- Revelation 22:18-19 RSV — I warn every one who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if any one ADDS to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if any one TAKES AWAY from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
It's common sense. All scripture is NOT inspired by God, it's written and translated by man. God reveals scripture to those who truly GO TO HIM in love with NOTHING TO GAIN... for any who want truth, no matter what the cost. For those whose PRIDE does not get in the way of understanding. They DON'T GET PAID, and they give freely from the heart. The scriptures inspired by God are secretly revealed by the Spirit, as mentioned in the following verses.
- Luke 8:10 RSV — he said, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
- 1 Corinthians 2:7, 10 ASV — but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, even the wisdom that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: — God has revealed to us👉 through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.
- Did you ever stop to think that is why the Beroean Jews examined the scriptures?
- Acts 17:11 RSV — Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessaloni'ca, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the scriptures daily 👉to see if these things were so.
- Why is this so important?
- 2 Corinthians 13:5 RSV — Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--👉unless indeed you fail to meet the test!
- Ephesians 4:14 RSV — so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles.
- What's a perfect example of this?
- Jeremiah 23:26-27 ASV — How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart? that think to cause my people to 👉forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgat my name for Baal.
- Whose name is it referring to?
- Jeremiah 23:29 ASV — Is not my word like fire? saith 👉 Jehovah; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
- Would you know this by reading the following verse from this version of the Bible?
- Did God inspire MAN to remove his name?
- If so, where's the verse?
- Jeremiah 23:29 RSV — Is not my word like fire, says the 👉 LORD, and like a hammer which breaks the rock in pieces?
- Is LORD God's name?
- Did he lie when he inspired this verse?
- Exodus 3:15 ASV — And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, JEHOVAH, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is MY NAME FOREVER, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
Yet, you won't find God's name in MOST "accepted" newer translations, even the newer translations of the ASV have removed it. It's the preferred choice of the Church, it's what they use to teach. That's why you RARELY hear of the Father being spoken of in the churches. Scripture has been manipulated and TWISTED to fit the narrative, a false narrative. That narrative has been sold and most of you have bought into it.
- Is it any wonder why many are so confused?
- Why many believe Jesus is Jehovah, the Almighty?
- Doesn't it make you wonder why translators continue to remove something of GREAT IMPORTANCE, like God's name?
- Do they have a verse to prove they should remove it?
- Doesn't it bother you?
- If not, why?
- If so, why read a translation without it?
- Why preach using verses without it?
If you are preaching using verses without God's name in scripture, you are NOT preaching for God, you are preaching a FALSE narrative of scripture. Most of you have been warned about this, but you do it anyway.
God's name is Jehovah, not LORD. He is ONE. He works by the Spirit; it is THROUGH Jesus that he is revealed.
- Deuteronomy 6:4 ASV — Hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is ONE JEHOVAH:
- Matthew 11:27 RSV — All things have been delivered to me 👉by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
- Romans 12:2 RSV — Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Here's another example of deception, among countless, when it comes to religion. Ask yourself this simple but very important question...
- Was Jesus born on December 25?
- Is it 👉deceiving to use that date for his birth if you know it's NOT TRUE?
- Do many believe it?
- Who practices this?
I've heard every excuse in the book as to why you do it, regardless... it does not change that people are DECEIVED by it. I have no problem going to church to hear the story of Christ and his birth, because it's a beautiful story, but I will NEVER practice what's attached to it, because it's starts on a 👉 FALSE PRETENSE... 👉a LIE ~ DECEPTION, and you the Church do a great job of selling it.
The above is just a small example of how deceived believers are. EVERY RELIGION in the WORLD is guilty of it, in one form or another... the Bible calls it "precepts of men".
- Matthew 15:8-9 RSV — 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.'"
The church (religion) has been deceived and deceives so many. They've dipped their hands into the Bible from the start. It's why many think it's okay to use the Bible as a weapon, to argue with others who believe in it or who don't. It's why the church (religion) is so DIVIDED.
Most, if not all, have ALLOWED yourselves to be taught by scripture that kills, to be taught by the spirit of error... a false God. You make it about YOU and what you want to accept, instead of what SHOULD be accepted. That's pride and exaltation, it's not receiving the righteousness of Christ, it's self-righteousness.
- Acts 7:51 RSV — "You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you.
- Who was Jesus on earth?
- God or a man?
- Romans 1:22-23 RSV — Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man or birds or animals or reptiles.
- 1 Timothy 2:5 RSV — For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the 👉man Christ Jesus,
Hence why Jesus always warned about the religious leaders and scribes who were WELL VERSED in scripture yet did not understand.
- Matthew 16:11 ASV — How is it that ye do not perceive that I spake not to you concerning bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
- Matthew 23:23 RSV — "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law, justice and mercy and faith; these you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.
Many of you take your perception of scripture as truth... never realizing if you do ANYTHING in an unloving way, then justify it in your mind by using scripture, you are actually following the false God... and the Bible itself that has become your God (idolatry) because you follow 👉IT and not the TRUE GOD.
Most of my life, I've known this to be true from those who say they believe in God, but never understood it...hypocritical to say the least.
- How can so many study the scriptures, say they believe in it, yet not see what they do is wrong?
- Why do they justify their behavior and act as if it's from God?
- Don't they see how hypocritical it is to say one thing and do another?
- Don't they see how pointing the finger at another is bad, don't they have a mirror?
- Don't they see that soft shunning in any way is just as bad as shunning?
- Ecclesiastes 5:1 ASV — Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God; for to draw nigh to hear is better than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they know not that they do evil.
The TRUE HOUSE of GOD is his WORD... it's not a building AND it's revealed by the SPIRIT, not man. If you do not have the Spirit in you, you WILL NOT understand.
- 1 Corinthians 2:13 RSV — And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths 👉to those who possess the Spirit.
- Some will get it, but MOST WILL NOT. (Many called, few chosen. - Matt 22:14)
I'm taught by God, not man...
- 1 John 2:26-27 RSV — I write this to you about those who would deceive you; but the anointing which you received from him abides in you, and you have 👉no need that any one should teach you; as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as it has taught you, abide in him.
Most continue teaching and following a God I don't recognize in scripture. It's taken me a long time to understand this (up to 50 years of age), but the TRUE GOD has since revealed it to me... he's now helped me to understand it.
- Psalm 119:104-106;108-110 ASV — Through thy precepts I get understanding: Therefore I hate every false way. NUN. 👉Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, And light unto my path. I have sworn, and have confirmed it, That I will observe thy righteous ordinances... Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill-offerings of my mouth, 👉O Jehovah, And teach me thine ordinances. My soul is continually in my hand; Yet do I not forget thy law. The wicked have laid a snare for me; Yet have I not gone astray from thy precepts.
If someone comes to you in a loving way and tries to reveal things to you in scripture, do not think YOU are above them, that YOUR knowledge supersedes theirs. God will use ANYONE to teach you, it can be a "believer" or not. There is ALWAYS a lesson to be learned. I'm still learning. If you turn your back on them, you've turned your back on God and have become EXALTED with your own understanding.
Loving your neighbor means just that, love your neighbor. Don't do it because they believe like you or because you have something to gain, do it out of genuine care and want.
Be TRUE and lead by example, helping others to do the same. Religion is the reason why my twins stay away from God and the Bible. They see you (religion) as the example and don't like it. That in itself says a lot. I understand this all too well, because I lived it myself.
RELIGIONS are hypocritical and false to its power...
That's why you're so divided.
I've said this before, I know atheists who have more faith in God then you the "believer" (let that sink in), because they try to live a life of love and kindness as best as they can, giving back often...never doing it for a reward but out of true want. God is love. If you want to teach anything, teach that, not by your words, but by your actions... by practicing it yourself.
Most of you reveal your TRUE SELF when protecting what you believe because you follow a Bible (idolatry), not God's Spirit. That's why your faith cannot come before LOVE. (1 Cor 13:2) God sends people to you for a reason, unfortunately you think your understanding is above theirs.
I've heard it said that you need to rely on a religion with solid foundations (most believe this of themselves) and I strongly disagree: No man-made church has a solid foundation... NONE. The only ones who believe this are the very ones that think you should be relying on man, on them and others like them.
These may not see it in themselves, but they are exalted...
- Revelation 3:17 RSV — For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing; not knowing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.
As I said before "soft" shunning (keeping one quiet), is still shunning, what's sad is that you THINK you are nice about it, and that your behavior is acceptable to God. I see many "believers" do it on social media, I've seen it happen to people I know and don't know, and it happens to me quite often...all church leaders have done it (been to many denominations), countless Bible studies and in social media groups. It's all about you and what you believe.
It's not a Bible study if all must agree with you, that's conformity, tickling of ears and SELFISH. That's thinking you have the answers...that's what cults do, that's what religion does. You've become complacent and stopped knocking, making it about you and your understanding, as you continue to follow the letter (scripture) that kills...a false God. (2 Cor 3:6)
- Galatians 5:13-14 RSV — For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but THROUGH LOVE be servants of one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, 👉"You shall love your neighbor as yourself."👈
You KNOW NOT the scriptures...
- 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 RSV — Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling to meet him, we beg you, brethren, not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Let 👉 NO ONE DECIEVE YOU 👉in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
TRUST NO ONE... this is clear in scripture.
You should not listen to ANY who tell you to go to them.
Isaiah 48:5 RSV —
I declared them to you from of old, before they came to pass
I announced them to you, lest you should say,
'My idol did them, my graven image and my molten image commanded them.'
Be aware of any teaching you to rely on MAN... the church (religion). Those who think they are well versed in scripture and believe the lies they sell.
- 2 Corinthians 11:13-14 RSV — For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
Here's another PERFECT example of CHURCH DECEPTION...
The church teaches you to partake in the body and blood of Christ, but what you should be doing is examining yourself first, testing yourself, to see if you are worthy of it. Something most churches DON'T TEACH you to do.
If you are doing things in your life that you KNOW you shouldn't be doing... you shouldn't eat the bread and drink the cup, it's that simple. Don't take my word for it, there's a very important verse these churches never mention during communion.
You should be asking...
- 1 Corinthians 11:27 RSV — Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner 👉will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord.
- James 3:1 ASV — Be not many of you teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment.
- How does one partake in an unworthy manner?
- Proverbs 6:17-19 ASV — Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood; A heart that deviseth wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief, A false witness that uttereth lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren.
- haughty eyes
- lying tongue
- shedding innocent blood
- wicked heart
- mischievous
- false witness ~ liar
- sowing discord 👈 (Religion - division)
- Colossians 3:5, 8-9 RSV — Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. — But now put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and foul talk from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices.
- fornication
- impurity
- passion
- evil desire
- covetousness (yearn to possess or have)
- anger
- malice
- slander (talking about others in a negative way - gossip)
- foul language (cursing)
- lying
True love (faith) will avoid all of the above... no one is perfect, but you TRULY can do your best to avoid it, and yes, it can be done. If you find you still need help in any of those areas, simply pray to the Father (Prov 3:5,6) the God of Lord Jesus (Eph 1:17) with a genuine want and he will guide you.
Don't be foolish and avoid the churches who request that you partake with them...most of you don't have true understanding of what you are doing. They're luring you in with wonderful words then deceiving you... most of you, paying them to do it. (Rev 16:13,14)
- Revelation 18:7-8 RSV — As she glorified herself and played the wanton, so give her a like measure of torment and mourning. Since in her heart she says, 'A queen I sit, I am no widow, mourning I shall never see,' so shall her plagues come in a single day, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she shall be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."
God's gift is free...
- How does one partake in a worthy manner?
- Galatians 5:22-25 RSV — But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 👉If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
- love
- joy
- peace
- patience
- kindness
- goodness
- faithfulness
- gentleness
- self-control 👈
Please stop letting the church (harlot) deceive you... you've been seduced by her teachings, by her sorcery, she's false. Babylon is all Religion, and it will fall. (Rev 18:4, 23; 19:2)
Rely on the Father with a genuine heart, through Jesus he will be revealed to you, or keep relying on man paid by Caesar (money/government) to deceive you... freewill.
Proverbs 3:5-6 ASV —
Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding: In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths.
When I go to a Church it's not to be taught, I go there to edify as many as I can regardless of who they are, I judge no one by what they believe and the God they follow and love all, in or out of the church, and PRAY they see the error of their way. If you've been deceived by the church the fault is yours, because you relied on Religion to guide you, instead of God.
The Bible is clear on this, keep it holy or God will NOT be in you. (1 Cor 3:16, 17)
- Acts 7:48, 49 RSV — Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made with hands; as the prophet says, 'Heaven is my throne, and earth my footstool. What house will you build for me, says the Lord, or what is the place of my rest?
- Isaiah 66:1-3 ASV — Thus saith 👉 Jehovah, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what manner of house will ye build unto me? and what place shall be my rest? For all these things hath my hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith 👉Jehovah: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my word. ...Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations:
This is the One True God that Jesus spoke of (John 17:1-3), that YOU ignore...
- Isaiah 6:3 ASV — And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is 👉Jehovah of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
- Revelation 4:8 RSV — And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all round and within, and day and night they never cease to sing, "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!"
Start learning to love one another. STOP making it about religion, use the money to help the needy, not YOURSELVES, as a form of income to TEACH. God's gift is FREE. Start making it about humans, ALL PEOPLE... all are in this together, all are in need, and all are sinners. Be the better person because you want to, not because you have to.
- Luke 17:10 - AMP So you too, when you have done everything that was assigned and commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants [undeserving of praise or a reward, for we 👉HAVE NOT GONE beyond our obligation]; we have merely done what we ought to do.’”
I don't need a Bible to show me who the One True God is because HE is with me. It's been revealed to me through the Spirit, through Christ. I don't need you (religion/man) to confirm it for me.
- Matthew 11:25 RSV — At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes;
May the Father (Jehovah) through Christ bring you...
~ Peace, Love and Joy ~
