to the crossand shed his blood as payment(judgment)The two go hand in hand-you can not disregard one of theseand have believed in the correct and proper manner!!The BLOOD of the Sacrifice washes awayONLY the SINS that were put on the Sacrifice FIRST!!!God himself designed the Tabernaclewith the different layers of colorsto guide us to the final layerbefore returning to the Father through Christ!!It is surely not a freak accident...the Blue Purple Scarlet matches the Water Spirit Blood!!After very much praying,the Lord enlightened me,that the majority of his "CALLED"were living in the SCARLET layer of his TabernacleI was shown this was not the Correct Faith,and that the "FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT"would be the "CHOSEN" from this layer;whom would proceed to the final layer ofBlue, Purple, Scarlet...Water, Spirit BloodThey alone would have the Correct Faithwhich would remove the engraved sinsand allow them to stand at his comingThe many Christians who go to churchstill carrying their sins because of improper faithare the ones that live in the red Scarlet layerThey are the "CALLED"(many are "called" but few are "chosen")And they will still be saved;AFTER... they take "their part" in the Lake of Firewhich will remove all the sinful carnal naturethat they never put on Christ by having theCorrect Faith in theBlue Purple Scarlet ... Water Spirit BloodUntil Christ died we had to ask for forgivenessOnce he died and paid the pricefor ALL sin for ALL timewe no longer have to ask for forgiveness!!It is Satan who wants youto keep asking for forgivenessbecause if you continue to ask for forgiveness;you are denying the Correct Faiththat he already took ALL sins for ALL timeand paid the price (judgment)for ALL sins for ALL timeThis incorrect faith allows Satan to arguethat you do not have the Correct Faiththat you have not been reborn of the "Water"therefore you are still carrying our sinsand therefore you indeed belong to him!!!Satan wants you to keep believingthat you have to pray daily for sins;as a never-ending requiredment to be savedAnd if you think for a minute,that you could possibly pray enoughto cover all your sins-you are badly mistakenWhat if you died 15 minutes ago??Would you have had even one sin...you forgot??Do you think Jesus can or will let that one sin slidewhen he had given you the perfect Salvationof the Water Spirit Blood?Do you think that a person who went to churchall their life and was totally devoted to the Lordshould burn in hell forever with the rest of the wickedbecause he forgot to pray for just one sin?Remember sin can not enter heavenso somehow, someway that sin has to be removedthus my writing will also cover the truthabout the Lake of Fire lie and its' real purposeIn ConclusionJesus told us:You must be born of the Water and the Spirittherefore I am boldly proclaiming and teachingthe washing of rebirth and the renewal by the Set-apart SpiritBeing reborn of the WATER is the very split secomdthat you by Correct Faith in the Water Spirit Blood-believe with all your heart soul and mind that Jesusdid indeed take all of YOUR sins at his BaptismYou are reborn at that very split secondas you now have the Correct Faith that puts your sinsproperly on the Sacrifice by the Correct Faith in the Threethat testify in the earth:The Blue Purple Scarlet ... Water Spirit BloodThe Blood of the Sacrificewashes away....ONLY....those sins that are put on the Sacrifice FIRSTThe Gospel of Water Spirit Bloodanswers all the questions and teaches you:Where it was doneWhen it was doneHow it was doneWhat way it had to be doneWhy it was done as forshadowedWho had part in itHeb 10:12,14But this man, after he had offeredONE sacrifice for sins FOREVER,sat down on the right hand of GodFor by ONE offeringhe has perfectedFOR EVERthem that are sanctified1 John 5:6This is hethat came by water and bloodeven Jesus Christnot by water only,but by water and bloodAnd it is the Spiritthat beareth witness,because the Spirit is truth1 Peter 3:21The like figure whereuntoeven baptism doth now also save us(not the putting away of the filth of the fleshbut the answer of a good conscience toward God)by the resurrection of Jesus ChristWhat about "Daily Sins"?Yes, as we continue through lifewe will still make errors and sinuntil all things are restoredWhen this happens:The Set-apart Spirit will convict us and we will know;that act/thought was wrong (guilty feeling)We acknowledge it(accepting in our mind, it was sin)We repent for falling back into the fleshy nature(are sorry and confess it was sin)This is not asking for forgiveness!!We get back on our feet and back into our Spirital Natureby re-focusing on the perfect salvation of Water Spirit BloodWhen Jesus washed Peters feetit was to show him that even though he was "clean"he would continue to have daily sinsJesus was showing him that though his feet (so to speak)would continue to get dirty until all was restoredHe (Jesus) had also taken care of those sins as wellwith his one offering for ALL sins forevermoreMy friends;Satan can not stop Godfrom speaking through someonetherefore his only alternativeis to go to the "receiving end" of the messageand attempt to draw out their "defensive" carnal natureto stop them from receiving itMy advice is look at the Tabernacle againSee the colors that God himself designedThe entry gate of the Sanctuarywas also constructed with these colorssignifying that one must have the Correct Faith in Jesusto even enter the Sanctuary and attempt to go back toGod the Father through ChristAnd believe me, it is no accident whatsoeverthat the Blue, Purple, Scarlet colorswere all over the Tabernacleas well as on the entry to the Holy Place,to the Most Holy Place, and even on the veilbetween the Holy and the Most Holy PlaceReflect on the sacrifices that forshadowedwhat Jesus would come and doReflect on why Jesus saidthere was no man born of woman greater than JohnReflect on the fact, you could never everpossibly pray enough to cover all your sinsby the daily forgiveness prayerAnd then reflect on how beautiful and perfectthis true Salvation which the Lord providedcovers all your sinseven if you died 15 minutes agohaving not got to ask forgivenessfor something that slipped your mind!!!You can read this awesome truth in my blog orI can send a color-worded copy to a good emailThe “passing on” of sins forshadowed the Baptism of JesusLev16:21And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the goat,and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israeland all their transgressions in all their sins,putting them upon the head of the goat,and shall send him away by the handof a fit man into the wildernessJohn the Baptist is the one who passed the sins of the world onto Jesusand also the fit man who sent him into the wilderness of the worldcarrying those sins until his death on the crossWhat I am proclaiming is not about our Baptism,but the Baptism of Jesus and the correct faithof the three that testify in the earthThe Blue Purple Scarlet … Water Spirit BloodI am proclaiming the only correct faith,that will allow us to stand before him at his comingas it removes all the “engraved” sins from the tables of our heartsGod himself, designedthe Tabernacle/Sanctuary colors of Blue Purple Scarletand it was no accident that theBlue Purple Scarlet matches the Water Spirit BloodSee the slide show or pictures at the linksNotice how the final layerbefore returning to the Father through Christis the Blue Purple Scarlet coveringMy friends, Satan is a master at deceptionHe has succeeded intaking the Sacred Names of the Father and Sonout of the Bible over 6800 timesand replaced them with Lord or God(read my writing the Sacred Names)He has succeeded changingthe 7th day Sabbath to Sun…day the 1st day of the week(read my writing Seal of God or Mark of the Beast)And now, he has almost succeededin deceiving the entire worldinto believing in half of the true gospel,because they are only believing inand teaching the blood at the crossSo in essence he has accomplished getting almost the entire world toForget God’s NameForget God’s DayForget where and how God took your sinsSatan knows, that if you do not have the correct faithin the Water aspect of Salvation;You are not “reborn” of the Waterand your sins have never,properly by correct faith been put on JesusSatan’s argument is,that because of your incorrect faith in the true gospelyour sins are not covered by the blood of Jesusand therefore you belong to him!!As you proceed through this amazing truthyou may question the validity of it,because of so many that have been deceivedand thus appear to be lostThe Good News isOur God is an awesome God!!and he will save his entire creation!!!Let us begin our study, with a brief look at the Passover"The Passover"This was a special day;to remember and thank God for the Exodus from EgyptGod told Abraham that if he and his descendantswould enter into his covenant and be circumcised;he would become their God and they would become his peopleCircumcision was the "cutting off" of the foreskinsignifying the "cutting off" of sin and becoming God's peopleOnly those who were circumcised became God's peopleand were allowed to participate in the Passover celebrationThe Passover lamb signified Christthat is why not one bone was to be broken!!In the New Testament, we must be "Spiritually Circumcised"to become God’s people and participate in Jesus the PassoverRom 2:29Circumcision is that of the heartSpiritual Circumcisionis spiritually "cutting off" sin thus becoming God's peopleWe do so by faith,and believing in the Water, the Spirit, and the BloodWe "cut off" sin, by believing in faith,that Jesus took all sins upon himself at his baptism;and then proceeded to the crosswhere he would pay the price (judgment)for them in our placeHow then, do we Spiritually become God’s people?By believing in the Water Spirit Blood truth!!Just as the circumcision of the fleshrepresented the "cutting off" of sin and becoming God’s people;The proper faith of believingin Jesus "cutting off" all sin at the Jordan Riveralso restores us to being God's children again!!WE CAN PARTICIPATE IN CHRIST AND HIS KINGDOM!!Remember,those who were not circumcised in the fleshwere "cut off" from his peopleLikewise, those who are notSpiritually Circumcisedby the proper faith of theWater Spirit Bloodwill also be "cut off" from his people!!And so,In a world of so many “so called” Christianswho all believe in the life, death, and resurrection of JesusWhat is it, that separates them from the“few there be that find it”Jesus spoke about?Jesus said in Matt 7:14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way,which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find itAnd what really happens to so many of the peoplewho appeared to be the good christian people of the world?What you are about to read will change your life foreverAnd yes,Satan is very concerned about you knowing or teachingthis amazing truth which breaks his binds forevermore!!Still, Satan can not stop God from speaking through someoneTherefore, his only alternative,is to go to the receiving end of the messageand attempt to bring outthe carnal defensive natureof the person receiving the messageHe will use anything, or anyoneto keep you from receiving this truthincluding your friends, family, loved ones,and even those in your churchMay The Holy Spirit of God guide you as you read:The almost hidden:TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUSTHE WATER THE SPIRIT THE BLOODJohn 3:5Jesus answered, Verily, Verily, I say unto thee,Except a man be born of Water and of the Spirit,he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God1John 5:8And there are three that bear witness in earth,the Spirit, the Water, and the Blood: and these three agree in oneIn the Old Testament the Day of Atonementrevealed the future Salvation through Jesus ChristOnce a year, the High Priest (Aaron) would lay his hands on the headof a living goat called the "scapegoat"This act, was to pass all the sins of Israelfor an entire year, onto this sacrificeand only a levite priest in the lineage of Aaron could perform this ritualLev16:21And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the goat,and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israeland all their transgressions in all their sins,putting them upon the head of the goat,And shall send him away by the handof a fit man into the wildernessKey point:The sins were transferred or “passed on” to the sacrificeby the high priestby his hands on the headand before the death of the animalThe sacrifice (death) of this scapegoat would have been meaninglessif the sins were not passed onto it first as God requiredIn the same respect,the sacrifice (death) of Jesus on the crosswould have been meaninglessif all the sins of the worldwere not properly passed onto him first as God requiredThis “Passing On” of sinsforshadowed the Baptism of JesusJohn, the Baptist,through his father Zacharias, and his mother Elisabeth,was a descendant of Aaron the High PriestJohn who was the last earthly priest to represent all mankindmet with Jesus, the heavenly priest at the Jordan RiverMatt 3:13-15Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John,to be Baptized of himbut John forbade him,saying, I have need to be baptized of theeand comest thou to me?And Jesus answering said unto him,Suffer it to be so now:for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousnessThen he suffered himfor thus means;Baptism by the laying on of handsis the most appropriate, just, and fitting mannerto "pass on" the sins of the worldAs in the Old Testament’s "shadow of things to come"John the High Priest passed all the sins of the worldonto Jesus (the sacrifice) at this water baptismYes, the animal sacrifices of the Old Testamentforshadowed what Jesus would come and doJesus is the sacrificial Lamb of Godwho would take all the sins of the worldand then proceeded to the crossto pay for them with his bloodIt makes perfect sense for Jesus to tell Johnthat it was necessary for him to baptize himbecause he knew he couldn’t proceed to the cross without the sinsIf the Priest in the old testamentdidn’t put the sins on the head of the sacrifice first;the sacrifice was meaningless and unacceptable to GodLikewise, if John didn’t put the sins on the head of Jesus first;the sacrifice would also be meaningless and unacceptable to GodMatt 3:16And Jesus, when he was baptized,went up straightway out of the waterAnd it also makes perfect sense that Jesuscame straightway out of the wateras he was baptized by the hands on the headstraight down and straightway outJohn the Baptist was a significant part of our Salvation!!What did Jesus himself say about John?Matt 11:11Verily I say unto you,Among them that are born of womenthere hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist(Greater than Isaiah, Ezekiel, and even Moses?)Matt 3:16,17And Jesus, when he was baptized,went up straightway out of the water:and, lo, the heavens were opened unto himand he saw the Spirit of Goddescending like a dove and lighting upon him:And lo a voice from heaven, saying,This is my beloved Son,in whom I am well pleasedAfter the baptism,the very next day,John saw Jesus againand witnessed to all that were presentJohn 1:29Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the worldJohn knew,Jesus was now carryingall the sins of the world and witnessed it aloud!!It isn’t our baptism,but the baptism of Jesus, that was essential to our salvationFor this is where Jesus would "cut-off" all sin in the world forevermore!!The sacrificial requirement of passing all sins onto Jesushad been correctly accomplished(the WATER)The Spirit of God had descendedin the form of a dove(the SPIRIT)Jesus would now proceed on to the cross,where he would accept the judgmentfor all sin in our place(the BLOOD)God sent his Son to save us from all sins. (past, present, and future)Jesus came to save us from all sins. (past, present, and future)When Jesus cried out: IT IS FINISHED!!Was it not finished?Did he not save all of us who by faithaccept his water, spirit, and blood sacrifice?Was it not completely sufficient?Heb 10:12,14But this man,after he had offeredONE sacrificefor sins FOREVERsat down on the right hand of God:For by ONE offeringhe has perfectedFOR EVERthem that are sanctifiedAll we have to do is understandhow this great salvation was accomplishedand by faith accept it as the truth and believeRemember, the sacrifice (death) of Jesuswould be meaninglessif he didn't take all the sins with himSatan has slyly hidden the water aspect of Salvationso that many who profess to believe in Jesuswe will still have sin in our hearts upon Christ's returnFor if we fail to believe by faithin the water aspect of Salvationand that Jesus took all the sins of the worldupon himself at his baptism;We will be found still having our sins in our heartsand we will not be able to stand in his presencenor be fit to enter the Kingdom of GodSatan doesn't care if you teach the Bloodas long as you don't believewhen and how Jesus took your sinsAnd Satan will have great pleasurewatching the multitude of Christianswho will fall in great shockbecause they were believing incorrectlyin just the Blood of Christand therefore still carrying their sinsWe must believe by faiththat Jesus cleansed our hearts of all sin!!We are no longer separated from God the Father,but are now restored children of God without sinJesus took all sin past, present, and future to the crossIf a person doesn't believe this by faithand only believes in the blood on the crossthe sacrifice of Jesus would be meaninglessfor that personas that person's sinswere not properly put on Jesusby the correct faith in the "High Priests" baptismThus, that person’s faithwould fail to represent all the necessary aspects of true salvationWater Spirit BloodThe Blood of the Sacrificewashes awayONLYThose sinsthat were correctlyput on the SacrificeFIRSTThe momentwe see, understand, and believe this beautiful truth;we become God's people!!we no longer have any sin in our heartsas they are immediately transferred to our sacrifice JesusThe separation between us and God the Fatherhas been eliminated forevermore!!If we don't believeJesus took all sins to the cross and just believe in the blood;We are essentially eating the Passoverwithout being spiritually circumcisedWe are attempting to be covered by the blood of Christwithout first becoming God's peopleLet's take a look at the book of JoshuaJoshua led God's people to the Jordanen-route to the "promised land"When the Priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant,stepped into the Jordan river (known as the river of death)The water was "cut off" and parted leaving dry landso they could cross over into the "promised land"ForshadowingJesus was to be baptized in the future by Johnat this same Jordan Riverand would "cut off" all sin foreverSo we could also enter the "promised land"by the Water, the Spirit, and the Blood sacrifice of JesusAs we continue on,we will be taking a closer look at theSanctuary and the Tabernacleof which God himself was the designer!!My friend, You must Believe me when I tell you this,It was no accident whatsoeverthat God matched the Tabernacle’sBlue, Purple, and Scarlet threadwith the Water, Spirit, and Blood truth!!The entry gate of the Sanctuarywas also constructed with these colorssignifying that one must have the correct faith in Jesusto even enter the Sanctuaryand attempt to go back to God the Father through ChristAnd it is no accidentthat the Blue, Purple, and Scarlet colorswere all over the Tabernacleas well as on the entryto the Holy Place, to the Most Holy Place,and even on the veil between the Holy and the Most Holy PlaceThe outer layer of the Tabernacle was brownsignifying Jesus would come as a manUnderneath this, is the scarlet layersignifying Jesus would shed his bloodUnderneath this,the whiter layersignifying He would make us pure as snowAnd then, the almost hidden truth;the beautiful Blue Purple Scarlet layersignifying the true gospel ofWater Spirit BloodThe only correct faith which allows usto go back to the Father, through Jesus ChristIt is interesting, that these beautiful colorsare the final layer between us and the Fatherand that this truth was hidden underneath the other coverings;yet not hidden at the gate of the Sanctuaryor the entrance to the Holy PlaceJust a thoughtIn Noah’s time it had never rained,and the people that didn't believein the "water"were not saved by God; but perishedIn Jesus time,the people that don't believein the "water" aspect of Salvationand the "cutting off" of all sinwill likewise perish at his coming;because of the "engraved" sins within their hearts (minds)Remember,the sacrifice of Jesus would be meaninglessif he didn't take all the sins with him to the crossEither he took all the sins with himand finished what he came to doand we are saved by faithas we are sinless by his righteousnessORwe choose not to believethat all our sins are gone and when he returnswe won't be able to stand and face himbecause we failed to believe the"Water" aspect of Salvationwhich essentially meanswe were neverspiritually circumcisedto become God's peopleyet, we were incorrectly believingto be covered by his bloodWhen Jesus said: "It is finished"Was it not finished?If the Son therefore shall make you free;You shall be free indeed!!Praise, Honor, and Glorybe unto Jesus Christ, the Living Son of the Living God!!Accept his free gift of Salvation by saying a prayer similar to this:Father in Heaven,in Jesus name I pray to thank you LordFor revealing to me that salvationis only found in your Holy Son JesusI confess Jesus,I am a sinner, destined for hellI have broken all your laws and commandmentsMasses of sin are in me,and I can do nothingbut sin over and over againSo I call upon your holy name Jesusand accept and believethat you, take me as I am,and that you have alreadytaken all my sins with thee to the crossAll I have to do is believe by faithand my heart is cleansed of all transgressionsand I instantly becomea child of God and thy Holy Spirit dwells within meThank you Lord Jesusfor being a wonderful lovingGod and SaviourTruly, You are most worthy ofall Praise, Honor, and Glory!!AMENHeb 10:12,14But this man,after he had offeredONE sacrificefor sinsFOREVER,sat down on the right hand of GodFor by ONE offeringhe has perfectedFOR EVERthem that are sanctified1 John 5:6This is he that came by water and bloodeven Jesus Christnot by water only,but by water and bloodAnd it is the Spirit that beareth witness,because the Spirit is truth1 Peter 3:21The like figure whereunto evenbaptism doth now also save usnot the putting away of the filth of the fleshbut the answer of a good consciencetoward God by the resurrection of Jesus ChristRejoice!! You are now a Child of God !!Reborn of the water and of the spiritAcceptable to God the Fatherbecause of the righteousness of ChristLet your light so shine!!Remembering always faith without works is deadand by works was faith made perfectJames 2:12So speak ye and so do,as they that will be judged by the law of liberty.and walk ye in the Spirit:LOVE, JOY, PEACE,LONGSUFFERING, GENTLENESSGOODNESS, FAITH, MEEKNESS, TEMPERANCEPEACE THAT PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDINGI myself have great peace within me for now I understandHow Jesus has taken all of my sins(past, present, and future) with him to the crossAnd if you can believe ithe has also taken all of yours!!With the correct faithwe are now accounted as righteousbefore God the Fatherbecause Jesus not only took all our sins to the crosshe has also paid the price for them in our placeIt's so simple !!If you don't believeby the correct faiththat Jesus has taken all of your sinswhen he returnsyou will still have your sins in your heart (mind)and you will not be able to standbefore him and his brightnessYou can believe your sins are gone and paid foror you can hold on to them and perish at his coming;because you didn't accept his free gift of SalvationIf you accept his free gift of Salvationyour heart is emptied of all sinand the true Holy Spirit can thus enterThis is the "rebirth" that Jesus said you must haveprior to entering the Kingdom of GodWe are accounted as righteous before the Fatheras we honor him, by honoring his Son Jesusand accepting his righteousnessas our garment that the Father looks upon…after we believethe WATER, the SPIRIT, the BLOODIn closing:We were born into sinWe must be "reborn" into righteousnessWhere do you believe Jesus took all the sins upon himself?In the Garden of Gethsemane?Did he take them at the cross?It is a very important question,as Salvation is based on you having the correct faiththat Jesus was who he was and accomplished what he came to doSince the entire sacrificial system of the old testamentforshadowed what Jesus would come and dowe can no longer believe just in the blood at the crossWe have to acknowledgethat even though the Lord didn’t plainly tell usthat Jesus took all the sins upon himself at his baptismHe has given us enough wisdomto see that the evidence is substantial !!People seem to forget how sly Satan is:Satan doesn’t want us to knowthat Jesus took all sins at his baptism;so that our sins will remain in our heartsand never get to the crossJesus basically saidif your mind even thinks about a sinyou may as well have done itHe was trying to show usthe great "degree" in which we are all sinnersWe are saturated with the disease of sin!!A person couldn't possibly pray enoughto cover all their sinsand since this is so,and sin can never enter heavenone man asked:Who then, could possibly be saved?and Jesus replied,with God all things are possibleThe only way anyone can stand at the coming of Christis to be completely COVERED by his righteousnessBut, we have to truly know who Jesus is,lest we fall into the multitude that says:Lord didn't we do great things in your name?Didn't we cast out devils in your name?And Jesus replies, I never knew you.(or perhaps you never knew me)The True Gospel of the Water, the Spirit, and the Bloodis that close relationship that we need to havewith our Lord and SaviorJesus has already paid the price for all sinsBut to be covered by his righteousnesswe, by the correct faith have to put all our sins on himThe Water, Spirit, Blood truth provides us with this correct faithIf your faith is incorrectJesus hasn't taken all your sins with him to the crossand you are still carrying them in the tables of your heartYou are essentiallytrying to be covered by the Blood of Christwithout having put your sins on the sacrificethrough the correct faiththat John, the High Priest transferred themat his BaptismThis results in your sins remaining in your heart:Jer 17:1The sin of Judahis written with a pen of Iron,and with point of a diamond:it is graven upon theTable of their Heart,and upon the horns of your altersThe moment(the blinking of an eye)when one understands the "Water" aspect of Salvationand sees and believes by true faiththat Jesus has already taken all their sins at his baptism;that is the moment they are reborn of the "WATER"Their sins, are instantly transferred to Jesusand his payment on the cross covers themThey are instantly a child of God from that very moment,as the Father sees only the righteousnessof Jesus when looking at themWHAT ABOUT DAILY SINS ?Yes, you will sin until you die,or until all things are made newBut even those sins are blotted outif you have the correct faithJesus does nothave to come back againto pay for your daily sinsHeb 10:12,14But this man,after he had offeredONE sacrificefor sinsFOREVERsat down on the right hand of GodFor byONE offeringhe has perfectedFOREVERthem that are sanctifiedWhen we sin,the Holy Spirit will convict us of these errorsand we mustconfess and acknowledge the sin,by repenting (being sorry)and turning away from that sinWE REPENT,BUT WE DO NOT HAVE TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS!!If we continue to ask for forgiveness,we do not have the correct faiththat he took all the sins past, present, and futureall at once and paid for all the sinspast, present, and future all at onceSatan doesn't want you to know,that after Jesus diedand paid the price for all sinyou no longer have to ask for forgiveness!!He wants you to keep askingthus denying your correct faiththat the sin is already gone and has already been paid forBecause, you have been reborn of the "WATER"Again, as the Holy Spirit reveals our sins from here on outwe acknowledge our sins,we repent (are sorry) for the sins,and we return to our true and correct faithof theWater Spirit and the BloodMeditating always,on how perfect and beautiful this Salvation really is!!THIS IS NOT A LICENSE TO SIN !!The Holy Spiritwill convict you deeply if you are thereby deceivedAnd who in their "right mind"would purposely, use this wonderful truthas a license to sinonce they realize that Jesushas truly freed them from all sin forever?This beautiful truth breaks the "binds" of Satan forever!!Once you truly believe this;the Holy Spirit gives you the powerto not want to do those things of the fleshy natureYes, we can fall back into that "fleshy nature"as it is always within us and tempting usSo to keep from falling back into our "fleshy nature"we must strive to always stay in the SPIRITMeditating always(daily)on this "Perfect Salvation"and working for the Lord dailyto reveal this beautiful gospel to othersWe now know, and understandhow a world of so many"so called" Christianscan be separated into"few there be that find it"Being in the first resurrectionis the "high calling" of Godand the correct faith in Jesusis the only way to be completely covered by his righteousnessBut, what happens to the multitude of the peoplewho appeared to be the good Christian people of the worldyet failed to have the correct faithwhich would have removed their "engraved" sinsfrom within their hearts (minds)and allowed them to stand at his coming?Obviously, having not been able to stand before Christat the first resurrectionthey will now fall within the groupthat will come forth at the second resurrectionAre we then to assumethat our loving Godwill punish them forever and everin the fires of Hellwith the rest of the wicked?Not at all,Our loving God will Save his entire Creation!!The Wages of Sin is Death not Eternal Life in HellFrom the Old Testament Hebrew Bible;SHEOL was translated to HELL(a chamber.... cave, tomb, or grave)When the Hebrew Bible was translated to GreekSHEOL then became HADES(unseen underworld for the dead)The concept of torment was not associated with SHEOLby any of the Old Testament ProphetsAs Christianity was arising the Levitical Priesthoodbecame the privileged "learned" in regard to the letter of the lawTherefore, they were respected and fearedfor they had the power of life and deathWhen Rome under Titus invaded Palestine in AD 70the temple was destroyed and eventually Rome accepted ChristianityAs the Popes of Roman Catholic Churchbegan their "holy apostolic succession"they quickly realized that fear and ignoranceworked much better than loveThe everlasting torments of Hellthus made its appearance in conjunctionwith the opposite alluring rewards of HeavenThis brought many peopleand much money into the churchYou were not allowed to have a Bibleas the church would instruct youin all matters concerning religionBut soon, an "enemy" would arisein the form of the Printing PressEx-communication from the churchwould be the result if anyone was caughtreading or having any portion of the Wycliffe BibleWilliam Tyndale and John Rogerswere burned at the stake for being translatorsTranslating from one language to anotherwas not always easy and errors were madeOne such example, was the translating of Hebrew and Greek wordsto the English words of eternal, everlasting and for ever and everThe hebrew word OLAM and the greek word AIONcan be simplified to the english equivalent of EON (age) for this explanationFirst of all, that which NEVER ceasescan only be in the SINGULAR formTherefore, if the hebrew OLAM or greek AIONequals the English EON (age) meaning TIME UNENDING(eternity)there could be but ONE such EON (age)One such time unendingYet many times,these words are used as PLURALS in our scripturesSo, if there are timeswhen there are more than one EONS (ages)We must concludethat one of these EONS (ages)must of necessity be of aLIMITED DURATIONTherefore, if translatorsrendered certain passagesFOR EVER AND EVERthis would have to be an errorbecause if FOR EVER means time unending (eternity)It would be incorrect to attachto TIME UNENDING (eternity)another equal period of TIME UNENDING (eternity)by the added words of AND EVERThis error results in the"ETERNAL" nature of HELLequaling in the same language our"ETERNAL" reign with ChristSo it would appear that our life with Christ is to be ETERNALand that our suffering in HELL is to be ETERNAL alsoYet, what did Paul write about the reign of Christ?1Cor 15:24,25Then shall the end come,when he (Christ)hands over the Kingdom to God the Fatherafter he has destroyed all dominion, authority, and powerFor he must reign UNTIL he has put all his enemies under his feetThe reign of Christ is to be of a LIMITED durationwhich will at some point come to a terminationJust as the Lake of Fire is to be of a LIMITED durationwhich will at some point come to a termination-after having accomplishedwhat it was truly designed byGod the Father to accomplishThe words"everlasting"... "evermore"... "for ever""fore ever and ever"... and "eternal"are no where found not even oncein any Hebrew or Greek manuscriptfrom which our modern language Bibles are translated!!One of the greatest lies about our loving Godhas made its way into the church and is being taught as truthInsinuating, that our Father in Heavenis a God of hatred and vengeanceand that he is the greatest of all hypocritesin that he teaches us to love our enemiesyet he will torture his enemies in fire for ALL eternityThis most evil doctrine was designedto insure that man would hate the loving CreatorThe truth is God, is not going toand never intended to burn anyone,in the Lake of Fire for all eternityWhy did God send his Son into the world?John 3:17For God sent not his Son into the worldto condemn the world;but that the WORLD through him might be SAVEDJohn 12:47for I came not to judge the world,but to SAVE the WORLDJohn 12:32And I, if I be lifted up from the earth,will draw ALL men unto meLuke 3:6And ALL flesh shall see the salvation of God1John 4:14And we have seen and do testify that the Fathersent the Son to be SAVIOUR of the WORLD1John 2:2And he (Jesus) is the propitiation (atoning sacrifice)for our sins: and not for ours only, but for the sins of the whole WORLD2Cor 5:19To wit, that God was in Christ,reconciling the WORLD unto himself,not imputing their trespasses unto them;and hath committed unto usthe word of reconciliationRom 11:32For God hath concluded them...

Hey All,TastyFaith is in search of an illustrator who will make deacons and pew warmers nervous. We are not a bakery, but a micro publisher that creates resources targeted at urban youth. We have a line of products called SHORTIE PAGES, designed to help city kids with reading and writing skills while teaching them a thing or two about JC. The illustrations of a few of the popular series really suck. I can say that, cuz I drew them eons ago!Anyway, I'd love to chat with someone who would be willing to create a few "pull out the stops" b/w illustrations--stuff kids could color--for a few clams.Please gimme a shout!GingerTop CookieTastyFaith

Hi everyone,Just wanted to tell you about my fairly-new webcomic, which you can preview here on the CCAS site, and read the rest (so far) of at www.doodze.com.Doodze is a cartoony fantasy comic about a race of tiny people in a world much bigger than them. The Doodzes are living a simple, quiet, care-free life, safe within their walled-in village. But circumstances beyond their control begin to force them to go outside into the great unknown, where danger and adventure await them.Doodze — A Tiny Epic. It’s like Smurfs meets Lord of the Rings.

Hey all! Been kicking around some of your sites and looking at your work - some interesting stuff. I've been working on a project for the last few weeks and it's finally done. Can't say it has much to do with Faith, but it does touch on an important topic - hand washing!Anyway, a story about it made the local paper of the city it's being published in, and the official launch is next week Wednesday (Sept. 23, 2009) I'll provide a link to the downloadable .pdf when it's available The cover is available for viewing with the article here: http://www.thepeterboroughexaminer.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=1752589If anyone would like help with their projects get in touch. www.ihorace.comKeep up the good work everybody.Martin

So I've made some executive decisions about my projects. here they are:(1) I haven't heard a word from Dallas about drawing Outcasts Chapter 2. Not even a reply to my email. So I've decided that I'll go back to being the artist for it. It's a compelling story with a chance to reach people, and I want to keep it up. Of course, now that school has started for me, it may be a long time before I get it up and ready. But that's how it has to be.(2) Faith Noir is going to be shortened. Instead of having one 40 page story, I'm going to have two 20 page stories. The reason being so I can get a product out sooner, which will make me more likely to actually finish it.Please pray for me on these. I think both projects are important and have the potential to reach people for Christ. But I'm a one man show, and between school and trying to find a church position to serve at, I don't have a lot of time to work on them. Pray that God will either send a lot free time my way or someone else that can help me with these projects. Thanks for all the encouragement ya'll send.

I've started a blog site for one of the characters in the novel I'm writing. He is a man of the cloth and blogs about how God is talking to him. Later, in the novel he will be wrestling with God much like Job and Jacob did. Right now I'm posting background stuff leading up to the beginning of the story.What I would ask of this group is some honest feedback about the authenticity of Hector's voice and the view of God he is trying to share.You can find his blog at http://www.hathrae.com/hector/ and leave comments there or here.If you would like to get more information about the novel over the next months, there is a place to subscribe to my newsletter.Thanks to everyone who spends the time to read it and give me feed back.Douglas G Clarke

Several years back Fish Without Feet Graphic Design and another CCAS'er started an endeavor to create a card game. Some of you may have seen samples of what the cards will closely resemble if you have looked at my artwork on here or my website. Though it has many elements of Christianity, it will not be a bible thumping, preaching type of game. It is our attempt to give the people who love to game, something they dont have to question the morality of.With that in mind, obviously hundreds of cards will need to be made up. What I am looking for is weapon, armor, and helmet contribution art. It doesnt have to be colored or inked...I can do that myself if you cannot or dont want to. So pretty simple stuff. The only thing it MUST be, is UNIQUE...no copy written stuff. So please dont get me in trouble with the law. This is your chance to be creative and go crazy, there are no limitations on the type or style of what we are wanting. There is no compensation for this, except exposure if and when the game gets published. As of right now I am planning to have an ARTIST card, which will list the artists who contributed. I may also do what I have seen on some cards which list the art by: Joe Blow, at the bottom of the actual card.Creators: Many of you have your own COOL characters. If they have a weapon that you would like featured, let me know, and I would love to feature it, and give you (c) on it. For instance...you have a comic book called Hand of God. The lead character runs around with an over sized mace. We would feature the mace on the card, and actually give it the name...HAND OF GOD or whatever the mace is actually called. This again, would give some exposure to you, and also your creation. Please contact me for more details.**Check out my photos for samples of the cards, they will be a bit different, these were just samples I worked up to get an idea of how I wanted them. **Read more…
Hey guys and girls!Hope all is well...Well, lately I've been on a coloring groove...I've been helping my best bud in coloring his pieces and have done so for some time, cause helping him meant helping me hone in on my coloring skills (photoshop)....but it hit me recently that I can be of some service to others out there and help them, both in a professional and spiritual sense.Anywho, just thought I'd put that out there. If anyone needs a colorist or and even an inker contact me at ignitestudio@yahoo.com or leave me a messege on my page and we'll talk (pros and cons, deadlines, etc.)...Remember, Iron sharpens Iron!!!......God Bless!!!Note: I will be selective in my assistance due to the number of people that might need/want my help...Read more…

I'm continuing my commissioned project “Spiked Halo and Reconciler” and only have 4 more pages to go!! Then I will be back onto Angeldreams #4. In the mean time I currently have an AMAZING surprise guest artist working on Angeldreams #5. I can NOT wait to let the cat out of the bag.Also we are looking for a LOGO for our comic “Island of Conformity”. This comic will be re-released next year in full color featuring an amazing wrap around cover by Jeff Slemons. I'll post a blog about the rules.Website updates: All thumbnail links in the Angeldreams “Early Design and Sketches” Gallery are up and running! Currently we are in the process of updating the Angeldreams “Character page”!!And be sure to check out my abstract/emo art at The Art of Mark MeltonRead more…
Whew!!! It's been hectic, but productive. I had to cut the amount of pages I'm doing a week to 6pgs. Much better with time. So now I have a month and a half and I'll be done with the pen and inks for Volume 3. Then I'll have to put it in the computer and graytone and word it. Please pray for me to receive wisdom on knowing how many pages I should due a week to keep my deadline.I should be getting about 10 copies of Volume 1 and I'm excited! The dream is here! Next is to get it out there and let God grow it! I'll soon have a sister website from my publisher with twitter and stuff. That's a blessing! I feel God wants me to just focus on the art and the marketing and stuff he'll take care of. So I'm trusting in Jesus. It's hard to let go of that aspect of the comic, but it would be foolish of me to think I can do a better job than God! And I have had some foolish thoughts!

I think the style should be like Stan Lee - bold and colourful. I think it could work if someone does the backgrounds, someone else does the figures and someone else the colouring. Special attention will be given to wow effects like where Jesus starts to glow when Elijah and Moses are with Him on the mountain. It must look exciting and still be the Word of God.

I believe the Bible is the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth. But lots of people have to go to their Pastor/Priest/etc to have certain verses and words explained to them. It is good to ask your minister about the Word of God, but if it could have been explained in the Bible already in normal English it would help so much more. The translation in the Comic Bible Project would be a relatively simple process: It would be based on the King James - which I believe to be the best translation ever as other translations leave out important verses. I would replace the thee's and thou's in the KJV with normal English. Then replace all Christianese and Greek/Hebrew words with the literal meanings - this would make the Bible a whole lot more understandable and self-explanatory. Jesus said we should be like children - but some of the words and terms used in the Bible need to be explained before a child can know what it means. If everything is in everyday words it becomes self explanatory.

Why the Gospel really is the "GOOD NEWS" for ALL mankind Christ spoke ONLY in parables when talking with the masses, Matt 13:34 "ALL these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in PARABLES; and without a parable spake He NOT unto them" PARABLES ARE SPIRITUAL A parable is a story that contains in figurative or symbolic language a higher moral or spiritual truth Parables are HIGHER, SPIRITUAL, GLORIOUS teachings of ETERNAL things Literally they are of little consequence; Spiritually they are of enormous consequence But without knowing what the symbols represent in a parable, no one could ever understand the higher meaning Therefore the multitudes of people did not understand the teaching of Jesus Christ, because He did not explain the meaning of the symbols to the masses, only to His disciples in private Some parables require only a little spiritual understanding Example: The Parable of a Beam in One’s Eye There are few believers who would not understand the meaning of this parable, although they might not practice its teaching Others such as The Parable of the Prodigal Son requires much more spiritual understanding, as there are many more spiritual truths within this story Many Christians can only understand parables that require very little spiritual understanding When reading the "deeper" parables, they can not comprehend The higher meaning which is totally missed, and/or not believed A simple example: "Another parable spoke He unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened" Jesus didn’t explain this parable, So what does it mean? Most, ...certainly understand, that leaven (like yeast) put into dough will cause the dough to rise through fermentation But what is the spiritual application of this parable? Paul tells us that, 1Cor5:6 "Know ye not that a little leaven leavens the whole lump" But who believes this parable? According to Jesus, the kingdom of God is like this parable of the leaven and the lump The kingdom of God moves and works throughout the entirety of the universe until the WHOLE of God’s creation is brought under its influence But who believes it? The time comes when Jesus Christ will turn over the kingdom of God to His Father: 1Cor 15:24,28b "Then comes the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when He shall have put down all rule and all authority and power … that GOD MAY BE ALL IN ALL" Then the whole lump will be leavened with God!! Everyone—ALL This parable is not literal The kingdom of God is not literally "leaven in a lump of dough!! These teachings are SPIRITUAL!!! They teach GREAT SPIRITUAL TRUTHS!!! Every parable teaches a spiritual truth If you do not understand the parable of the leaven and the dough- you don’t understand the gospel!! Because the leaven in the dough is like the kingdom of God and Jesus came preaching the "GOSPEL" OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD!!! You see... if the leaven does NOT leaven the WHOLE lump, then it is NOT "like the kingdom of God" Anything that does not involve the whole (everyone) cannot be "like" the kingdom of God For anything to be "like" the kingdom of God... it must involve the whole, the all, everyone, all mankind Therefore Jesus said... The kingdom of God is "like" leaven that leavens the WHOLE LUMP!!! NOW THEN... Who will read this and SEE and UUNDERSTAND: To be Saviour of the World...One must SAVE the entire WORLD The FIREMAN... I teach that Yahushuah (Jesus) is the Saviour of the world- and that he can not be SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD- and not SAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD I get replies that Christ can be the Saviour of the world, and yet NOT SAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD They give me this type of proof: When a fireman goes into a burning building to save trapped people, what happens if these trapped people refuse to be saved? Is the fireman not still a fireman simply because some do not wish to be saved? Here we see the foolishness of the carnal mind at work desperately grasping for straws to support an unscriptural theory- that Christ TRIES to save everyone... (just like a fireman tries to save those trapped in a burning building), but is unable to save everyone because many REFUSE to be saved Therefore Christ is STILL the Saviour of the world even if He doesn’t save everyone in the world I have been told by Christians many times that most of humanity will CHOOSE to be burned in the pain of literal hell fire for all ETERNITY, rather than to be saved by Jesus Christ UTTER FOOLISHNESS!! Only an insane person would prefer to be burned in literal torturing flames of fire rather than to be saved by a fireman!! Futhermore, Any fireman worth his salt will save men, women, children, and even cats, dogs, and other pets, WHETHER THEY WANT TO BE SAVED OR NOT Imagine a mother being told by a fireman that he left her little girl back in a burning building because the little girl didn’t want to be rescued by a fireman? Jesus Christ does not suffer the limitations of a fireman! Jesus Christ IS GOD! God does what He WILLS, and God wills to save all humanity (1Tim 2:4 and Isaiah 46:9-11) As always, the God of Perfect Love has a Perfect Plan 2Peter 3:9 The Lord is...not willing that ANY should perish Rom 11:32 For God hath concluded them... ALL ... in UNBELIEF, that he might have mercy upon ALL 1Tim 4:10 because we trust in the living GOD, who is the SAVIOUR of ALL men, specially (but not only) of those that believe 1Tim 2:4 Who will have ALL men to be SAVED and to come unto the knowledge of the truth Luke 3:6 And ALL flesh shall see the salvation of God John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw ALL men unto me 1John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be SAVIOUR of the WORLD 2Cor 5:19 To wit, that GOD was in CHRIST, reconciling the WORLD unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation John 1:29 Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the WORLD God sent Yahushuah (Jesus)... to be SAVIOUR of the entire WORLD Rom 5:19 For by one man's disobedience MANY WERE MADE SINNERS (MANY means ALL) so by the obedience of one SHALL MANY BE MADE RIGHTEOUS (MANY means ALL) DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THE BIBLE Do you really, I mean REALLY BELIEVE the first half of 1Cor 15:22 "FOR AS IN ADAM. ..ALL...DIE?" (ALL OR MANY?) Do you really, I mean REALLY BELIEVE the last half, "EVEN SO IN CHRIST SHALL ..ALL.. BE MADE ALIVE?" (ALL or MANY?) Do you believe that Yahushuah (Jesus) only "wants or wishes" to save the world? Do you BELIEVE "our Saviour, God, who wants and wishes for all mankind be saved and come into a knowledge of the truth" is a proper translation of 1Tim 2:4? Do you believe "Who WILLS that ALL MANKIND BE SAVED" is also the proper translation? Do you BELIEVE Isa 46:11? "I have spoken it (as in He has spoken it in 1Tim 2:4 for example) I WILL ALSO BRING IT TO PASS: I have PURPOSED it, I WILL ALSO DO IT" Isa 46:9-10 "I AM GOD, and there is none like me Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My COUNSEL SHALL STAND, and I WILL DO ALL MY PLEASURE” YOU CANNOT BELIEVE BOTH; that God "WILLS" to save ALL mankind and that He WILL perform ALL His "PLEASURE" and will bring about ALL that He has "SPOKEN" and then BELIEVE... that He will NOT save ALL mankind and will NOT accomplish ALL His WILL and will NOT do all His PLEASURE and His COUNSEL will NOT stand Can Yahushuah (Jesus) be SAVIOUR of the entire WORLD and NOT SAVE the entire WORLD? Will Yahushuah (Jesus) FAIL the Father and NOT SAVE the entire world? Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Isaiah 26:9 for when thy judgments are in the earth the inhabitants of the world WILL LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS 1Cor 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned he shall suffer loss but he himself shall be SAVED yet so as by FIRE ALL things work together for good and Yahushuah (Jesus) will SAVE the entire world The Prize and "High Calling" of God, is to be in the first resurrection and be able to stand before him- and not to go through Purification by Fire Remember, the Bible proclaims: 1Co 12:3 and that no man can say that Yahushuah (Jesus) is the Lord, but BY the Holy Ghost It is this same Holy Spirit which seals us unto the day of redemption Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, Whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption And so shall it be, even with the “unbelievers” when God’s judgments are in the earth the inhabitants will learn righteousness they will receive the Holy Spirit and they will bow and confess Yahushuah (Jesus) is Lord Rom 14:11 For it is written, (in Isaiah 45:23) AS I LIVE, saith the Lord, (does this sound like "maybe" he really means it?) every knee SHALL bow to me, (do you think “shall” means “maybe” or “possibly”?) and every tongue shall confess to God (do you think “every” means just a few?) Isa 45:22, 23 “Look unto me, and be ye SAVED, ALL the ends of the earth; For I am God and there is none else I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, (what part of the word “not” do people not understand?) That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved AND BELIEVE ME... those who have "their part" in the Lake of Fire will be calling upon the Name of the Lord- They will learn righteousness They will bow before him and they will confess him as Lord IS IT SINKING IN... Has the LIGHT BEGUN TO SHINE The Consuming Spiritural FIRE of GOD We are saved by grace through faith (Eph 2:8) However, that does not purge us from all our filthy thoughts and deeds No, there is more There is also a consuming FIRE that God uses on us: "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is JESUS CHRIST Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, WOOD, HAY, STUBBLE; Every man’s work shall be made manifest; for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed BY FIRE; and the FIRE shall TRY EVERY MAN’S WORK of what sort it is If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward If any man’s work shall be BURNED, he shall SUFFER LOSS; but... [pay close attention to this BIG BUT] BUT HE HIMSELF [the one who had his works burned and consumed in God’s consuming fire] SHALL BE SAVED [What will save him?], yet so AS BY FIRE" (1Cor 3:11-15)!!! Ah dear readers, can we begin to understand the workings of God? God consumes with fire, the wood, hay and stubble in our lives The things that don’t deserve to continue But he REFINES the gold, silver, and precious stones (those doctrines and godly character traits of God’s spirit that abide the fire) It is figurative language, it is an analogy, it is a parable, it is metaphorical (where one thing is called another thing) Our lives have either qualities of character (which are likened to gold and precious stones, things of value to refine and retain), or gross lacks in character (which are likened to wood, hay, and stubble and which are not worthy to retain or preserve) And just as real literal fire is used to refine and purify gold and precious metals, so God’s SPIRITUAL FIRE refines and purifies us from our sinful and carnal nature And likewise, as real literal fire is used to burn up wood and stubble, so God’s all consuming SPIRITUAL FIRE will consume and burn up all the impurities in our life These things MUST DIE This purging is the SECOND DEATH And whether the person God subjects to His consuming fire has many good qualities or none, the person himself shall be purged, purified, and SAVED BY GOD’S ALL-CONSUMING SPIRITUAL FIRE!!! We just read it in God’s Holy Word How can any deny it? Every person who has ever lived will be subjected to the cleaning fire of God’s spirit God is the JUDGE (Rev 20;12) ...NOT Satan This judgment throne is "WHITE" not black! God judges in righteousness "He shall judge the world with RIGHTEOUSNESS" (Psalm 96:13) "Because He [God] hath appointed a day, in which He will judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS" (Acts 17:31) Next I present a Scripture that many Christians hate I’ll bet you have never heard a sermon on this verse We read that God has appointed a day (a period of time) in which He will "JUDGE" the whole world Revelation 20:10-15 IS THAT DAY OF JUDGMENT! Now we know that those not found in the book of life will be put into FIRE, and they will be TORMENTED This is certainly part of this judgment But it is not literal fire Literal fire burns up physical things and literal fire cannot harm spiritual things So what does the fire do or accomplish? ...MUCH! This judgment in Revelation 20 IS that worldwide judgment spoken of in many prophecies But is the purpose of this worldwide judgment to torture people by burning their flesh in real fire for all eternity? Is that HOW God judges in "righteousness"? Absolutely not We just read where God burns up our fleshly WORKS, and this is "tormenting" for sure But God does not torture our flesh for all eternity Don’t get me wrong, there will be severe chastisements on those who despise God and His Savior and His Gospel But out of their ashes will come salvation!! Here is another marvelous Scripture which answers what happens to sinning humanity when God JUDGES THE WORLD in righteousness "For he [GOD] bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low, HE LAYETH IT LOW, even to the ground, he bringeth it even to the dust" (Isa 26:5) Make no mistake, God will judge the wicked with great severity However, ALWAYS FOR A BENEVOLENT PURPOSE: "With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when Thy judgments are in the earth, THE INHABITANTS OF THE WORLD WILL LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS" (Isaiah 26:9)!! There will come a time when those who only knew how to blaspheme the name of God, will come to LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS They will not just "hear" of righteousness, no, they will actually "LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS"! The whole book of Isaiah speaks of judgments on Israel and on the nations But the end of all these judgments is SALVATION TO ALL Notice Isa 45:22-23, "Look unto me, and BE YE SAVED, ALL THE ENDS OF THE EARTH: for I am God, and there is none else I have sworn by Myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness [as in, ‘For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; Who WILL HAVE ALL MEN TO BE SAVED, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth,’ I Tim. 2:3-4] , and shall not return, That unto me EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW, EVERY TONGUE SHALL SWEAR" (See also: Phil 2: 9-11 & 1Cor 12:3) God’s words will NOT return empty or void When God speaks, it will be done When God wills, it will be done When God desires, His desires WILL BE DONE: "Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, MY COUNSEL SHALL STAND, and I WILL DO ALL MY PLEASURE ... I have spoken it, I WILL ALSO BRING IT TO PASS; I HAVE PURPOSED IT, I WILL ALSO DO IT" (Isa 46:10-11) Oh the blasphemy of those who teach that God’s most heartfelt desires WILL NOT COME TO PASS, but will utterly fail!!! Jesus Christ is not the "potential" Savior of the world; HE IS THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD!!! HE WILL SAVE THE WORLD!!! How many self-appointed, bible-thumping, doomsday, fire and brimstone, eternal torture in hell preachers believe these verses in Isaiah? Not one that I know of! Most Christians have never been taught the Scriptures that I am giving you These things are despised by many who call themselves "Christian" And yet, God’s Word is FULL of such statements of God’s salvation to all Are you too... worshiping a God of Failure? A God Who always has to go from plan A to plan B A God Who is running a "disaster control operation" from heaven A God Who supposedly created creatures HE CANNOT CONTROL- Creatures that will wreck His original plan And the foolish and unscriptural teaching is that God created a PERFECT archangel who then SINNED AND REBELLED AGAINST God But... BUT..., here is the evil in this teaching: God did not intend, neither did He KNOW that this was ever going to happen!!! Then, supposedly, God created PERFECT MAN and put him in the garden of Eden, and never intended for him to sin or rebel, nor did He know it was going to happen!! FOILED AGAIN!! Then God sent His Son Jesus Christ to BE: "The SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD" (1John 4:15) And now we are taught by most Christians that JESUS CHRIST FAILED!!! He wanted to save the world, He tried to save the world, it was, in fact, His VERY WILL that all mankind be saved (1Tim 2:4 & 4:10), but He COULDN'T DO IT Man's phantom "free will" proved to be FAR TO POWERFUL FOR THE SON OF GOD TO OVERCOME FAILED AGAIN!!! How many times must your God FAIL before you find ANOTHER GOD? WAKE UP PEOPLE.... God created EVIL, not Satan or any other supposed power greater than God (Isa 45:7) God uses evil for good GOD planted the tree of the knowledge of good AND evil in the garden If man wanted to know "good" he had to partake of the tree of EVIL as well BOTH WERE IN THE SAME TREE, IN THE SAME FRUIT!!! Both good and evil experiences are necessary in the building of Godly Character, and so God provides both God knew what He was doing, He knows what He is doing, He will continue doing exactly what He planned FROM THE BEGINNING!!! God is not... operating a "disaster control center" from his throne of the universe He is not trying to "pick up the pieces" of a totally unexpected tragedy that he never saw coming He is not trying to "figure out" a way to somehow to get things back to being as good as they once were He is not trying to "figure out" a way to out smart Satan- and he is not "falling behind" numerically as far as how many will be saved and how many will be lost God has a plan, and he is working out that plan to perfection on a perfect schedule God has a "will" and he has his "intention" There are times, when we will go against his will accorded with his divine plan- but we will never ever go against his intention which is his intended final result Contrary to popular belief; his "will" was that man would sin and indeed be lost for a period of time but his "intention" is for ALL to be saved, and come to a knowledge of the truth- thus becoming Sons and Daughters of the Most High It was God- who planted the tree of the knowledge of good and evil-not Satan It was God who put Satan there to do the tempting It was God who made Adam and Eve Spiritually weak so that they would indeed partake of the tree according to plan Rom 8:20-22 For the creature was made subject to vanity not willingly but by reason of him (Elohim) who hath subjected the same in hope; because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of Elohim. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain until now Vanity-empty, vain, profitless, depravity (wickedness) Bondage-slavery, subjection Corruption-spoil, ruin, deprave defile decay, destroy, perish Groan-moan, calamity murmur grief anguish Travail-pangs, pain, travail as in birth, Pain-anguish, starving Elohim himself... subjected the whole creation to vanity and it is Elohim himself who will deliver the whole world from the bondage of corruption, pain, and suffering The Lamb of God was "slain from the FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD" The Salvation of Adam and Eve and the entire world was prepared way before they were ever even created Why do you suppose there was but one tree containing both qualities of good and evil? Because you can't separate good from evil You can't appreciate good- if you have never experienced evil You can't appreciate light- if you have never experienced darkness You can't appreciate eating if you have never been hungry You can't become a Son or Daughter of God without knowing good and evil The Father commissioned Yahushuah (Jesus) to be the Saviour of the world Will he fail the Father, and not save the entire world? Read my writing: Most Christians will die in their sins You will then understand why Yahushuah (Jesus) said "few there be" that will find the narrow way and stand before him without sin The majority... will have "their part" in the Lake of fire and as was stated, some will receive few lashes (so to speak) and some will receive many- but you will not come out until you've paid the uttermost farthling How can anyone be a minister of the gospel and doubt the God of Perfect Love saving ALL of His children? 2Peter 3:9 The Lord is...not willing that ANY should perish Rom 11:32 For God hath concluded them... ALL ... in UNBELIEF, that he might have mercy upon ALL 1Tim 4:10 because we trust in the living GOD, who is the SAVIOUR of ALL men, specially (but not only) of those that believe 1Tim 2:4 Who will have ALL men to be SAVED and to come unto the knowledge of the truth Luke 3:6 And ALL flesh shall see the salvation of God John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw ALL men unto me 1John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be SAVIOUR of the WORLD 2Cor 5:19 To wit, that GOD was in CHRIST, reconciling the WORLD unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation John 1:29 Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the WORLD God sent Yahushuah (Jesus)... to be SAVIOUR of the entire WORLD Rom 5:19 For by one man's disobedience MANY WERE MADE SINNERS (MANY means ALL) so by the obedience of one SHALL MANY BE MADE RIGHTEOUS (MANY means ALL) DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THE BIBLE Do you really, I mean REALLY BELIEVE the first half of 1Cor 15:22 "FOR AS IN ADAM...ALL...DIE?" (ALL OR MANY?) Do you really, I mean REALLY BELIEVE the last half, "EVEN SO IN CHRIST SHALL ..ALL.. BE MADE ALIVE?" (ALL or MANY?) Do you believe that Yahushuah (Jesus) only "wants or wishes" to save the world? Do you BELIEVE "our Saviour, God, who wants and wishes for all mankind be saved and come into a knowledge of the truth" is a proper translation of 1Tim 2:4? Do you believe "Who WILLS that ALL MANKIND BE SAVED" is also the proper translation? Do you BELIEVE Isa 46:11? "I have spoken it (as in He has spoken it in 1Tim 2:4 for example) I WILL ALSO BRING IT TO PASS: I have PURPOSED it, I WILL ALSO DO IT" Isa 46:9-10 "I AM GOD, and there is none like me Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My COUNSEL SHALL STAND, and I WILL DO ALL MY PLEASURE” YOU CANNOT BELIEVE BOTH; that God "WILLS" to save ALL mankind and that He WILL perform ALL His "PLEASURE" and will bring about ALL that He has "SPOKEN" and then BELIEVE... that He will NOT save ALL mankind and will NOT accomplish ALL His WILL and will NOT do all His PLEASURE and His COUNSEL will NOT stand Can Yahushuah (Jesus) be SAVIOUR of the entire WORLD and NOT SAVE the entire WORLD? Will Yahushuah (Jesus) FAIL the Father and NOT SAVE the entire world? Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Isaiah 26:9 for when thy judgments are in the earth the inhabitants of the world WILL LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS 1Cor 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned he shall suffer loss but he himself shall be SAVED yet so as by FIRE ALL things work together for good- and Yahushuah (Jesus) will SAVE the entire world The Prize and "High Calling" of God, is to be in the first resurrection and be able to stand before him- and not to go through Purification by Fire Remember, the Bible proclaims: 1Co 12:3 and that no man can say that Yahushuah (Jesus) is the Lord, but BY the Holy Ghost It is this same Holy Spirit which seals us unto the day of redemption Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, Whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption And so shall it be, even with the “unbelievers” when God’s judgments are in the earth the inhabitants will learn righteousness they will receive the Holy Spirit and they will bow and confess Yahushuah (Jesus) is Lord Rom 14:11 For it is written, (in Isaiah 45:23) AS I LIVE, saith the Lord, (does this sound like "maybe" he really means it?) every knee SHALL bow to me, (do you think “shall” means “maybe” or “possibly”?) and every tongue shall confess to God (do you think “every” means just a few?) Isa 45:22, 23 “Look unto me, and be ye SAVED, ALL the ends of the earth; For I am God and there is none else I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, (what part of the word “not” do people not understand?) That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved AND BELIEVE ME... those who have "their part" in the Lake of Fire will be calling upon the Name of the Lord- They will learn righteousness They will bow before him and they will confess him as Lord HOW GOOD OF A POTTER IS GOD? Rom 9:20-21 "Nay but, O man, Who art thou that replies against GOD? Shall the thing formed (that’s us) say to HIM that formed it, (that’s GOD) Why have YOU made me thus? Rom 9:20-21 Has not the Potter (GOD) power over the clay (man), of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto DISHONOUR?" GOD IS THE POTTER AND WE ARE THE POT Could anything be plainer? GOD, the Potter, does not owe an explanation to the pot as to WHY He made the pot the way HE desired!! And God desires to make some pots honorable and some pots DISHONORABLE Why? Because He is a mean and nasty God? NO!!! because HE has a plan, a purpose,and intentions, to save ALL humanity in the end That... IS THE "WILL" OF GOD Isaiah 26:9 for when thy JUDGMENTS are in the earth the inhabitants of the world will LEARN RIGHTEOUSNESS Then what about HELL.... IF YOU DIE...You don't BURN forever If you BURN forever...YOU DON'T DIE From the Old Testament Hebrew Bible; Sheol was translated to hell (a chamber.... cave, tomb, or grave) When the Hebrew Bible was translated to Greek Sheol then became hades (unseen underworld for the dead) The concept of torment was not associated with Sheol by any of the old testament prophets As Christianity was arising The Levitical Priesthood became the privileged "learned" in regard to the letter of the law Therefore, they were respected and feared for they had the power of life and death When Rome under Titus invaded Palestine in AD 70 the temple was destroyed and eventually Rome accepted Christianity As the Popes of Roman Catholic Church began their "holy apostolic succession" They quickly realized that fear and ignorance worked much better than love The everlasting torments of Hell thus made its appearance in conjunction with the opposite alluring rewards of Heaven This brought many people and much money into the church You were not allowed to have a Bible as the church would instruct you in all matters concerning religion But soon, an "enemy" would arise in the form of the Printing Press Ex-communication from the church would be the result if anyone was caught reading or having any portion of the Wycliffe Bible William Tyndale and John Rogers were burned at the stake for being translators Translating from one language to another was not always easy and errors were made One such example, was the translating of Hebrew and Greek words to the English words of eternal, everlasting and for ever and ever The hebrew word OLAM and the greek word AION can be simplified to the english equivalent of EON(age) for this explanation First of all, that which NEVER ceases can only be in the SINGULAR form Therefore, if the hebrew OLAM or greek AION equals the english EON(age) meaning TIME UNENDING (eternity) there could be but ONE such EON (age) One such time unending Yet many times, these words are used as PLURALS in our scriptures So, if there are times when there are more than one EONS (ages) We must conclude that one of these EONS (ages) must of necessity be of A LIMITED DURATION Therefore, if translators rendered certain passages FOR EVER AND EVER this would have to be an error because if FOR EVER means time unending (eternity) It would be incorrect to attach to TIME UNENDING (eternity) another equal period of TIME UNENDING (eternity) by the added words of AND EVER This error results in the "ETERNAL" nature of HELL equaling in the same language our "ETERNAL" reign with Christ So it would appear that our life with Christ is to be ETERNAL and that our suffering in HELL is to be ETERNAL also Yet, what did Paul write about the reign of Christ? 1Cor 15:24,25 Then shall the end come, when he (Christ) hands over the Kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power For he must reign UNTIL he has put all his enemies under his feet The reign of Jesus is to be of a LIMITED duration which will at some point come to a termination Just as the Lake of Fire is to be of a LIMITED duration which will at some point come to a termination after having completed what it was truly designed by God the Father to accomplish The words "everlasting"... "evermore"... "for ever"... "fore ever and ever"... and "eternal"... are no where found.... not even once in any Hebrew or Greek manuscript from which our modern language Bibles are translated!! One of the greatest lies about our loving God has made its way into the church and is being taught as truth Insinuating, that our Father in Heaven is a God of hatred and vengeance And that he is the greatest of all hypocrites in that he teaches us to love our enemies yet he will torture his enemies in fire for all eternity This most evil doctrine was designed to insure that man would hate the loving Creator The truth is God, is not going to and never intended to burn anyone, in the Lake of Fire for all eternity The first time Jesus came, it was NOT to condemn or judge the world but to save the world The next time Jesus comes it will be to judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS Those that will be cast into the Lake of Fire, will have their carnal sinful natures burned away!! In the consuming, purifying presence of God they will learn righteousness Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Isaiah 26:9 for when thy judgments are in the earth the inhabitants of the world will learn RIGHTEOUSNESS 1Cor 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned he shall suffer loss but he himself shall be saved yet so as by FIRE Yes, there will be suffering in this Lake of Fire for those who will be cast therein shall burn in accordance with their sinful carnal natures The fire will not be quenched until all the sinful nature is burned away; resulting in that person learning obedience and being made perfect The wages of sin is death not eternal life in Hell If you die…you don’t burn forever If you burn forever…you don’t die If the wages of sin was to burn eternally in Hell then Jesus,would have had to burn eternally in Hell for taking all sin upon himself The wages of sin is death followed by a resurrection Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power Rev 2:11 He that overcometh shall not be HURT (not killed) of the second death Malachi 3:3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up He explained that in refining silver one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot then she thought again about the verse that says He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver She then asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined The man answered yes he not only had to sit there holding the silver in the fire; but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames it would be destroyed!! The woman was silent for a moment and then asked the silversmith: How do you know when the silver is fully refined? He smiled at her and answered Oh, that's easy- when I see My IMAGE in it!! Is Elohim able to redeem anyone from hell? The Translators of the King James Version translated the HEBREW word "SHEOL" to the ENGLISH word "HELL" thirty times If sheol is indeed hell, is God able to redeem anyone from this "hell"? Psalms 49:15 But God WILL redeem my soul from from the power of the GRAVE: for he shall receive me Selah The word "grave" in this verse is the Hebrew word "sheol" which is translated "hell" in no less than thirty other verses So if "sheol" really is "hell" then there is "REDEMPTION" FROM HELL And in the GREEK: 1Cor 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O GRAVE, where is thy VICTORY? The word "grave" in this verse is the Greek word "hades" which is translated "hell" in no less than ten other verses So if "hades" really is "hell" then there is "VICTORY" OVER HELL But the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death What is Brimstone anyway? Does it make the fire hotter and more painful? Is it caustic to the skin causing greater pain? Brimstone is defined by the dictionary as Sulfur Sulfur, is often called brimstone, burning stone, or ignited sulfur It has been used in religious ceremonies for PURIFYING or fumigating buildings and for bleaching cloth (Encyclopedia Britannica, page 536) Methods of Production: Producers describe their method of obtaining sulfur from the ore as PURIFICATION BY FIRE (Page 537) Interesting thought- Purification by Fire Purification by a Lake of Fire? Physical Properties Sulfur is TASTELESS, ODORLESS, AND OF NO EFFECT ON THE SKIN (page 537) Sulfur is a POOR CONDUCTOR OF HEAT AND ELECTRICITY (page538) Interesting thought- A poor conductor of HEAT An even more interesting thought- So if God were to put enough Brimstone into the Lake of Fire, it would actually have the potential of protecting those in the fire like an asbestos suit!! Am I going to fast for anyone? Do you see where I am going with this line of thinking? Malachi 3:3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver The FIREMAN... I teach that Yahushuah (Jesus) is the Saviour of the world- and that he can not be SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD- and not SAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD I get replies that Christ can be the Saviour of the world, and yet NOT SAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD They give me this type of proof: When a fireman goes into a burning building to save trapped people, what happens if these trapped people refuse to be saved? Is the fireman not still a fireman simply because some do not wish to be saved? Here we see the foolishness of the carnal mind at work desperately grasping for straws to support an unscriptural theory- that Christ TRIES to save everyone... (just like a fireman tries to save those trapped in a burning building), but is unable to save everyone because many REFUSE to be saved Therefore Christ is STILL the Saviour of the world even if He doesn’t save everyone in the world I have been told by Christians many times that most of humanity will CHOOSE to be burned in the pain of literal hell fire for all ETERNITY, rather than to be saved by Jesus Christ UTTER FOOLISHNESS!! Only an insane person would prefer to be burned in literal torturing flames of fire rather than to be saved by a fireman!! Futhermore, Any fireman worth his salt will save men, women, children, and even cats, dogs, and other pets, WHETHER THEY WANT TO BE SAVED OR NOT Imagine a mother being told by a fireman that he left her little girl back in a burning building because the little girl didn’t want to be rescued by a fireman? Jesus Christ does not suffer the limitations of a fireman! Jesus Christ IS GOD! God does what He WILLS, and God wills to save all humanity (1Tim 2:4 and Isaiah 46:9-11) NOW... Who will come and read Why it is: "Most Christians will die in their sins" therefore having to go through the purification by FIRE which is not the eternal burning forever and ever HELL they have been lied to about- for all their lives Preview: I am an Emissary for Yahushuah Messiah proclaiming the Washing of Rebirth and Renewal by the Set-Apart Spirit After very much praying, YAHUSHUAH enlightened me, that the majority of his "CALLED" were living in the SCARLET layer of his Tabernacle I was shown this was not the Correct Faith, and that the "FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT" would be the "CHOSEN" from this layer; whom would proceed to the final layer of Blue, Purple, Scarlet...Water, Spirit Blood and have the correct faith which would remove the engraved sins and allow them to stand at his coming Satan's greatest deception has to do with the following colors and the results will be that most Christians will FALL at the coming of the Lord and they will DIE in their sins This will be one of his greatest accomplisments and will result in his greatest enjoyment and laughter Read my writing Most Christians will die in their sins and focus in on these pictures which are within it
