If someone lied to you how would it make you feel? And if someone told you the TRUTH how would it make you feel? Jesus Christ is the TRUTH and it is important to God that you accept TRUTH rather than lies. Many people on this planet watch television and I’ve watched television for many years. Do you believe that television is the image of god? I want to read to you Corinthian’s 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on to them. When you come to the Lord you have to be willing to accept TRUTH; the imagery shown on Television is not the image of Jesus Christ. Do you believe that television is teaching you how to live in Repentance? Because Jesus told us to Go and Sin No more. The imagery on television is in direct conflict with the words of Jesus Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If television is not directing you to the narrow door it can be only be leading you to Hell. If you are struggling with Repentance and you are watching television; it could be part of the problem.
Do You Go to Church? Many people who go to Church don’t have the Holy Spirit—So… What does this mean? They are being MISLED! Make no mistake if you don’t have the Holy Spirit you are in Sin. So… What does this all mean? The Church is not working for these people. Some of them believe that they have a relationship with Jesus because they go to Church; This has become a collective belief and a TERRIBLE ASSUMPTION. Imagine Standing before Jesus after being involved with Church for 30 years and him telling you that he doesn’t know you. There are MANY being led Astray by this ASSUMPTION. SO… How can we fix this? If YOU have been going to Church and the Holy Spirit is not WEANING you off of SIN yet “LEAVE THE CHURCH” These people will not be there to vouch for you when you stand before GOD Jesus Christ NAKED and a STRANGER to Him. I want to read to you PETER 1 4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? You must understand GOD KING JESUS is a Holy DEITY if you stand before him covered in all the sins you’ve done in your life AND not having the Holy Spirit, your SOUL will be in DANGER! STAY HOME and PRAY daily, hourly and without ceasing until the Lord Jesus MANIFEST to you. If you want to know if what I am telling you is truth don’t go to MAN or ANOTHER HUMAN—GO direct to Jesus in prayer and he will tell you Himself.
If it suddenly started raining fire where would you take refuge? Under a rock perhaps? Or maybe in a huge building down deep near the foundations? Almighty God Jesus Christ will be returning very soon not only to bound the devil and free Gods people but also to judge those who don’t want to wake from the dream of SIN. The Lord has awakened many people during this time to warn of his coming; so here is a warning from Jesus Christ 1st Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, REPENT STOP SINNING the Kingdom is at Hand! REPENT STOP SINNING the Kingdom is at Hand! Saint Mark 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Our Lord and savior Jesus Christ is warning you at this moment, soon warnings will be replaced with the fulfillment of prophecy from the Holy Bible and if you haven’t changed your life and given it to Christ....
