Signs of the times prophetic word for the new year 2017 that is NOT ear tickling or flesh patting:
Did I not warn that in end times people would not endure sound doctrine? Did I not warn that they would heap upon themselves teachers to tickle their ears and pat their flesh? Did I not warn that wolves would enter into the sheepfold in sheep’s clothing to get fat off the flock? Did I not warn that false teachers would make merchandise of My bride? All this I knew, but I am not wringing my hands in worry! How BIG am I? Did I not also say that I have a remnant still in the land? Did I not say that the gates of hell would not prevail against my church? Did I not say the judgment starts in MY house? Did I not say that I will remove all who offend Me out of MY kingdom before I snatch away my bride? Did I not say that I would bring upon those heretics and merchandisers swift destruction? Did I not say the enemy has sown tares in the wheat, which I allow to remain until the time of harvest? Did I not say that I will send the former, middle and latter rain and send my laborers out into the field to reap what my rain has watered? Why do you think I warned of all these things? So you would not fret and be deceived, but pray and pick up your sickle to enter the harvest field. Everything that can be shaken will be shaken until all that remains is of Me. You can tell the harvest field is maturing for a harvest because the distinction between a wheat and tares are becoming more obvious. The tares stretch high toward the sun, while wheat in maturity bow down. I have already sent this word and I will accomplish that which I said. Be still and see the salvation of your Lord. You are about to see greater works as I send my laborers forth into the harvest field. You just pick up your sickle and do as I command and watch what great and glorious things I will do because I am faithful and I do watch over my word to perform it says The Lord.
I have a remnant still in the land. Did I not say that the gates of hell would not prevail against my church ? Did I not say the judgment starts in MY house ? Did I not say that I will remove all who offend me out of MY kingdom before I sweep aware my bride? Did I not say that I would bring upon those heretics and merchandisers swift destruction? Did I not say the enemy has sown tares in the wheat, which I allow to remain until the time of harvest? Did I not say that I will send the former, middle and latter rain and send my laborers out into the field to reap what my rain has watered? Why do you think I warned of all these things? So you would not fret, but pray and pick up your sickle to enter the harvest field. Everything that can be shaken will be shaken until all that remains is of Me. You can tell the harvest field is maturing for a harvest because the distinction between a wheat and tare are becoming more obvious. The tares stretch high toward the sun, while wheat in maturity bow down. I have already sent this word and I will accomplish that which I said. Be still and see the salvation of your Lord. You are about to see greater works as I send my laborers forth into the harvest field. You just pick up your sickle and do as I command and watch what great and glorious things I will do because I am faithful and I do watch over my word to perform it says The Lord.
I have been getting such strong things from The Lord lately such as the prophecy He gave me regarding the latter rain above. I started researching things in the prophecy. One was wheat and tares. Wheat and tares look alike until they mature. It is hard to tell them apart. The tare is called a Darnel which is a weed, whose roots get entangled with the roots of other nearby plants so if you pluck up a Darnel you would harm nearby wheat. As the plants mature, that is where they can be distinguished. A Darnel will reach for the sun and stars, stretch the top parts to race the other nearby plants for the most sunlight. Their top ends grow straight up. A wheat becomes so heavy with the weight of its seed, that will die and be cast on good ground, that it bows down low to the earth making it easier for the seed to be sown on good soil. A Darnel races for noteriety and fame, prosperity, and towering above others, while its roots wrap around true wheat to strangle them out. At the time of maturity, Darnel are easily plucked, because the roots wither in order to sustain stretching for the sun in a selfish race to be seen of man and be held in high esteem. That is why they are plucked first so a real harvest can take place. Praise God! Tares or Darnel get thrown into the fire. These Darnel said their little salvation prayer, believe they are saved and are in the church.
Another thing The Lord keeps speaking to me is how big He is and Him being I AM. I think He has more to say on that later.
Holman’s Bible Dictionary defines TARES as follows: “TARES KJV term for grassy weeds resembling wheat, generally identified as darnel (genus Lolium)”
It is pretty much accepted today that the tares Jesus spoke of are darnel of the genus Lolium. Cephalaria syriaca is also a possibility mentioned by some researchers, but based on archeological studies, its evident lack in Biblical times would seem to indicate it is not the tare of the Bible. Secular dictionaries also define the tare as most likely being darnel:
“Darnel is a weed grass (probably bearded darnel or Lolium temulentum) that looks very much like wheat until it is mature, when the seeds reveal a great difference. Darnel seeds aren’t good for much except as chicken feed or to burn to prevent the spread of this weed” (World English Dictionary).
Easton’s Bible Dictionary describes “tares” as follows: “the bearded darnel, mentioned only in Matt. 13:25-30. It is the Lolium temulentum, a species of rye-grass, the seeds of which are a strong soporific poison. It bears the closest resemblance to wheat till the ear appears, and only then the difference is discovered. It grows plentifully in Syria and Palestine.”
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition 2000 defines “soporific: as:
ADJECTIVE: 1. Inducing or tending to induce sleep. 2. Drowsy.
NOUN: A drug or other substance that induces sleep; a hypnotic.
Smith’s Bible Dictionary offers these comments on the “tares”: “There can be little doubt that the zizania of the parable, #Mt 13:25 denotes the weed called “darnel” (Lolium temulentum). . . . The grains of the L. temulentum, if eaten, produce convulsions, and even death.”
A very interesting note I found on Botanical.com concerning darnel was this:
“The admixture of the grain with those of the nutritious cereals amongst which it is often found growing should be guarded against, as its properties are generally regarded as deleterious. Gerard tells us: ‘the new bread wherein Darnel is eaten hot causeth drunkenness.’ When Darnel has been given medicinally in a harmful quantity, it is recorded to have produced all the symptoms of drunkenness: a general trembling, followed by inability to walk, hindered speech and vomiting. For this reason the French call Darnel: ‘Ivraie,’ from Ivre (drunkenness); the word Darnel is itself of French origin and testifies to its intoxicating qualities, being derived from an old French word Darne, signifying stupefied. The ancients supposed it to cause blindness, hence with the Romans, lolio victitare, to live on Darnel, was a phrase applied to a dim-sighted person. So tares in the church will be spiritually blind and lacking in discernment.
“The alleged poisonous properties of Darnel are now generally believed to be due to a fungus”
Recapping the symptoms in the various definitions above concerning darnel and/or its fungus, they are:
- Sleepiness, drowsiness
2. Hypnotic episodes, bewitching
3. Convulsions
4. Drunkenness, intoxication
5. Trembling
6. Inability to walk
7. Hindered speech
8. Vomiting
9. Stupification
10. Dim-sightedness
Other sites I visited include giddiness, apathy and various abnormal sensations as effects of darnel.
Sounds a lot like that drunken stupor and laughter I have seen in churches or prayer groups. Now we know!
You cannot serve god and mammon. you will love one and hate the other. choose this day who you will serve. |
In the early days of “the move of God,” we saw all of these things and they are still happening today. Not only is there darnel in the Church, the darnel has apparently been affected by fungus. Not only that, but one must wonder how many cases of spiritual blindness and spiritual death have occurred or caused people to fall away from the true faith or truth of the gospel. God will judge these teachers for this and the blood of these people will be on their hands.
Some say darnel in itself is not harmful, often being used for hay for livestock. They say that it’s when the parasite fungus takes up residence within the seed head that it becomes deadly in the physical realm. But, in Jesus’ parable, the analogy does not hold water. Spiritually, darnel has the destiny of being cast into the fire. Wheat is to be gathered into the barn. It may not appear that spiritual darnel is that dangerous, but when one looks at the end result, it is deadly:
The bible says: Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
There is a time to distinguish between darnel and wheat. The fruit of the darnel is smaller than the fruit produced by true wheat. They say the difference is very distinguishable and obvious, and the difference in the sizes of the seeds makes separating them an easy task. There are those who have convulsed, been made drunk, trembled uncontrollably, stammered in their speech, were stupified, turned giddy, etc., who have tried to tell us that that was wheat. This drunken laughter and behavior in the church comes from this counterfeit weed. This I know for sure: The One who planted the good seed which bears good fruit will come back to harvest His wheat, and not one grain of darnel will be found in the barn. No matter how sincere the darnel may appear, darnel is still not the real and it is a fake. You can be sincere in loving people and God and be sincerely deceived.
As the end time harvest approaches, you will be able to distinguish between tares and wheat as they will no longer resemble each other, which is a sign that we are truly near to the sons of perdition being revealed, the mystery of iniquity being revealed and the gathering up of the tares to be burned. When something is a mystery, that means it is not known. When it is revealed, it means it is no longer a mystery unless you are strongly deluded and don’t want the truth. God is a righteous God and does not bring judgment without a warning and giving people a time to repent.
This year is the appointed time. 5777 is the Jewish year we live in. Five is the number for grace. God will supply that which is needed is the interpretation of the number five. It also means divine oracle, messenger or mouthpiece. Seven is the number of perfection or completion. God’s grace will complete or bring to perfection that which concerns Him, His church and His word. Thus the three seven’s. He will send angels, translated messengers, to gather out of His kingdom, all who offend and all workers of iniquity. John the Baptist was referred to by this term angel or messenger and he was human and born of a woman. The bible also says that Jesus will fight with these phonies with the sword of His mouth, thus He will have His messengers He speaks through so don’t expect comforting, flesh patting, ear tickling words. Expect fighting words my friend and the sword of the spirit is the word of God used in this battle. There are those who want to pick and choose what words they want to listen to in the bible and have doctrine built around those words while they ignore or explain away those words they don’t want to hear. It is those very words that they don’t want to hear that have the power to save them if they would have ears to hear and repent. God will send these messengers to cause them to repent and if they do not, swift destruction comes and God has already spoken it. He will perform that which He has spoken.
The Gospel is to be told, not sold! The further the church moves from the truth, the more they will hate those that speak it.
To get rich on the backs of the poor while you live in luxury is an abomination to God while you could do something and don’t. For you who know to do good and do it not, it is sin. While you live in your mansions and dress in your finest and sit on gold toilet seats while others have no clothes, food or a roof over their head is not walking in the love of God and it is evil fruit. You have fallen away from the faith, just like the son of perdition and it is a tactic of the enemy to cause you to fall away as the parables teach. The Lord tells these people the same thing He would tell the rich young ruler. Go sell everything you have, give to the poor, deny self, pick up your cross and follow Him in order to bring forth fruit worthy of repentance. If you can’t, you have an idol before Jesus and idolators and covetous people will not enter the kingdom of heaven. This was said to the church and believers, not unbelievers.
I can’t stand these hucksters on TV that pervert God’s word to get you to give money to them so you experience your “breakthrough”. Clouds they are that promise rain, but no rain comes. Spots and wrinkles in your feast is what the bible says about them. They are called sons of perdition, like Judas, who have gone the way of Balaam, who sold the people out for money. The bible says now that you know what to withhold, withhold your money from them.
Go feed the hungry but don’t give to get. Jesus blood plus your money doesn’t deliver you from the curse of the law. It was Jesus blood only and to add to the blood declares that His blood was not suffient and you are an unbeliever.
THE MYSTERY OF INIQUITY: The apostate church or a church that has fallen away from the original gospel of Christ, is something the Holy Spirit has kept silent on until the appointed or right time. That time is just before the church is snatched, caught or raptured. That is how close we are people. This son of perdition being revealed means that it was not known previously and is now being revealed and the Holy Spirit is uncovering this. It originates from the Spirit of Anti Christ. That word mystery means to keep silent on until the appointed time. The word iniquity means “you knew it was wrong and you did it anyway”. The Holy Spirit has been silent on disclosing iniquity causing one to be a son of perdition. It is all in this context in this chapter of II Thes.
This wicked sort of person will think they can do what they like even while knowing it is wrong because they are eternally secure is being given a chance to repent by tearing down this stronghold with truth in order that they might be saved. The chapter goes on to say that the Lord will consume them with the spirit of His mouth and the brightness of His coming. This is truth and light coming from the throne room of God. Anyone who practices iniquity and does what is wrong knowing it is wrong, they are clearly delusional and will hear Jesus say, “Depart from me you worker of iniquity”. I never knew you. Jesus said this theology is after the working of satan who told the same lie to Eve in the garden. The devil told Eve, “Go ahead and do that. You shall not surely die”. Nothing will happen to you! Wake up people. You are deceived! All of this being spoken to the church and believers, not the unsaved and the world.
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish, because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved. This is talking about a group of people, not one man who is the anti Christ. What were they deceived about? Their unrighteousness. They thought they were righteous in the eyes of God because of the blood of Jesus, when they were not. They believed the “grace is a license to sin” heresy because saying your little prayer makes you eternally secure. There is a ton of scripture you have to discard or explain away to believe that. Because they did not receive the truth, God sent them strong delusion so that they should believe a lie, that they might be damned, “who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. It is time to repent, be empowered, turn from sin and warn others because the appointed time is now, for such a time as this. Jesus is returning for a glorious church, without spot or wrinkle. Be wise!
SPOTS AND WRINKLES IN THE CHURCH
It is very obvious right now that we live in perilous times or end times. The message the Lord has strongly been giving me has been one of His bride being made merchandise of. When a body becomes a business, it is a prostitute. False teachers in the church have prostituted His bride, making merchandise of her by pimping their wares to people who profit off her. The house of the Lord has been made a den of thieves and instead of freely giving out what He has freely given, only those that can afford it, can purchase the tools to grow spiritually through books, DVD’s etc. What of the people who cannot afford to purchase from these teachers what Jesus has provided to them freely? I am telling you that He is very upset about this practice and the temple tables are going to be overturned and those that pimps their wares and make merchandise of His bride will be driven out lest you repent and speak out against those that won’t.
The Lord keeps bringing me to II Peter 2 and this is about believers who have known Christ and made merchandise of His bride. Especially those that misuse the feasts and other such things to get people to give to them so they can receive a special blessing or break through by giving at this special time or feast. They bewitch the people turning them back into works or giving to purchase with their money what Jesus’ blood freely provided.
II Peter 2: But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you (in the church) who privily shall bring in damnable heresies (lies that will damn you), even denying the Lord that bought them (these are believers) and bring upon themselves swift destruction. So much for eternal security. Any many shall follow their pernicious ways, by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you, of whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their DAMNATION slumbereth not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into the chains of darkness to be reserved unto judgment so shall He not spare them.
II Peter 2 goes on to say, But these as natural brute beasts made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not, and shall utterly perish in their own corruption. And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the daytime. SPOTS THEY ARE AND BLEMISHES, sporting themselves with their own deceiving while they feast with you. Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls; a heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children (of God). Which have forsaken the right way and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness. Wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever.
These people promise everything but it is never delivered. Your blessing or break through that you just purchased by giving to these false teachers never produce the promise. That is why these false teachers are clouds without rain or wells without water. It just appears that water or rain is forthcoming, and it doesn’t come as they look for the latter rain or the real thing. Jesus isn’t coming for these spots and wrinkles, but only for a glorious church without spot or wrinkle. These spots and wrinkles will be gone.
Peter goes on to say that those who are clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise people liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, then after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. (These are believers, not unsaved people, who have fallen away because of the deceitfulness of riches). But it happened unto them according to the true proverb, the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
Jesus is calling these “sons of perdition” who just like Judas, love money more than the Lord and those He purchased with His blood.
So, those of you with your multi- million dollar mansions that were acquired by making merchandise of the bride of Christ are being called to repentance because He isn’t coming for Spots, Wrinkles and Blemishes. Sell all you have, help the people in Haiti or those hungry and in need. Pick up your cross, give to the needy and follow Him. In God’s mercy, you have this window of opportunity to repent in order to be raptured because you are a son of perdition, just like Judas. You have fallen away because of the deceitfulness of riches. Just as the rich young ruler could not be saved until he sold all he had and give to the needy to follow Christ, you can be a foolish virgin who runs out of oil and be locked out when Jesus snatches away the church.
By the way, the rich young ruler did do just that, but it took the condition of his heart to be exposed because he thought he really did love the Lord with his whole heart, mind and soul and his neighbor as himself until he was given something to do to demonstrate that was true. Jesus just revealed to him that he wasn’t who he thought he was by giving him something to do to prove it. He couldn’t at that time, but with God, all things are possible. Just as Jesus looked on Him with love as he walked away sad, so the Lord does you!
This rich young ruler, by the way, ended up being Nicodemus by historians. I do a whole teaching on that, which you can find here: www.latter-rain.net\foundational_teachings-in-the-church
Excerpts: Jesus didn’t lie to the rich, young ruler. He told him straight up what he needed to do to prove he was repentant, because he truly thought he had kept all the requirements of the law since his youth and loved the Lord above all else and others as himself. When Jesus told him he had to get rid of his idol and give it to those he claimed to love as himself, it shed light on the real condition of his heart. He didn’t love the Lord above money and what it provides. Let me ask all of us something? Is there something in your life that comes before God? You spend more time in this activity then you do with the Lord. Video games, social media, money, a relationship, work, porn, pleasure or whatever. If the Lord asked you to give up something in order to even inherit eternal life, what is the thing you struggle to give up? Is it worth going to hell for or suffering the wrath of God? The good news is that when the rich young ruler went away sad, the disciples were beside themselves and said, ”Who then can be saved?” Jesus replied that with God, all things are possible, but it starts with telling the person the truth. In order to understand this, you have to realize that this rich, young ruler was a religious leader of the highest rank. It said that Jesus loved him and when you love someone, you tell them the truth. Such and such will keep you from inheriting eternal life or cause you to lose it. Give it up. The writings of Josephus, a historian, names who this rich, young ruler was. He was Nicodemus. I always thought of Nicodemus as an old man. He came to Jesus a second time asking what he needed to do to inherit eternal life. It said he came to Jesus at night because he was afraid of the Jews or other leaders and what they thought. What had changed for him to come to Jesus expecting a different answer? Jesus now told him what he needed to do and that was to be born again of water (water baptism for the remission of past sins he had repented of) and be baptized of the Holy Spirit. By now, he had sold all he had, was a closet disciple and was expecting a different answer. He was pressing in, seeking the Kingdom of God and asking the right questions. Would he have done this if Jesus hadn’t loved him enough to tell him the truth the first time. He didn’t seem to be put off the first time his heart was revealed to him when Jesus told him to sell all he had and give to the poor, even though the bible says he went away sad. At least he knows he wasn’t who he thought he was and he knew what he had to do to get what he wanted. John 3 talks about this where Nicodemus came to Jesus in the night secretly. Jesus told him, “Art thou a master of Israel and knowest not these things?” The Lord would say to us in the five-fold ministry, “Art thou a master, teacher, pastor, prophet, apostle and know not these things?” These are basic to salvation and we don’t have the basics right. We would have led this rich young ruler in a salvation prayer and pronounced him saved and eternally secure as he marched off to hell.
After the crucifixion of Jesus we have the progression in Nicodemus’spiritual journey. John 19:38 states that Joseph of Arimathea, who was Nicodemus’ best friend, and being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. This Joseph was a closet disciple of Christ’s like Nicodemus USED TO BE. Why do I say that Nicodemus used to be? Because John19:39 states that Nicodemus WHICH AT THE FIRST, came to Jesus at night. Nicodemus used to be a closet seeker of Jesus and now he was openly a follower. Joseph was rich, Nicodemus used to be rich but had sold all he had to follow Jesus. What the Lord showed me was that Nicodemus had to convince his rich, but closet friend who was called a disciple of Christ to go and ask for the body of Christ to bury Him. Joseph was very rich and would have had servants. He didn’t send a servant to do it. He went himself. Probably because he was still a closet disciple and afraid to openly express his discipleship to Jesus. The Lord also showed me that these were not old men because when Joseph went to get the body, he had to lift it. There is a reason they call it dead weight. Not something an old man can do. Nicodemus went to get the myrrh and aloes, which John 19:39 says it was about a hundred-pound weight. These were not old men. These were young men who could lift these weights. When I came to this part, the Lord showed me that when this was written, He made sure this 100 lb. weight was mentioned for this very reason because He would disclose it when the time required it. That blew me away. No longer were Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea old men in my mind. How would Nicodemus, this rich, young ruler, or one of highest rank have come to this point if Jesus hadn’t told him the truth and confronted the condition of his heart and what came before God. The Lord also showed me that Nicodemus no longer had a tomb, because he had sold it and that is why he had to go to his best friend who was a closet disciple to lay Jesus in Joseph’s tomb. Nicodemus would have if he had a tomb to lay Jesus in. Not only that, but it was a tomb only a rich man could afford in a beautiful garden. We miss so much when we read the bible that only the Lord can open up and reveal to us.
Nicodemus had this spiritual progression only when his true heart condition was exposed for what it was so that he could inherit eternal life. Jesus loved him enough to tell him the truth. When he showed fruit that proved he was repentant, he came to Jesus a second time asking what he needed to do to inherit eternal life and this indicated that he had done as Jesus instructed, which was to get rid of any idol he placed above God in order to come and follow Him. He now expected a different answer because he showed fruit that proved he was repentant as he had heard John preach. This would not have happened if he had not been told he had an idol and he needed to get rid of it to inherit eternal life.
Jesus is coming for a Glorious Church, without spot or wrinkle and He is restoring things to His church before He returns. He said that He would gather out of His kingdom all who offend. The church will be judged before the world. He is not talking about unbelievers. I so pray we allow Him to wash us in the water of the word. He weeps over those who are lost in our pews. I don’t want to be held accountable to those ending up in the lake of fire because of a stronghold or false belief I hold on to because of pride. Lord forgive us!
We are still in the time of Pentecost or grace. It is time to repent before the fall feast of the rapture is fulfilled because that time is upon us. The son of perdition is being revealed in order to give him space to repent and be caught up as well. To reveal means to disclose something that was not previously known because of our false doctrines. The mystery of iniquity has also been revealed. That means that something has been unfolded or disclosed at the appointed time. That time is now! With truth comes a response to it. How will you respond? How will you teach others you have influenced so that they don’t perish as well so that their blood is not on your hands?
“Involuntary ignorance is not charged against you as a fault; but your fault is this—you neglect to inquire into the things you are ignorant of.” Willful ignorance is a trait of people in the end times.
REGARDING THE TITHE!
Many church leaders shut up the kingdom of heaven to the poor and to those not able to put a roof over their heads or feed their own children in this world. We tell them that God will not help them or provide for them if they do not tithe and they will be cursed. Tithing is not an option and they are beat over the head by calling them God robbers as leaders quote from Malachi. Yet if you go to the book of Malachi, you will find, if you read it in context and ask yourself who God is speaking to and why, that God was speaking to the priests and church leaders, not the people. He was calling the church leaders “God Robbers” not the people because the church leaders were to tithe and their tithe was to provide food and physical necessities for the poor and needy who could not tithe. Now a days, the priests and church leaders call the poor and needy, God robbers for not giving to them. In thus doing, you shut up the kingdom of heaven to those needing Jesus and His provisions that He died to provide people with. By taking the bread out of the children’s mouth by demanding a single mom working three jobs to feed her kids and put a roof over their heads, that she tithe or she is cursed by God is an abomination to the Lord and you are the God robbers. The priests and church leaders were to be providing for the poor and needy who couldn’t give and when they didn’t, they were the ones robbing God, not the people. God cares for people, not your church building and light bills and for you to shut up the kingdom of heaven to the poor by demanding they tithe or be cursed, when you do not provide for them, you are the God robber. You teach things that you have no understanding of. You don’t read the word and ask yourself who God was talking to and why. You miss the whole point and because you do not have faith for God to meet your needs, you created a doctrine based on Jesus’ blood plus your money to deliver them from the curse of the law. Because you do not have faith in God to meet your financial needs, you have to beat people over the head with shame and name calling to get them to give to you so God will provide for them with their money, what Jesus purchased for them with His blood. You demand these people to have faith in God’s provision that you yourself do not have or you wouldn’t be beating them over the head to get them to give.
I belonged to a mega church in San Antonio, TX that was across the Hwy. to Pastor Hagee’s church on Hwy 281. That pastor never spoke about the tithe. He merely pointed out where the boxes were to put in your money or he mentioned that you could give online. His church was huge and God always provided more than he could ever ask or need. When it came to building, the money was already there and he would grow in his understanding of salvation and being spirit filled and as he grew and taught, God built the house and there was no laboring in vain. He wanted to be in God’s will and would always seek Him in it. God always met him and matured him along, and the people with him. No manipulating people to give because he lacked faith in God to move on the people to give. This man was not covetous nor clamored for notoriety. He was teachable and humble. I recently heard that he has retired and I am pretty sure he was younger than me! These people at this church saved my life! They were there when I needed them and I didn’t have to go through their classes or join their church for them to be there for me.
When multitudes followed Jesus, He fed them. He still does and they don’t have to tithe to do so. They don’t have to buy their blessings or provision by keeping a law in order to purchase what Jesus’ blood freely provided. You bring them back into works and the law and you will be cursed if you don’t repent of this practice. You want the people to have faith in God’s provision that you yourself do not have. Whatsoever you do to the least of these, you do unto me!
Jesus called the Pharisees vipers and a brood of vipers. A viper is a highly poisonous snake that attaches itself to your hand and will not let go. The hand symbolizes money or provision.
One other thing the Lord keeps bringing to my mind is the gentile woman who came to Jesus seeking deliverance for her daughter who was demon possessed. Jesus told her that it is not meet to give the children’s bread to the dogs. This woman was not a part of the Jewish family or a particular church. She did not belong yet, and she replied, “Yes Lord, but the puppies eat from the table of their master”! Jesus marveled at her faith. She merely asked for helped and Jesus granted it, even though she was not a member of the Jewish race or the church. Our churches today are so religious and exclusive that we will not help anyone who is not part of our church community. Experienced that here in Florida when I needed help at a church I was attending. The Lord was severely grieved by it and He told me, “I saw that! It will not go unpunished”! He confirmed this through multiple sources as well. Needless to say, the last thing I wanted to do after this was join this church and invite others if that was their attitude.
Jesus said that if you love Me, keep my commandments and that is to love God with your whole heart, mind, soul and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself. By so doing, you show the level of your love for God. So, let’s stop robbing God you Christian leaders by calling people God robbers and adding to the gospel making it a Jesus’ blood plus your money doctrine, shutting the up the kingdom of God to the people because you lack faith in His provision.
The tithe in the bible was like our taxes today. It provided for their welfare system and city needs being met. They lived in a theocracy that needed the tithe and we do the same thing in our democracy. Jesus asked Peter about paying taxes when He said, “Who pays the taxes? The servants or the children of the king”? Peter replied that the servants did. Jesus’ statement says it all about children of the king when He said, “Then the children are free”! If you have a servant instead of a kingdom child mentality, go ahead and pay! You are still working for what has already been purchased and are works oriented, not grace and faith, which makes one a child of the king. Who has bewitched you, you foolish Galatians?
Now you know why church leaders hate me! They love money more than God and don’t trust God to provide for them so my message brings fear, but it sets the slaves free!
I started this newsletter with a prophecy and will end it with another that the Lord gave me:
I am light saith The Lord and the darkness cannot comprehend the light. I drive out darkness by my very presence. I drive out hate by my very presence. I drive out sin by my very presence. I drive out pain and hurt by my very presence. For I AM light, love, holiness and healing. I AM that I AM. I will light your path, wipe your tears, manifest my love and draw you closer in the year ahead. There is coming a mighty shaking and wind of my very presence from my roar. The likes of which darkness is dispersed. It will blow around the world removing what displeases me and replacing it with what is pleasing to me. Don’t be afraid of this wind. Turn your face to the wind for it is my very breath, or spirit, breathing new life around the world, displacing the lies with truth, the false with the real so I can pour out my spirit upon all the earth in this latter rain. The wind or my breath will blow in the rain clouds as I pour my spirit (wind or pneumo) out upon all flesh. Turn your face into the wind and search the skies for the clouds that bring in this latter rain. This rain will produce a bountiful harvest but I need laborers, so turn your face into the wind and let go of all that holds you back and let my very presence and new breath of life blow off all that hinders you because I am going to send my yielded laborers out into the fields for a harvest like no other. It will come with demonstration of power that point to Me saith The Lord and My finished work on the cross. You will know the false from the real as the enemy has sown tares in my church manifesting false signs and lying wonders that do not point to me or reflect upon what I finished. False prophets prophecy out of their own spirit speaking what I have not spoken. Unbelievers seek for a sign, not believers. Believers manifest it because I am with them confirming the word that I AM who I say I am and the gates of hell shall not prevail. So turn your face into the wind of my breath or roar and yield to me and receive the former, middle and latter rain that I am about to pour out upon the earth before the great and terrible day of The Lord. I am coming soon! Come and see what God has done and what He is about to do! No flesh shall glory in my presence. With so many false prophecies, if it doesn’t point to Me and My finished work it is not from Me saith The Lord. Try the spirits and turn your face into the wind. The latter rain will follow as the wind blows in the rain clouds! The Lion and the Lamb that lay down together are both Jesus. He died as the lamb of God and is returning as the Lion of the Tribe of Juda.
