Conquering the Evil From Within

As we approach closer to the end, almost everyone is looking at the evil around them. Very few, unfortunately, look at the evil within themselves. There is no better time than the present to examine the evil lurking in each of us. Remember, that each of us will be judged by a most Holy and righteous God. I must say in the beginning this will not be a popular topic, for looking within can be the most humbling and humiliating experience of our lives. However, it is much better to do it now, rather than being totally exposed and humiliated at the throne of the Almighty. Now, you will have an opportunity to change. When the last trumpet is sounded or if you experience an untimely death, then it will be too late. So, if you are willing to take this journey from within let us proceed. The Holy Spirit will be our guide. He will take you to places that you could never have imagined. Hopefully, it will cause you to have many hours of self-reflection. My hope and prayers are that all who claim to be Christians will take this journey allowing the indwelling Spirit to bring deep conviction to their souls. Let’s begin.

The first stop in the journey is letting go of everything we think we know about ourselves. Depending on how old you are, you have already established certain standards for yourself. Although some of these little unpublished rules and regulations tend to change from time to time in a world of varying opinions, typically it’s easy to retain a certain level of pride for your accomplishments in fulfilling your goals. We all know that pride is a cardinal sin that’s rather blinding as it magnifies our self-esteem and tends to build barriers around ourselves from receiving any rebuke or admonishment from others about our seamless character. When we drop the barriers, then we allow the Holy Spirit to uncover every hidden flaw, digging deep within our hearts to lay a firm foundation. Won’t you allow the Spirit to convict you of every unseen sin? If we truly humble ourselves before God, asking Him to search our hearts and show us every unclean thing, then the Spirit will be happy to oblige (Psalm 139:23-24). We must, then, learn to let go by turning from every sin the moment it is discovered and exposed by the Spirit. If you are willing, it’s nearly impossible to read the Bible and not be convicted of some unseen sin. It is best to discover them now, rather than when it’s too late to do anything about it.

Our next stop on the journey is to carefully examine our every thought. Although these thoughts are hidden from others in the world, they are not hidden from God and the indwelling Spirit. Every thought is laid bare at the throne of Almighty God. God takes such a critical view of the thoughts of humanity that He destroyed the entire world with a flood because of their evil thoughts and vain imaginations (Genesis 6:5-7). I don’t want to shock your insensibility but every person on the planet has entertained an evil thought or vain imagination at one point in their lives. These thoughts often come without notice, either directly from the old sin nature or prompted by the powers of darkness, either way, they must be stopped and cast out immediately. It’s almost impossible to live in today’s world without encountering evil thoughts from every segment of society from lust-filled entertainment to massive greed-driven advertisement. This should cause us to be constantly on guard to immediately cast out the evil thoughts by replacing them with righteous and holy thoughts. Again the Holy Bible is our best resource to understand the nature of evil and the absolute beauty of righteousness in our thinking (Philippians 4:8).

Now, vain imagination is a much deeper topic that is capturing most of the minds of fallen humanity. Simply put fallen humanity is always looking for an escape from a world gone mad. This has been attempted from books to television and from an endless supply of videos to the growing number of social media platforms, but nothing has truly satisfied the demands of fallen humanity. For millions of years, humanity has found success in entertaining vain imaginations in the sanctuary of their own minds. They have successfully conjured up taking trips to distant lands and even to distant star systems. They have imagined interacting with different people or strange creatures all the while being the most important person. Imagining themselves with great wealth, superior strength, and otherworldly intelligence can occupy many hours locked away in the confines of their own minds creating their own adventures. This vain imagination is clearly a trap of the devil to keep us in bondage and away from following God’s will for our lives exclusively. As we take a deep look within, we must be honest with what we find bringing them before God in true repentance. Please remember, that God wants our entire self every moment of every day. To do anything less serves Satan, the god of this world. Cast out the vain imaginations and serve God with your every thought.

The mind is an amazing creation by the hand of God. Although Satan and the powers of darkness are behind the manmade creation of artificial intelligence, it will never be equal to what God has created. Although AGI will appear to come close and mimic the image of the beast in the Book of Revelation, it will never have the capacity to love one’s enemies and to serve others without ever expecting anything in return (Revelation 13:15). Although our minds were created in love to be love, since the fall it also can plan all manner of evil in the secret chambers of the mind. We may be found innocent in a court of law by saying, “Yes we thought it, but we never did it” but in the court of Almighty God, we would be found guilty as charged. Jesus Christ put His finger on it when He said, “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart” (Matthew 25:28). So, whatever a mind thinks about doing is indeed a sin even though you did not follow through on the trespass. Look within! Have you ever thought about revenge, hurting others, stealing, lying, cheating, deceiving others, or committing a sexual act with others, all done in the cloister of your own mind? The list is not exhaustive where every sin begins in the mind. Cast out the thought immediately and if necessary, rebuke the powers of darkness.

Are you still with me? We are taking a journey within, now, before it’s too late. Our every sin will be exposed, and our hearts will be opened for all to see, so it’s best to deal with it now. Allow the indwelling Spirit to convict you of the sin by listening to Him (John 16:8, 13). If you have not heard the Spirit, then you have not been listening. You will need to stop listening to the world first, all of its lies and propaganda, then you will be able to hear the indwelling Spirit. Once we are convicted of the sin of thinking, which includes vain imaginations, then we must repent by casting out the thoughts and agreeing to never think about them again. You may need to repeat this many times for Satan does not give up easily especially when he discovers that you have a certain weakness. God will help you if you seek His help in prayer. Cry out to God now, not when it’s too late as you stand before the Judge. Every time you cast out the evil thoughts and vain imaginations confess them before the Lord, and you will receive the refreshing waters of forgiveness. I hope you see how important this is for our nation as well. If God destroyed the entire world because of their thoughts, then He can do the same with a nation. I am not suggesting “thought police” but we should spread the word that everyone needs to be mindful of what they are thinking about and cast out the evil thoughts and vain imaginations immediately. Dear children, please don’t wait, ask God to help you conquer the evil from within. Judgement is coming.

Building Face-to-Face Relationships

As we draw closer to the end of all things, it is essential to build strong face-to-face relationships. Strong relationships will give us an opportunity to minister to others by assessing their real needs by moving past the pleasantries and the initial greetings. Strong relationships will allow them to observe God’s love flowing unhindered through us. We are ambassadors for Christ (II Corinthians 5:20). Unfortunately, social media has greatly limited our ability to build real relationships in the flesh. They have raised up an entire generation that no longer understands the responsibility and dynamics of building strong relationships with people they come face to face with, in the real world. As God’s children, we have a responsibility to build strong relationships through agape love. First, however, let’s look at the dynamics of building a strong relationship, then we will return to agape love. The dynamics are multifaceted that can only be learned through practice and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us in both our conversation and actions (Romans 8:14). We can practice all we want, but without the Holy Spirit to guide us we will be highly ineffective. You may learn the art of selling yourself, but you will never arrive at what God desires in God-centered relationships. So, let’s look closely at the dynamics.

Every relationship must begin with seeking God’s direction and His help. It always starts with a little silent prayer, “God help me to build a God-centered relationship” with such and such person. We must enter every prospective relationship with sincerity. Smiling, pleasantries, words spoken, and our actions must be sincere with no hidden motives. Believe me, hidden motives and insincerity will be spotted ending any potential relationship before we ever get started. Whatever you do, do it with a sincere heart (II Corinthians 8:8). It always begins with sincere caring for the other person motivated by true agape or self-giving love. The next two dynamics are learning how to listen and how to make good eye contact. Listening is much more than just hearing words. Making eye contact is much more than just looking into their eyes. How a person talks and where they look with their eyes will tell you volumes about the person you are attempting to build a relationship with. How much we really care about building a relationship with someone will greatly help us to better observe their speech and eye movements. We must learn to interpret their body language. I hope you are beginning to see how difficult this would be on social media.

Now, for a word of caution, never judge the other person as you begin to discover things through close examination of their body language discovered in their words used and their eye movements (John 7:24). If they look down or away it could be a number of different things such as trust issues, lack of confidence, or attempting to explain a perceived personal injury. These should not negate our ability to connect if we demonstrate a sincere loving and caring attitude by listening intently before responding. On the other hand, their continued unwillingness to make eye contact may demonstrate their unwillingness to build a relationship at the moment, but that too should not diminish our kindness and willingness to depart amicably. If they have good eye contact, then chances are you have their undivided attention. So, be prepared to present yourself with clear and precise communication, getting to the point as quickly as possible, and being careful to allow them to speak by interjecting their comments and questions along the way (I Peter 3:15). In your communication, it is essential to smile when applicable and show deep-seated concern when necessary. Remember, it is essential to be sincere letting your facial expressions match your caring heart. Remember, we are not robots or artificial intelligence with canned speeches, who can only respond to prompts. We are living, breathing, human beings who know how to listen to both voices and body language.

Listening is perhaps one of the most important skills in building a relationship (James 1:19, Proverbs 18:13, ESV). When others are speaking this is not a time to be thinking about our response or what we plan on doing later. Listening is a full-time job that takes a great deal of concentration. It may even be necessary to decode or interpret their words. You may need to repeat back what they have said, without their heightened emotions and vulgarity, to ensure that you have heard them correctly. Speaking without listening first causes misunderstandings and arguments (Proverbs 18:2, 13, ESV). We must have a desire to truly hear what they are saying, or our response will have little meaning. Listening to what they are actually saying, along with their voice inflections, and their moments of pause, are very important to understand both their real needs and their felt needs. It may also be necessary to pause before answering so that you can think about what they said and present it before the Lord in a short, silent prayer. Also, remember that we have already hidden God’s word in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, not ever to be used as a blunt instrument, but only to be used in love and encouragement (Psalm 119:11, Ephesians 4:29). Also, remember everything we say back must fit the occasion or it does not need to be said (Proverbs 25:11).

We must allow God to speak through us by way of the indwelling Holy Spirit. I cannot over-emphasize this, for this alone will help us build strong relationships. Remember, God loves the entire world and seeks to love others through us, both in our conversations and in our actions (I John 4:7,12). When God reveals a need, then we must trust Him to provide. This can only happen if we get out of the way and allow God to do His work through us. His love must flow unhindered through us. If it’s an emotional or psychological problem, then God has the answers (II Peter 1:3). If it’s a physical need, then God can provide, either direct healing or teach them how to trust in His loving providence. If it’s a financial need, again God has the ability and resources to answer every need according to His divine will. Why should we limit God? If someone is struggling with demons or a Satanic attack, then God will always lead us to intervene according to His will. Again, all this needs practice only as God leads. He will not heal every person. He will not meet every financial need. He will not cast out every demon. Dear children, everything must be done according to God’s will to realize His great power on high. There is great amazement to realize His great power working through us to the glory of God.

There is also great amazement to recognize God’s abounding love flowing through us to others. True agape love recognizes the real need, not the felt need. This is very important because many want us to fulfill their felt needs while they hide their real needs. People’s greatest real need is learning how to overcome their old sin nature (Ephesians 4:17-32). Most with any kind of ethical upbringing struggle against it daily, some even hourly. Others struggle against the powers of darkness even if they cannot tell what it is that’s tearing their lives apart. Others just struggle against what they call bad luck or bad decisions. Unfortunately, none of these people recognize that they could be reaping the consequences of their own sins (Galatians 6:7-9). They have not learned how to put off the old life and put on the new life in Christ. Let me be very clear, it’s nearly impossible to help these people on social media. It’s nearly impossible to understand their true struggles just by reading their post on social media. We must confront them face-to-face to read their body language with a sincere and forgiving heart. We must allow God’s love to flow through us leading us to minister to them in the power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).

Finally, the proof of a strong relationship is your willingness to stop whatever you are doing for yourself and immediately tend to the needs of others no matter how less important you feel it is. Strong relationships are developed by making their needs more important than your own needs. In God-centered relationships, we always live to serve others (I Peter 4:10). Can you imagine a world where this was as natural as taking your next breath? There would be no crime, there would be no lawlessness, just pure self-giving love. Although this is exactly how the new heavens and new earth will be, God’s children should still strive for this now in our present relationships. As we come closer to the end, we must build strong face-to-face relationships with others so that we can help them to be ready when Christ comes in judgment to judge the world. The Bible says, “For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’ (Galatians 5:13-14, ESV).” As we fast approach the end, let us imagine the whole world as our neighbors. Let us go forth building strong relationships to the glory of God. What’s coming on the horizon, we will all need strong God-centered relationships.

Rise Above the White Noise

This is my last article on social media. Time on earth is running out, please print this article from my secure website and share it with everyone you know. We must rise above the white noise to enter into silence and solitude so that we can receive the truth directly from God. The white noise has covered the entire planet for many years now instigated by Satan and the powers of darkness. Although the printing press was created over five hundred years ago to target just readers, other forms of mass communication were created a little over a century ago to enter into every village and town on the planet. Perhaps it started with the telephone, then the phonograph and the radio spreading various opinions throughout the known world. Make no mistake this white noise of various opinions, contradicting thoughts, and meaningless distractions were orchestrated by the powers of darkness. Even in its embryo stage, it created outrageous lies and great confusion sweeping the planet. Satan had taken a huge step toward world domination by capturing the hearts and minds of humanity. What would soon come would sever their religious roots and drive them further into the camp of the enemy. The increasing white noise of lies and confusion would prepare their hearts and minds for a new world, a world without God.

However, less than one hundred ago, the greatest intrusion into nearly every home on the planet was the television. Moving images across the screen would capture the imagination and fill their empty time with a new form of entertainment. In the beginning, it was careful to mirror only the present-day’s ethical and religious norms. In time, this would quickly change by introducing drugs and psychological counseling to benefit humanity, which would eventually nullify their trust in God alone. From the beginning the nightly news seemed beneficial to a world recovering from a world war and fears of continuing fractures to a new world system being formed. Even in its formative stage, the nightly news was being orchestrated by the powers of darkness to lead humanity to trust in their governments to deliver them from any future crisis or harm. Of course, as time progressed nightly news turned into 24-hour news with multiple guests, so-called professionals, expressing their own opinions leading humanity deeper into the pit of confusion. This in time, would raise up opposing groups adding to the white noise that’s leading humanity into the roots of chaos. This is Satan’s plan all along, who is orchestrating the white noise to overcome and control humanity.

All this white noise is deliberate. The white noise is gradually increasing by adding very subtle lines spoken by the actors in their movies with great authority. These movies are streaming out in the millions worldwide affecting the entire population. The movies were so subtle at the beginning that most didn’t notice the clear denial of creation by accepting the scientific belief in evolution. Those watching the movies did not notice the open denial of Biblical authority by emphasizing some disagreement in the original texts through various interpretations. The moviegoers did not notice how they gloriously accepted all the perversions by denying the created order of things, the unique biology of man and woman, created to come together as one. They also eagerly accepted it when the movies glamorized beauty, wealth, and self-importance by denying the beauty of the spirit, humility, and self-denial. The movies even justified the extreme anger and lawlessness to overcome some opposing viewpoints, seemingly for some greater good. Every step of the way movies and videos are leading humanity further and further away from following God and His righteousness. Humanity is slowly becoming overcome by the powers of darkness through a constant barrage of white noise.

Now Satan has pulled out his greatest weapons to defeat humanity and bring them under the tutelage of the Antichrist spirit. He is accomplishing this in three distinct steps. The first step was the internet giving a huge platform to certain people and organizations to express their opinions or to attract people to their platform for financial success. Since the beginning the internet has led most to trust in its platforms and search engines to give them all the information they needed even if it opposed the clear teachings of God. The white noise spread quickly around the entire world having a tremendous effect on public education, government policies, and scientific research. The second step was the social media platforms and trailing close behind was the cellphone. This opened Pandora’s box by giving a platform for every person on the planet. Opinions are flying millions of miles a minute bringing forth great confusion among the masses driving most further away from God and His unchanging truth. Right behind this was the cellphone allowing everyone to spend the largest part of their days following the white noise. This alone has driven humanity away from silence and solitude to hear the still voice of God. I have already written about the third step where AI will be the final push of white noise to lead the entire world to trust in the Antichrist spirit. Only the faithful remnant will see the danger and rise above the white noise.

When we rise above the white noise and spend our days in silence and solitude before the Lord, then we will only see the truth. I have written previously about how only the truth can set us free from all the lies and confusion in the world. I have written previously about the seven trumpets and the seven bowls of God’s wrath in the Book of Revelation. I have shown how they have been progressively poured out on unrepentant humanity since the first century. Any student of history can easily see how the world is dangerously slipping into total chaos and Armageddon. However, we are getting a completely different picture from the powers of darkness who are spreading the white noise. They have carefully explained every plague and woe away by attributing it to global warming, an epidemic of mental illnesses, and unknown viruses. They have self-righteously explained away the final battle and Armageddon by portraying the attacker as the ruthless enemy and not the hand of almighty God rendering His final judgment on unrepentant humanity. The truth is the only thing that will open the eyes of humanity. Only the truth will cause them to repent and humble themselves before an Almighty God. We need to rise above the white noise and enter into silence and solitude before God – before it’s too late.

I had a prophetic vision of the visible rapture of the faithful remnant being caught up to meet Jesus Christ coming in the air to render His judgment on fallen humanity as they shockingly witnessed the earth’s final destruction. This was a shocking vision as I saw God’s faithful remnant suddenly appear in the sky to meet Jesus Christ coming in the clouds (I Thessalonians 4:17). I noticed and felt in my heart that these faithful ones had come from a terrible time of intense pain and suffering. They were all fully dressed, coming from every part of the world. Each appeared to be holding something in their hands to present what they had to the risen Lord. After considerable reflection, it became clear that this was the increase of their talents given to them by God (Matthew 25:14-30). Each had been faithful in using their Spiritual talents to bring others into the Kingdom and to help others grow up Spiritually from one degree of glory to another. It was an amazing sight to witness their great deliverance from what they had experienced and see their amazing joy to finally be in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. It became suddenly clear that these faithful ones vanished immediately from the earth leaving only the coming of Christ in the sky to be seen by every eye. It was not their empty clothes and shoes, portrayed by Hollywood, that brought shock and awe to the world, but it was Christ coming back in the clouds where every eye would see Him coming in judgment (Revelation 1:7).

Their shock and awe would be the final judgment of God as the last trumpet was sounded and the last bowl of His wrath was poured out on unrepentant humanity. They all had their chance to repent, but they refused. They all had the opportunity to hear the voice of God, but they refused. Yes, there was a great falling away because they nullified their trust and faith in God alone. They rejected the gift of the Holy Spirit and utilized their own spirit to follow the works of their own hands. Yes, many gave up waiting because they had believed the lie that Christ would come back before the Great Tribulation and the evil works of the Antichrist (II Thessalonians 2:3). Yes, they could not hear the voice from heaven because they had all embraced the white noise that had covered the entire planet. They were all caught up in wars and rumors of war. They completely ignored the prophecy about lawlessness and the love of many growing cold (Matthew 24:12). The sudden disappearance of the saints, even if they would have seen them, would not have made any difference. They did not become fully aware until they saw Jesus Christ coming in the clouds to usher in the final judgment. Dear faithful remnant, I pray today that you are using the Spiritual gifts and talents that God has given to you to build up the Kingdom of God. In conclusion, this will be impossible unless you rise above the white nose by coming out from among them and entering into silence and solitude before the Lord, so you can hear His still small voice (Revelation 18:4-5). Only the truth will set us free.

Only Truth Will Set Us Free

“The truth will set you free,” has rung through all the hallowed halls of humanity since these words were first uttered two millennia ago by the Son of God. As the world goes deeper and deeper into bondage, they still don’t understand the meaning of these amazingly powerful words. Consequently, the world is still being held captive by the powers of darkness, which has created enslavement to every emotional and psychological problem known to mankind. Hate and hostility are literally ripping them apart as the whole world is racing toward Armageddon. The prophets of old spoke about a time in the future when the spirit of Antichrist would arise as the man of lawlessness in an age of unchecked anarchy and unfettered lawlessness. Well, the time is now, and the great nations of the earth have sunk deeper into bondage legalizing every abominable transgression against God’s holy law. It’s most difficult to just read the headlines in the daily news media where nearly every story has humanity fighting against one another with slanderous words, unbelievable accusations, and unfiltered propaganda or some new conspiracy theory. There is not a day that goes by where people are savagely killed, wounded, or even tortured beyond belief. Listen, and you can hear their voices crying out in agony with no known escape from their horrific captivity. Continue reading Only Truth Will Set Us Free

Unveiling The Spirit of Antichrist

If you have been following my recent writings, then you know that I have written much about the spirit of Antichrist. Today, we will take a deep dive into the subject of unveiling the spirit of the Antichrist. We will unveil how the spirit of Antichrist is already capturing the entire world. Although this captivity is not generally recognized by humanity, it is partially recognized by professed Christians. There is a greater awakening, however, among God’s faithful remnant as we fast approach the Last Days, where many are beginning to question what’s being taught in their pulpits of the lukewarm churches. Lukewarm churches have become a seedbed of false doctrines for trusting in the Antichrist system to meet all of their felt needs. Many are shocked at the increase in lawlessness and the grossest of immorality filling our public schools. Instead of detailing every form of lawlessness and perversion as we have done in our previous articles, we will paint with broad strokes to expose how the spirit of Antichrist is leading the entire world to reject God. This is accomplished by teaching the whole world to put their trust in the Antichrist system in preparation for the coming Antichrist. Continue reading Unveiling The Spirit of Antichrist
