God instructs us throughout the bible to have a fear of the Lord. With that comes a love of truth which leads us to our belief, our faith in God. Our faith is what makes us righteous in God's eyes. If we believe in Jesus Christ we are set apart from those that do not and do evil. We all sin but we are accounted as Righteous by our Faith in Jesus Christ:
(Heb 13:6 [KJV])
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
(Prov 22:4 [KJV])
By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.
The Fear of the Lord defined from the Bible
(Prov 8:13 [KJV])
The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
(Prov 15:33 [KJV])
The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.
(Prov 16:6 [KJV])
By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.
(Prov 19:23 [KJV])
The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
(Prov 9:10 [KJV])
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
Today we are given the power, love and a sound mind through the Holy Spirit:
(2Tim 1:7 [KJV])
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
(Prov 15:16 [KJV])
Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith.
(Lev 19:14 [KJV])
Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD.
(Matt 13:41 [KJV])
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
(Prov 1:7 [KJV])
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Prov 1:24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; Isa 65:12; Isa 66:4; Jer 13:10; 25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: 26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; 27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Job 27:9; Job 35:12; Isa 1:15; Jer 11:11; Jer 14:12; Ezek 8:18; Mic 3:4; 28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: 29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: 30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. 31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. 32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.8 33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
(Num 14:9 [KJV])
Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not.
Conclusion:
We find comfort as Christians in the Holy Spirit:
(Acts 9:31 [KJV])
Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
Fear the Lord and love the truth
(2Thess 2:7 [KJV])
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
(2Thess 2:8 [KJV])
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
(2Thess 2:9 [KJV])
Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
(2Thess 2:10 [KJV])
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
(2Thess 2:11 [KJV])
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
(Luke 12:4 [KJV])
And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
(Luke 12:5 [KJV])
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
(Heb 13:6 [KJV])
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
(Isa 46:9 [KJV])
Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
(1John 2:15 [KJV])
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
(1Pet 3:15 [KJV])
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

Attributes of God
God is a Tri-unity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is the creator of all things. He is infinite and perfect, eternally existing in three equal persons, each possessing the nature of deity, as well as the characteristics of personality. He is Omnipresent, Omnipotent and Omniscient.
Deut 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: KJV
Isa 48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me. KJV
Matt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: KJV
John 6:27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. KJV
Acts 5:3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? KJV
Acts 5:4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. KJV
Acts 2:1-47 1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. 5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. 12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? 13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. 14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. 16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: 21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. 22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it. 25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: 26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: 27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. 28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance. 29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; 31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. 32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. 33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool. 36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. 37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. 42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. KJV
2Cor 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. KJV
Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. KJV

Love (agape) Used in The Bible 281 Times But 23 Times in 1 John
Sometimes I like to see how often an important word or phrase is used in the Bible and then examine how it is used. We all should know that love is a very important part of being a christian. Jesus said we show our love for Him by keeping his commandments. Also, we know that God loved us first and we must love our neighbors in turn.
And I enjoy pondering the fact that we are told not to love the things that are in the world. I take every verse of the Bible as it is written. If God says any man that loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him, then I believe exactly that. So that is saying simply do not love the world. If you love the world then you prefer the world over the heavenly home we should be looking forward to with Jesus.
What is love? Read on:
(1John 2:5 [KJV])
But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
(1John 2:15 [KJV])
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

(1John 3:11 [KJV])
For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

(1John 3:16 [KJV])
Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
(1John 3:17 [KJV])
But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
(1John 3:18 [KJV])
My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
(1John 4:19 [KJV])
We love him, because he first loved us.
(1John 4:20 [KJV])
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
(1John 4:21 [KJV])
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
(1John 5:2 [KJV])
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

Some Interesting Connections Between Islam, New Age Movement, Luciferianism, the United Nations, Grace Movement, Prosperity Gospel and Biblical Christianity
Something I've noticed some time ago is that it just seems everyone you read about that is an expert on religion has a hammer to bash the doctrine that Jesus Christ taught. Be it Islam that says Jesus is not the Son of God, or New Age teachers that promote satanic writers like Helena Blavatsky (Wayne Dyar), or Deepak Chopra who speaks of Jesus as if he were a myth but lifts up Muhammad who won converts by the sword and was given his information through the channeling of an evil spirit.
Then you've got the wolves in sheep clothing teaching a worldly prosperity gospel or a hyper grace gospel. Joel Osteen teaches very little that is in the bible and what he does say is taken out of context. Joseph Prince tells people they can leave all the worries and guilt of sin at the door after they are on team Jesus. Why? Once you are saved you just sit back and let God do all the work, I mean he is going to get all the glory you know. That is the kind of attitude that God will not be satisfied with. Those doctrines are pleasing to the sinners and natural man. True conversion and being born again by the Holy Spirit is tough if you are being told the wrong stuff.
To all these false teachers I give a big thumbs down and hope maybe they will see the error in their ways. Then they will need to admit that Jesus is the only way to salvation and repent of their false teachings. God will even forgive these guys if they come to repentance. It isn't too late for them to get out of the fast lane on the highway to hell they are all on.

Wayne Dyar Supports and Promotes Satanic Doctrine
I'm not certain if Wayne Dyar is a victim of the New Age movement or if he is in fact a willing participant. But I've ready many of Wayne Dyar's books and I've recommended them as well. What I did not realize at the time and this is before he was talking about Deepak Chopra and getting very spiritual, but now I can say with confidence that Wayne has gone off the deep end into the use of channeling to write and supporting known Luciferian Madame Helena Blavatsky's anti christian book called "Secret Doctrine".
You can get the book for free online to check the facts if you care to. But if you are a christian and you also like supplementing your spiritual life with the readings of Wayne Dyar then I would suggest you pick your side. Do you choose Satan or do you choose Jesus? You cannot choose both. Someone in my family that loves Wayne Dyar asked me if I thought he was evil. At the time all I knew was that Wayne Dyar is new age and that he may be deceived. But I had no idea that he actually promoted and praised a book called "Secret Doctrine" by Blavatsky.
Blavatsky says that the real god is Satan. Blavatsky laid the groundwork through channeling this book from an evil spirit for Luciferianism. This is the modern day secret society religion. The founder of the North American Scottish Rite Freemasons Albert Pike was a follower of Blavatsky and Lucifer. In his book "Morals and Dogma" which you can also get online for free he says that all Freemasons above the 32 degree know that the god which they worship is Lucifer which they call the Light Bearer.
So if Wayne Dyar has no issue with supporting a Luciferian's writings and praising those writings, then I say he is either deceived, possessed or purposefully serving Satan. Either way, without a belief that Jesus is the only way to eternal life and repentance Wayne Dyar will not be with the Saints very soon at the Rapture.

Imagine Not Having Access to the Bible In Your Language
Now imagine what it would be like the day you received this. Here is what that was like for a Tribe in Indonesia
Are You Entering Through The Straight Gate and Narrow Way Which Leads to Life, Or Are You On A Wide Path To Destruction?
Paul Washer classic quote: "I don't know why your clapping....I'm talking about you"
(Matt 7:13 [KJV])
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
(Matt 7:14 [KJV])
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
(Matt 7:15 [KJV])
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
(Matt 7:16 [KJV])
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
(Matt 7:17 [KJV])
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
(Matt 7:18 [KJV])
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
(Matt 7:19 [KJV])
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
(Matt 7:20 [KJV])
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
(Matt 7:21 [KJV])
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
(Matt 7:22 [KJV])
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
(Matt 7:23 [KJV])
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
(Matt 7:24 [KJV])
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
(Matt 7:25 [KJV])
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
(Matt 7:26 [KJV])
And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
(Matt 7:27 [KJV])
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
Are you a true Christian? Are you sensitive to sin and repent when you sin?
The Christian choice is the only way to provide eternal life. Jesus Christ is the only way to our heavenly Father. We must choose to follow Jesus Christ, and if we do that and believe in Him then we will be saved. We become born again by the power of the Holy Spirit changing our lives and regenerating our minds daily. We love our fellow man so that those that do not believe may feel the love of God.

How Much Will It Cost To Be a Christian After the Rapture
Paul Washer says, "they will come after us, they will come after our children......the net even now is closing around your children....you will be isolated from society.....until finally we are silenced.....for being radicals....you will go down as the biggest bigots in history.....and you wonder why they come out of schools not serving Christ....you fed them to the wolves."
In history Christians are martyred for crimes not for a public glorifying of these people. We will be persecuted and accused by man for hideous crimes. Be ready to lose everything.
The persecution of christians is happening now in the US. Spiritual warfare is in full swing. We are being silenced and in many cases there is a requirement by the government to lift up abominations in order to do business with the government (LGBT mandates).

Not to sound all new age like, but as an American there are some things I've noticed for a long time. We depend on doctors that are educated in a system that promotes making money of patients that are sick. If we could all the sudden cure cancer or rid ourselves of bothersome allergies or skin conditions simply by doing things that are preventative and almost free then the healthcare system and pharmaceutical industry would experience a crash.
We are rarely exposed to information in the media that promotes things that are truly healing other than diet and exercise. Most people are so addicted to processed foods and watching tv that we see the good it does to the population in general simply by going out to our local malls or Wal Mart and just observing all the overweight unhappy looking people.
I believe these things to be the essentials that can give you the best detoxifying results both in your body and your mind.
1. Stop watching TV and the news and get rid of your cable.
2. Don't waste your time playing video games especially any of the violent ones.
3. Exercise at least half an hour daily (walking at a minimum).
4. Read the Bible because it really is food for the soul.
5. Pray alone everyday multiple times throughout the day. Also pray with others whenever you have the opportunity.
6.. Find out the best methods for a colon cleanse and liver detox and liver cleanse.
7. Kill parasites in your body and cleanse them out by fasting and a colon cleanse.
8. If you do Facebook or any social sites consider deleting your account. Keep up with family and friends via email or phone. We become so disconnected to the people in our life by connecting digitally.
Imagine your life full of little distractions, no major health issues, the ability to sleep, no anxiety, and joy filled. First of all you get that primarily from being regenerated by the Holy Spirit. But it also doesn't hurt to stay healthy in body by removing the toxins from your body and the mental distractions from your life.
These things are not hard to do. For a long time my wife and I agreed that we should get rid of cable and start reading the Bible together as a family and do a fast and you get the idea. It wasn't until we started making a real effort that our lives were changed for the better.
I don't spend time talking about what happened on some tv show or hooking up with my pepes on Facebook.
Time is short. Use it wisely.

Revelation 3 The Lukewarm Christian
Because Revelation 3:15-17 states the following:
(Rev 3:15 [KJV])
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
(Rev 3:16 [KJV])
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
(Rev 3:17 [KJV])
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
So what is the lukewarm person? If someone says that they are rich and need nothing and do not know that they are wretched and miserable and poor, and blind and naked....this person will be spued out of the mouth of Jesus.
I don't want to add or take away from these verses but it seems to me that someone that is hot is someone that is devoted to God. Realizing that you need God and that Jesus is the only way for us humans and that without Him we are not good. We need God and we are wretched, but by faith we are righteous.
I've read some teachings that seem to define what hot, cold and lukewarm is that is different from what the book of Revelation actually states. To all those I would say that you are adding to the book of Revelation and there are repercussions when you do that. False teachers twist the gospel to fit their doctrines. The doctrines that do this typically attract members through carnal means and play down on the importance of repenting of our sins and focusing on the spirit not on the world.
(Rev 3:15 [KJV])
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

Sheep in Wolves Clothing?
Former lead guitarist of the successful metal band Korn left the group in 2005 due to a conversion to Christianity. The first thing I think of when I see metal bands is usually, "hey, that looks satanic." So when I ran across a video about this Brian "Head" Welch I had my doubts this guy is really a saved Christian.
It is 2013 and it appears as if this Brian Welch is still on fire for Jesus. I say that based on this 2012 interview here below. Some things that stand out to me are that he professes Jesus as his Lord and Savior, speaks of being saved from his drug addiction only through Jesus, is driven to speak boldly about his wrong ways in the past. He also spoke of how important it was for him to be closer to God. To read the Bible as much as possible and not waste any more time not getting to know God.
I can relate to what he says about these things and my feelings are this man has been saved and placed in front of all the people that have in the past and may now idolize this band or this man. How many people may this guy have helped save? I'm not sure but God is amazing in how he can change people. Brian seems to be an example of the miracle of the regeneration of the mind by the power of the Holy Spirit.
This interview between Head and Fieldy (bassist for Korn) it was really nice to see the work that God did in Fieldy's life as well.
I'd say these are some sheep in wolves clothing.

The Cheap Grace of Joseph Prince Versus the Bible
Cheap Grace Versus the Bible
What kind of child would you get if you raised your child the following way?
1. Raise them to believe that they can really do no wrong as long as they believe in their parents.
2. Give them anything their worldly heart desires based on the fact that they still believe in their parents.
3. Whenever they get caught doing something wrong, instead of punishing them you give them a hug and tell them you love them.
4. Heck, you give the a raise in their allowance because they got caught sinning just so they don't feel too bad about their disobedience.
5. You tell your children that instead of thanking you for everything they have you just tell them to sit back because all the glory goes to the parents so if all the glory goes to them then they should do all the work.
You would end up with a child that is confused, worldy, spoiled and without divine intervention likely to go to hell.
So why would God treat us as an irresponsible parent might? He wouldn't and doesn't and never has.
Joseph Prince says, "It is the gift of no condemnation that gives people the power to sin no more."
This is not accurate
(Rom 8:1 [KJV])
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Let's see what else God has to say about repentance, grace, sin, and other things that are distorted by Joseph Prince.
(Acts 20:21 [KJV])
Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
(Acts 26:20 [KJV])
But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.
Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matt 25:11; Luke 6:46; Luke 13:25; Acts 19:13; Rom 2:13; Jas 1:22; 22 Many
will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Jer 14:14; Jer 27:15; Luke 13:26; 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never
knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Ps 6:8; Matt 25:12; Matt 25:41;
(2Cor 11:13 [KJV])
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
(2Cor 11:14 [KJV])
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
(2Cor 11:15 [KJV])
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
(Gal 6:7 [KJV])
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
(Ps 6:8 [KJV])
Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
(Matt 25:41 [KJV])
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
(Gal 1:9 [KJV])
As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
(Rom 6:20 [KJV])
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
(John 8:34 [KJV])
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Matthew 7:12-14
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Luke 6:31; 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to
destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:1 Luke 13:24; 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it
(Luke 13:24 [KJV])
Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
(Matt 23:28 [KJV])
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
(Jas 4:14 [KJV])
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
Luke 12:31
31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. 1Chr 3:13; Ps 37:25; 32
(Luke 9:23 [KJV])
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
(1Tim 1:9 [KJV])
Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
Matthew 22:40
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. Deut 6:5; Deut 10:12; Deut 30:6; Luke 10:27; 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour as thyself. Lev 19:18; Mark 12:31; Rom 13:9; Gal 5:14; Eph 5:2; 1Thess 4:9; Jas 2:8; 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
(John 15:9 [KJV])
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
(John 15:10 [KJV])
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
(2Thess 2:11-12 [KJV])
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
John 15:14 [KJV])
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
(John 15:15 [KJV])
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
(John 15:16 [KJV])
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
(John 15:17 [KJV])
These things I command you, that ye love one another.
(John 15:18 [KJV])
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
(John 15:19 [KJV])
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
What kind of child would you get if you raised your child the following way?
1. Raise them to believe that they can really do no wrong as long as they believe in their parents.

Interesting Points Placed in the Congressional Record Back in the Early 1960s
The following is the list of Communist goals contained in The Naked Communist:[2] (Note: there is no such list in the original edition of the book.)
U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces.
Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
Do away with all loyalty oaths.
Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
Gain control of all student newspapers.
Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."
Control art critics and directors of art museums.
Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch."
Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.
Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity, masturbation and easy divorce.
Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use "united force" to solve economic, political or social problems.
Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
Internationalize the Panama Canal.
Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.
U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

How I Know That Joseph Prince Is A False Teacher...Easy
Oh these false teachers are everywhere. It seems that the most excited people I've talked to about religion in person that is in the last six months have all either worshipped a false god or follow a false doctrine. I've had Muslims, Jehovah's Witnesses, Ammillenialists, and recently I've been introduced to a new false doctrine. This newly discovered (by me anyway) doctrine is that of the Grace Movement...aka Joseph Prince. This load of dung is a mixture of hyper dispensationalism, coupled with cheap grace, and a large serving of prosperity gospel topped off with a splash of pride. Sounds like a recipe invented by Satan.
It came to no surprise that this Joseph Prince just happens to be buddies with no other than Joel Osteen. I'm not going to go too far into studying how wrong this doctrine is because others have done that already from what I can see on the inter-webs.
But just cutting to the chase I'll list some attributes that demonstrate the signs of a false religion and a fraud.
1. New Creation Church in Singapore has over 60,000 members in Singapore alone.
2. Joseph Prince preaches that we don't even need to do anything after we believe because all the glory goes to God, so let him do all the work. The pride and arrogance the man speaks of God. He wraps a morsel of truth up and packages the rest in lies.
3. Cheap grace doctrine does not produce a changed man. or a new creature and we know what Jesus said about being saved. Unless you are born again of the Holy Spirit and become a new creature you will not have everlasting life.
4. In reference to #3 above, I find if quite ironic that they named the church "New Creation Church" when what Joe preaches does not lead to a new creation but rather the second death.
5. Joseph Prince is buddies with Joel Osteen......yea, that's no good.
When I think of where the true believers are in these end times, my first thought is not at the largest church that promotes worldly success and brings in hundreds of millions of dollars all the while promoting the easy wide gate to destruction.
Quick question for you that read the Bible:
1. How did Jesus say we believers show our love for Him? Was it something about keeping his commandments?
2. Which people does Jesus tell to depart from Him those workers of iniquity? Sounds like the followers of Joseph Prince.
If you have been boondoggled into believing what Joseph Prince promotes please look deeper into the Bible. Read the Bible and don't listen to some con artist or even me for that matter. Read the Bible and ask the Holy Spirit to teach you. God will show you if you humbly seek for the truth in His word. Read daily. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. With faith comes grace and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and repentance and a regeneration of our minds by the power of the Holy Spirit. We change and we are aware of our sins even more after we are saved. When you are made aware of your righteousness in your faith you are also aware of your sin. You should feel bad for sin and ask for forgiveness and turn from your sin. Sinning causes a separation from God and our fellowship with God is stronger when we are walking on the narrow path. Sin is a big deal.
