THE LAST AGE 2

He who is not called will never understand...I have always told my students that, many will keep running from leadership, while it is chasing after them. However, some will keep chasing after leadership, while it keeps running away from them. LEADERSHIP IS DIFFICULT! When it is about service to GOD...

√ You will sacrifice time to be with your family to be in church.

√ You will need to be strong to preach to others that they will be fine even when things are going wrong for you.

√ You will need to be strong to preach that GOD will solve People's problems when GOD has not solved yours yet.

√ You will be betrayed by the people you helped.

√ You will be abandoned by the people who swore to never leave you.

√ You will see that people stop respecting you because they were poisoned by other people.

√ You will see fake people in front of you calling you father and disrespecting you behind your back.

√ Some people will misinterpret your preaching thinking it was indirect.

√ You will see people who disrespect your wife and your family.

√ You will see people questioning the origin of your goods, claiming that you are deviating deeply from the church.

√ Some people when leaving church will make up a story about you.

√ Some people you give opportunities to will confront your vision.

√ Some people you trained will want to confront you in meetings.

√ Some people you taught to preach will later want to compare your preaching to theirs.

√ Some people will think you're distracted and that you've lost focus.

√ Some people will think they are more spiritual and have more knowledge than you.

√ Some people will want to negatively influence other people regarding your personality.

√ Others will be ungrateful and will not recognize the opportunities you gave them.

√ Some will want to divide the church.

√ Some will disrespect you, to create confusion.

But just know where you belong and why you there!

THE LAST AGE 1

An age could be defined as ''the length of time that a person has lived or a thing has existed''. And/or ''a distinct period of history''.
Just yesterday, JESUS was opening my eyes to a latent (hidden) Truth; HE said, ''boy, people who are named after my identity MUST be told and cautioned, to protect EVERYTHING that is linked or connected to MY body (the church of CHRIST)...this surely includes the congregation''.

You see, whatever is related to the 'Church', in relation to our LORD JESUS, represents GOD MOST HIGH here on Earth. And do not forget that, the Church, is the BRIDE of the LAMB. As soon as you begin to regard the BODY of CHRIST, as you would JESUS HIMSELF, your intimacy with JEHOVAH, relationship with the HOLY SPIRIT, I mean fellowship with the GODHEAD abruptly improves and grows into passion and zeal for the kingdom of GOD and HIS dear SON.

The other day, I met a friend who told me he ONLY comes to 'church', to meet up with ladies he could have carnal relationship with. By doing so, are you knitting the broken pieces of the BODY of CHRIST or tearing it further??? If what you do in/for the LORD in the 'church' is not 'profitable' just change the approach and ''learn to do well''.

We have pushed GOD out of the classroom and the courtroom. We have pushed aside HIS standards that HE has given as protection and have rewritten our own history.

∆ Now our country is reaping the inevitable results:
∆ The family is under increasing attack,
∆ We have a failing education system,
∆ Rampant violent crime fills our streets, and
∆ Sexual perversion is being flaunted and pushed upon us.

Such is the peril of failing to worship GOD. What Happens When We Fail to Worship GOD?

Worship—or the failure to do it properly—affects every aspect of our lives. Romans 1:20–25 points out four steps that lead to spiritual deterioration:

¶ Failing to glorify GOD

¶ Failing to give thanks

¶ Turning to other gods

¶ Degenerate living

This is the basic expression of the root sin of pride, which is at the core of man’s fallen state. While this may not seem like a serious sin to you, it is to GOD. When there is a breakdown here, other problems follow.
It was a failure to glorify GOD that resulted in idolatry and immoral living for King Belshazzar. The prophet Daniel came to him with this reproof:

“And you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of Heaven. They have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways, you have not glorified” (Daniel 5:23).

Scripture continually encourages believers to glorify GOD.
Psalm 29:1–2 (NIV) says, “Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name.”

Glorifying GOD with our lives is not something we should take lightly.

Many cling to the teachings of New Age types of religions, because they basically accommodate their lifestyle. Others embrace evolution, because if GOD did not create the earth, then they are not accountable to HIM. But the biblical account of creation and the theory of evolution are not compatible.
All those who direct their innate desire to worship toward something or someone other than the CREATOR Himself, will ultimately be disappointed.

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them” (Romans 1:28–32).

Failing to glorify GOD and give thanks not only leads to idolatry, but to degenerate living. It begins with unthankfulness and indifference and results in the lowering of our standards. This radical downward trend begins in the realm of our thinking. So we can really trace our problems in our personal lives, society, and our country to a failure to worship the true GOD.

The passivity of many Believers is due to a misunderstanding of the Truth of "dying with CHRIST." The apostle said, "I am crucified with CHRIST; and it is no longer I who live, but it is CHRIST who lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith in the Son of GOD" (Galatians 2:20).
Based on this, Believers assume that the highest spiritual life is "no longer I." They assume that they should lose their personality, that they should have no more will and self-power, and that their "I" should die completely. Thus they become a machine to obey GOD. They think that they should not have any more feelings, that they should annihilate their personality, and that they should annul all the desires, interests, and preferences of life. They become like a co**se.

Henceforth, there are no more "I"s; their "persons" are all gone. They think this kind of commandment requires them to efface themselves, destroy themselves, and "commit su***de" to the point that they do not have any feeling about themselves or their need, situation, sensation, desire, environment, state, comfort, affliction, etc., so that they only sense GOD'S operation, working, and moving.
They assume that dying to oneself means having no more self-consciousness. Therefore, they hand their "self-consciousness" over to death and try to die to the point that they do not feel anything but the presence of GOD. They realize that death must be fulfilled. Therefore, every time they have self-consciousness, they single-mindedly put themselves to death. Every time they sense that they have a desire, lack, need, interest, or feeling, they single-mindedly deal with it and put it to death.

The SPIRIT of the LORD; of wisdom; of understanding; of counsel; of might; of knowledge and of the fear of GOD, are all dimensions of the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD.
Every saint that possesses the influence of the 7-fold HOLY SPIRIT, will be able to withstand the beasts of every age, and their destructive mechanism.

The Good news is that, the LAMB of GOD was slain before time, before any beast will ever emerge, and this LAMB came to destroy the works of Satan.
The beasts from the visions of Daniel and John, the beloved apostle of JESUS are humans, yet we have the sent horns, which have eye in our favor. The ministry of the 7-fold HOLY SPIRIT must be honored and harnessed. Certain people had knowledge about the 7-fold HOLY SPIRIT, they didn't know much like now, but they seized every moment with awe.

As long as the Believer is not deeply united with the LORD, GOD is not satisfied. The purpose of GOD'S salvation is to have the saved ones in complete union with HIS will. In order for GOD to bring us to this point, HE has to use the environment; HE causes us to encounter many frustrations. HE causes us to be heartbroken, distressed, and afflicted. HE causes many practical crosses to come upon us. Through these things, HE causes us to bow our head in submission. Our will is very strong, and unless it is hit by GOD in many ways, it will not submit to GOD.

If we are willing to come under the mighty hand of GOD and accept HIS discipline, the will which occupies our life will experience a cutting work again and again and will be delivered to death again and again. If we resist GOD, heavier afflictions will come upon us and subdue us.
GOD wants to strip us of everything. After Believers are truly regenerated, they all have one thought --to do GOD'S will. Some openly make this kind of promise, and some hold this intent in secret. GOD will prove whether such a promise (or intent) is true or not. HE causes Believers to pass through a stripping that they do not like. HE causes them to lose material things, health, fame, position, and usefulness. HE eventually causes them to lose the happiness and zeal in their feeling, as well as HIS presence and sympathy. HE will bring the Believers to the point where everything other than HIS will is expendable to them.
HE wants them to realize that as long as something is according to HIS will, they should receive it, even though they may suffer physically or in their feelings. If GOD delights in afflicting them, stripping them of everything, taking away their "spiritual usefulness," or causing them to become dry, dark, and lonely, they should accept it willingly. GOD wants Believers to realize that HE saved them, not for the purpose that they would enjoy anything, but for HIS will.

The cross does not annihilate the "I." It will exist forever. Even after going to heaven, there will still be "I." What meaning is there to salvation if someone can substitute for "me" to go to heaven? The meaning of accepting CHRIST'S death is to die to sin and hand over our soul-life to death. Even the best, the noblest, and the cleanest have to be handed over to death.
We have spoken about this many times before. GOD wants us to reject the heart that lives by our natural life; HE wants us to live by HIM and absorb HIS life moment by moment so that our whole being is supplied its needs. HE does not intend to annihilate the various functions of our being, nor does HE want our entire being to fall into passivity. On the contrary, the Christian life requires us to daily, single-mindedly, actively, and trustingly exercise our will to deny our natural life and draw on GOD'S spiritual life. Just as the death of man’s body is not an annihilation, and death in the lake of fire is not an annihilation, crucifixion with CHRIST in the spiritual life is not an annihilation. Man’s person should exist, and the representative of man’s person—his will—also should exist. Only the natural life by which man lives should die. This is the teaching of the Bible.

Unless man receives GOD'S new life and serves GOD in this new life, his activities are of the flesh no matter how he serves. Even if he has the intention to work for GOD and suffer for GOD, it is altogether vain. If man is not saved, his will may aspire for the high things; it may be toward good and toward GOD, but it is still useless because in GOD'S eyes it is not a matter of how the fallen will wants to work for HIM, but a matter of how HE wants man to work for HIM.
Man may initiate and prepare many good works; he may think that this is serving GOD, but if the works are not initiated and carried out by GOD, man is just worshipping his own will!

The same is true in the matter of salvation. While man is in his flesh, even if he wants to be saved and have eternal life, this will cannot please GOD.
"But as many as received HIM, to them HE gave the authority to become children of GOD..who were begotten not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of GOD (John 1:12-13).
Even if man wants to be saved, he cannot make himself saved. The idea of wanting to be saved must come from GOD. Believers think that there is nothing better than a man who is trying to be saved, seek the way of life, and be a good disciple of CHRIST. But GOD tells us that in the matter of regeneration and in everything relating to GOD, man’s will is useless.

I pray for today, as Always...

You will not labor in vain, thinking you are pleasing GOD, in the name of JESUS!

Mercy will speak for you, Grace will stand for you and Favor will surround you, in the name of JESUS!

Rejoice, you are beloved of the LORD!

LITERAL CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE 10

Besides revealing the Truth directly to us, GOD often (in fact most of the time) conveys the Truth to us through HIS other children. This kind of Truth is first accepted by our mind, and then it reaches our SPIRIT. We use our mind to contact the speeches and writings of others.
If we don't have a mind, it would be impossible for the Truth to reach our life. Therefore, an opened mind is very crucial to our spiritual life. If our mind is fully occupied with opinions, whether they are about the Truth or about the person who preaches the Truth, there will be no way for the Truth to enter into our mind or life. If believers have determined beforehand what kind of teaching they are going to read or listen to, it is no wonder that they do not get much help.

Believers have to know the process through which the Truth is translated into life before they see the importance of an opened mind. The Truth is first realized in our mind, then it enters into our spirit and touches our spirit. Finally, it is manifested in our living. A closed mind hinders the Truth from reaching the spirit. A closed mind means a mind occupied with opinions. Whatever disagrees with its thoughts is opposed and criticized. Its opinion becomes the standard for all Truth. Anything that does not agree with its concept is not regarded as the Truth. This kind of mind gives no chance for many of GOD'S truths to come in. As a result, the Believers cannot help but suffer loss in the matter of life.

Experienced Believers can all testify to the importance of an opened mind with regard to the revelation of the Truth. Many times we do not have understanding because we do not have an opened mind, not because the Truth is not preached to us. Sometimes GOD has to wait for many years before HE can cause us to remove all the hindrances and deposit the Truth.

LITERAL CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE 9

Now let us sum up the stages from being passive to being freed:

(1) The mind of the Believer is originally normal.

(2) The Believer falls into passivity by trying to let GOD use his mind.

(3) The Believer believes that because of stage two, he now has a new mind.

(4) Actually the Believer is attacked by evil spirits and falls below the normal condition.

(5) The Believer’s mind becomes weak and powerless.

(6) The Believer fights to regain the ground that he gave up in stage two.

(7) The Believer’s mind seems to be worse and more confused than before.

(8) Actually the Believer is gradually being freed.

(9) The Believer insists on his own sovereignty and regains the position that was passive.

(10) The passivity is overthrown, and the Believer is recovered to his original condition.

(11) The Believer holds fast to his will and is maintained in a normal condition; in addition,

(12) His mind is being fully renewed, and he is able to do in his work what he could not do before.

We should know that the renewed mind is deeper than the liberated mind. To regain the ground lost to passivity and the ground given to the lies will merely restore the Believer to his original condition. However, renewing not only restores one to his original condition, but brings him to a place that is higher than the "point of origin." The renewed mind is a state that the Believer’s mind has never reached before in his lifetime; it is the highest point which GOD has designated for him and the highest point possible. GOD not only wants the believer’s mind to be completely severed from the authority of darkness, in order for the believer to be completely autonomous, He also wants to renew his mind.

LITERAL CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE 8

After a Believer’s mind has fallen into passivity and been occupied by evil spirits, he will never listen to the explanation or evidence of others in any matter in which he has already made a decision. If others try to explain something more to him, he will think that they are invading his freedom. Furthermore, in his view, the one who is telling him something is very foolish and can never understand what he understands. His thoughts may be extremely wrong, but he thinks that he has reasons that cannot be explained. Since his mind has become completely passive, he does not know how to use his own reasoning to deduce, differentiate, or judge anymore. Instead, he indiscriminately takes in every thought that evil spirits inject into him, and considers them to be the most perfect thoughts.

He may also hear supernatural voices and consider them to be the will of GOD. In his view, these voices are speaking laws to him, and no one can make him use his reasoning to check the source of these voices. If he has received any thoughts, voices, or teachings, he will think that he can never be mistaken and is absolutely secure. He will not want to test, check, consider, or reason again. He will become absolutely closed and defensive, and he will not want to know about anything else. Neither his own reason and conscience nor the explanations and theories of others can change him at all. Once he believes that GOD is leading him, it is as if his brain becomes sealed by a tight seal and cannot be changed again. Since he does not use his own reasoning, he is subject to any deception by evil spirits and is completely ignorant of it himself. Those with only a little understanding will know his danger, yet he himself will be quite content. People who have been worked on by evil spirits.
