This site is dedicated to those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, the fruit of which is peace - quietness and confidence forever. To those poor in spirit, who seek a much closer relationship with God and Christ. To those pilgrims in a strange land, who know there has to be something more. To those who mourn under the burden of sin; to be truly clean in thought, word, and deed. To those who long to serve the Lord, according to his direction and will. To those wayfaring men and women who have been searching for their Beloved, turn in here. We proclaim the Holy Way to find the water so you never thirst again - to find Bread from heaven- to find fullness and completeness in Christ - to hear and see and know your Beloved - Christ in you, the hope of glory.
From the Voice of the Lord
"Welcome to my site.
Are you ready to see your sins?
The cross is offered to all.
Are you ready to suffer the shame,
the pain, and the blood of the cross -
or do you cry out with indifference?
Yes, it is your birthday -
as many as are at their savior's feet.
There are six things I will put in order in front of your eyes:
1-how evil proceeds out of the heart,
2-and goes forth out of the mouth.
3-how your heart longs for evil.
4-how your feet are swift to run to evil.
5-how your heart builds a strong tower as a bulwark of defense.
6-how your heart is a mirror of the world.
As many as I love, I chastise.
This is the Word of the Lord to you all:
He who is not on the cross
is repulsive to me.
There has never been a time like now; all men will twist in the earth.
If those who hear will obey, their progress will be swift.
Those who follow their own brain will weep and mourn; there will be great pain.
Who have become Quakers
are an anathema.
They blot my efforts. They cumber the ground.
The early Quaker writings are a rich heritage, which all must strive to fully understand.
Proverbs: we must all believe the hidden comforts in those proven words.
Be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Make no provision for the flesh.
I am against the shepherds, who have prophesied a false salvation.
You are my disciple, if you do what I say.
Hear the word of the Lord from within." |
To attain the available fullness, one needs to know, and then believe what is possible. The writings of George Fox testify to thousands of men and women who became one with Christ and God and exhibited their moral ethnicity, and how this joy is available to all who hope and believe in the power of his name, and the true gospel: repentance to purity through the inward cross of self-denial, the power of God. And after purity, to enter paradise, the Kingdom of God within and among us; our consciousness and sight being translated to the spiritual dimension, to live in union with Christ and God in their presence, while walking on earth by the light of God, as children of the light. For God is light and nearby; in him we live and move and have our being.
From the Voice of the Lord: "These writings show the true character of the church of Christ as well as the way out of darkness to light. Within these writings, you may attain the way to salvation and disprove others, while discovering the hidden depths of the gospel that Jesus came to deliver."
This is not repent for the end of the world in near. This is repent to enter paradise on earth - good news, not bad news. For God is good and wishes us to be with Him as a partaker of the divine nature. But to be in his presence, we must become pure through death of our sinful nature on the Missing Cross to Purity - the inward cross of self-denial that leads to purity - missing from, and forgotten by Christianity today. These writings show the way to purity and union through the inward cross of self-denial.
If anyone would come after me,
he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
Anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.
A great darkness has perverted salvation to be instant, actuated by various forms of heathenish ritual, leaving us captive to our sinful natures; confusing the Kingdom of God, within you and among you, which does not come with signs to be observed or visible display, to be an after-death heaven; and then again confusing the return of Christ with his Kingdom to individuals purified from their sinful natures, to be a future one-time return of Christ to the whole world. This site's purpose is to unravel the knot of lies blanketing Christianity and scripturally correct the confusion, in hope of inspiring you to seek the available union with Christ and God in the Kingdom while on earth, which comes to individual persons by repentance to purity.
From the Voice of the Lord: "This is the day of your visitation, regarding the business of obedience feared and repentance required."
When he appears, we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he is.
Everyone who has this hope in him
purifies himself,
just as he is pure.
Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God.
(Until you are pure in heart,
you will not see God.)
And this is the will of Him that sent me,
that everyone who sees the Son and believes on him,
may have everlasting life, .
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have
crucified the sinful nature,
with its passions and desires.
Woe to the inhabitants of the earth,
who stand forth without repentance!
6
Your covenant with death will be annulled,
and your agreement with hell will not stand.
For God has not called us unto uncleanness,
but unto holiness.
Without holiness, no one will see the Lord.
Those who are living the life of the flesh
[catering to the appetites and impulses of their carnal nature]
cannot please or satisfy God,
or be acceptable to Him.
Those of the world would have a Christ
to excuse them
to live in their passions and pleasures, at no cost.
Those committed to truth would have a Christ
to change them
to live pleasing to God, whatever the price.
The false gospel of grace says Jesus came to set you free from guilt of sin, lulling you to have no fear of God's disapproval and to remain in your sinful nature until death, thereby missing any chance to inherit the Kingdom of God. To suppose that Jesus erases guilt for continuing to sin, changes grace (God's love) into a license for immorality and makes Jesus a promoter of sin. The true gospel says Jesus came to set you free from sin, by destroying the sinful nature within you, through obedient repentance and change by grace, the missing cross, the power of God, which produces purity and union with Christ and God, in the Kingdom of Heaven; walking by his light in his perfect will, while on earth, and then forever.
Repentance and Remission of Sins
should be preached in His name to all nations.
Jesus does not just forgive your past sins, he promises to bring you out of darkness to a sinless state, through repentance. Most deficit sects preach instant salvation by grace, never mentioning repentance; some deficit sects speak of repentance, but without a clue on how to achieve it. Whatever their various heathenish rituals employed, all of the deficit sects' instant salvations are without repentance to life, leaving you still captive to sin and without salvation.
Jesus said, 'I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.' .
If you are a slave to sin, Jesus cannot be your Lord. Jesus said himself, you cannot serve two masters!
The acts of the sinful nature include sexual immorality, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, [greed],
sorcery, hatred,
contentions,
jealousies,
rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, etc.
...those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
You can be sure:
No immoral, impure or greedy person..has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
But, these sins do not make you unfit for God's help by grace to eliminate them.
So kill (deaden, deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).
Jesus said, .. whatever comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and this is what makes a man unclean and defiles.
For out of the heart come evil thoughts (reasonings and disputings and designs) such as murder, adultery,
sexual vice, theft, false witnessing, slander, and irreverent speech. .
.. And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it.
These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him: 1 ) A proud look, 2)
a lying tongue, 3) hands that shed innocent blood, 4) a heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, 5) feet that are swift in running to evil, 6) a false witness who breathes out lies, and 7) he who sows discord among his brethren.
John said, Anyone who hates his brother has committed murder in his heart.
Jesus said, But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. So, just restraining your desires is not enough - the desires have to be crucified - destroyed - removed.
But, Jesus came to destroy sin and the works of evil in us - if we go to him.
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested [in us], that he might destroy the works [sin] of the devil.
As Jesus told Paul: I am sending you to open their eyes
that they may turn from darkness to light and
from the power of Satan to God,
so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins
and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me.
Salvation is not to remain enslaved to passions and pleasures.
Salvation is to live free from lusts and rage.
He promises control of our emotions - and everlasting peace.
But today's deficit sects, still captive to sin, believe in a God whose favor is presumed to be granted due to their heathenish ritual and form of godliness; while denying a God of power, who is eager to free us from the oppression and captivity of sin, so that we can secure his promises, which require our holiness and purity. These deficit sects have defined a false gospel that promises heaven to those still sinning , and a false Jesus, who supposedly accepts sin, disobedience, and disregard of his commands. As Paul said, "cursed is anyone who brings you a different gospel," a different gospel and different Jesus from what he preached; which was to open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me. The deficit sects falsely preach a different gospel than Paul, while completely ignoring, totally dismissing, and failing to believe the Good News that Jesus announced he had been sent by God to proclaim:
Are You Really a Disciple of Christ?
So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple. And whosoever does not bear his cross,
and come after me, cannot be my disciple.He that finds his life shall lose it,
and he that loses his life
for my sake shall find it.as I have loved youso you too should love one anotherif
If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.
And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
He who feeds on My flesh and drinks My blood dwells [abides] continually in Me,
and I in him.
All that will live godly in Christ Jesus
shall suffer persecution.
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
If anyone desires to come after Me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. |
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim
freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.
To open the blind eyes,
to bring out the prisoners from the prison,
and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
Isa 42:7
Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.
These deficit sects don't understand the Kingdom or how to crucify the sinful nature by repentance, necessary to be set free from sin and to enter the Kingdom. Yet that was his message, and the reason why Jesus said he was sent to the world!
I must preach the good news
of the kingdom of God,
..because that is why I was sent.
The kingdom of God
does not come with signs to be observed
or with visible display,
Nor will people say, Look! Here ! or, See, there!
For behold,
the kingdom of God is within you and among you.
The time has come ,
the kingdom of God is near.
Repent, and believe the good news.
Notice, he said, the time has come, the Kingdom is near. He is not talking about a Kingdom thousands of years later. In Matthew, Mark, and Luke, Jesus is recorded saying that some then standing with him, 2000 years ago, would see his glorious coming with the Kingdom before they died. In Matthew, Mark, and Luke, Jesus is recorded saying all the end times prophesies would be fulfilled before the generation of 2000 years ago died, (click here to see all).
2000 years ago, he told us to Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
We are supposed to ignore the pursuit of food and clothing so that we can dedicate ourselves to seeking the Kingdom of God.
2000 years ago he told us to pray the Lord's Prayer, including pray: Thy Kingdom come.
These commands make no sense if the Kingdom of God is only coming to a generation thousands of years later.
But Jesus is neither guilty of cruelty, or stupid, for telling every generation for 2000 years to make this their first priority;
for every generation has the opportunity to enter the Kingdom, which is in them, and does not come with outward or visible sign.
He said: For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels;
and then he shall reward every man according to his works. (Not just a particular generation.)
Some standing here shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.
Those not purified, to see Jesus' coming in them before death, see him as they die, as all peoples, all nations, all generations do.
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: (also, the Jews 2000 years ago)
and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
2000 years ago, to the Jewish High Priest and the Pharisees at his trial, Jesus said..
you will see the Son of Man sitting
at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
This is not a particular generation in our time or later.
Heaven appears to our spiritual eye as in a mist or in clouds - so, his coming is on the clouds of heaven, within the hearts of purified believers.
He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
Notice he appears to bring salvation. But he doesn't bring salvation to the whole world - only to those waiting for him.
Neither is his appearance to the whole world, only to those who are waiting for him, and who love him by obeying him.
Salvation occurs when He appears within to bring salvation to those who have waited, listened, heard, and obeyed him - those who love him.
Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?"
Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching.
My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. [home in the heart of those who obey]
He who does not love me will not obey my teaching.
On that day [when he appears in you] you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me.
He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him," .
So he only appears to those who have heard him speak commands to them, and have obeyed him -
only to those who love him, as evidenced by those who listen to his voice and keep his commands - only to those who are obedient.
I will come back again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also.
This is the return of Christ. The world does not see it. He returns with the Father. They become one with us - union.
It is a personal experience. This is not the resurrection. He is talking about becoming one with the disciples.
I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you will keep and protect them from evil.
So, Jesus wants to keep us in the world, but to protect us from evil, while in the world- to be sanctified.
Father, I desire that they also whom you have entrusted to me may be with me where I am,
so they may see my glory, which you have given me - your love gift to me - for you loved me before the foundation of the world.
We are physically still in the world, but our consciousness and sight translate to the Kingdom of heaven, a higher dimension.
God is in this same higher dimension; in him we live and move and have our being; who is over all, in all, and through all.
And there we have fellowship with the Father and the Son.
So with obedience to the cross, we can enter paradise while alive on earth, to be there forever, even after the second death.
When he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
Everyone with this hope purifies himself, just as he is pure.
Only those who are like him, pure, will see him appear.
The deficit sects teach that you don't have to be pure, you don't have to be perfect, you don't have to be holy.
If, as they incorrectly teach, he came back to the whole world, none of them would see him, because they are not pure.
But if one has the hope of purity and seeing their savior, they will purify their hearts, by faith and grace, to see God appear within their hearts.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Without a pure heart, you will never see God.
He appears to the purified heart of a believer - he is seen. This is his second appearance - this time to the purified in heart.
For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness,"made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge
of the glory of God in the face of Christ. Christ appears in your heart; you see, and have knowledge of, the glory of God.
The day star rises in your hearts. .
Until the light rises and Christ appears, you must listen, hear, and obey the word within your heart.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Who do you think James was writing to? He was writing to those in the churches, still captive to sin.
Notice he says draw near to God. God is not found in sect meetings. God is not found in reading scriptures.
You must go to him. You must wait on him - listen silently, with the humility of a sinner in need of his changing power - grace.
To be purified, you must come to him, listen for him, hear him, and obey him - repetitively, over time.
You are purified by faith in Jesus - faith in his convictions being true, and faith enough to obey his commands.
When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
When Christ appears in you, bringing his kingdom, you will appear there also - in the kingdom within you - in glory.
How are you going to appear in glory, unless it is inside of your heart, to your mind's eye? Hidden from the world.
Other than the fruit of the Spirit, the world does not see Christ;
for such a person's life in hidden in Christ Jesus.
This mystery .. is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
I will dwell in them, And walk in them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.
The end of grace is to bring the completion of salvation, at the second appearance of Jesus Christ, but only within those who have purified themselves and who have been looking for the blessed hope of his coming. His appearance within us, union with God, salvation, and entrance to the Kingdom of God, all occur simultaneously. Salvation is to be witnessed by seeing Jesus bring it. Over twenty men and women on this site, write of seeing their savior, and having fellowship with Christ and the Father. Think about it: God would never leave our salvation subject to conjecture, some other person's opinion, reading scripture to see if you qualify, trying to guess which ritual is important, etc. God is not a god of confusion. God would make our salvation absolutely clear, without any doubt, without any reservations, with no questions left; and so he has created a salvation to be experienced which includes purity, judgment, destruction of the residual man of sin within you by the brightness of his coming, union with Christ and the Father, union with all past saints made perfect, the entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven, seeing the Glory of God, and fellowship with the Father and Christ - an unmistakable salvation, clearly seen, clearly felt, clearly understood. (For more detail on salvation that occurs on the day of the Lord, see Francis Howgill's writings.)
And from George Fox's Journal: written in 1656 (Click to see who Fox was.)
While I was in prison here, the Baptists and fifth-monarchy-men prophesied, that this year Christ would come, and reign upon earth a thousand years. And they looked upon this reign to be outward: when he had come inwardly in the hearts of his people, to reign and rule; these "believers" would not receive him in their hearts. So they failed in their prophecy and expectation, and did not have the possession of him. But Christ has come, and does dwell and reign in the hearts of his people. Thousands, at the door of whose hearts he has been knocking, have opened to him; and he has come in, and does sup with them, and they with him; the heavenly supper with the heavenly and spiritual man. So many of these Baptists and monarchy-people became the greatest enemies to the followers of Christ, but he reigns in the hearts of his saints over all their envy.
And from the writings of another early Quaker, William Dewsbury: (written in 1655)
“Thus through the righteous law of the
Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus," Dewsbury says, "I
was and am made free from the body of sin
and death; and through these great tribulations, my garments are washed and made
white in the blood of the Lamb, who has led
me into the new Jerusalem, where no one
enters that works abomination or speaks a lie,
but those whose name is written in the Lamb's book
of life. Here my soul now feeds upon the
tree of life, which I had so long hungered and
thirsted after, that stands in the paradise of God. Here there is no more curse nor night;
but the Lord God and the Lamb are my light
and life forever and ever! And I witness that
I am regenerated and born again of the immortal seed, and having partaken of the first
resurrection, over such the second death has no power."
Dewsbury clearly speaks above of: 1) having gone through the great tribulation, 2) being translated into the Kingdom of God, being in New Jerusalem, and 3) feeding from the tree of life that stands in the paradise of God. Thus all the promises of the scriptures he witnessed as having been fulfilled.
From George Fox's Letter #172:
So everyone of us, that has come to the seed of God, that bruises the serpent's head, that led man from God, who is the prince of the world, the prince of darkness, and the prince of the air, the father of lies, a murderer from the beginning; the corrupter of mankind, the author of the separation from God, and the original of sin, the beginning of it, which led man from his dominion over the handiworks of God; which the royal seed Christ, destroys, and renews man again in the image of God, and brings him again to his dominion over the handiworks of God. And this hundreds of thousands are now witnessing; by which they come to be kings, and redeemed from the earth and come to be made kings upon the earth, in the image of God, over the handiworks of God, in the wisdom by which they were created.
And the Apostles further testified to living in his Kingdom too:
Paul said: Who has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.
Paul again: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.
So Paul (and others) had been delivered from sin, had been translated into the Kingdom of Christ, and were
living in union with Christ.
John said: I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ.
(John had been in tribulation, and was in the Kingdom)
For his return is to purified believers, in all generations, who have prepared the way of the Lord, making his beaten paths straight, by repentance through grace, to crucify the sinful nature. Those who belong to Christ Jesus
have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. .
The kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display,
Nor will people say, Look! Here ! or, See, there! For behold,
the kingdom of God is within you and among you . Luke 17:20-21
Repentance and the cross yield purity and then to see God!
He, who has been hidden within, is revealed; the Revelation of Jesus Christ, within the purified believer.
The second death exerts no power or authority over those who have crucified the sinful nature; they shall be ministers of God and of Christ (the Messiah), and they shall rule along with Him a thousand years.
The Jews rejected Christ, expecting a physical King to appear. Similarly, one hundred generations of Christendom have rejected listening to and obeying Christ within them, expecting an outward appearance; expecting Christ to physically appear to be King of the whole world, thereby missing the possibility of preparing for his inward, individual spiritual appearance in them. This is a major deception with disastrous consequences to those so deceived. Prize your time; use it wisely, for it is finite. For more on this subject, see The Second Appearance of Jesus.
The gospel, promising the Kingdom by repentance, has been ignored. Instead, life-long sin is preached, which is a devastating deficit in all the sects; a 180° departure from righteousness; not even aiming at, much less approaching John the Baptist's righteousness, of whom the least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater. Let no one think themselves unworthy to enter the Kingdom by repentance, for even the prostitutes and tax collectors were entering in Jesus' time. . The Holy Way...the simple ones and fools, shall not err in it and lose their way.. His grace is sufficient for all men and women to enter, but first, we must all repent.
In the past God overlooked ..ignorance,
but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.
We must be brought under the control of God by repentance.
Awake to righteousness, and sin not;
for some have not the knowledge of God:
I speak this to your shame.
Everyone talks about how Jesus is so forgiving; true, but after forgiveness he says, sin no more!
To the adulteress: I do not condemn you either. Go on your way and sin no more.
To one healed: Behold, you are made whole: sin no more least a worse thing come unto you.
Jesus said, If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell. .
He doesn't want us to maim ourselves. He is only illustrating how serious continuing to sin is.
Jesus is desperately trying to tell us that to enter the Kingdom and escape hell, sin has to go.
He knew false ministers with false gospels promising freedom to continue to sin would arise after he left.
Changes in our heart through the missing cross to purity can take away the desire of the hand, foot, and eye to cause us to sin.
Sinners can't live in heaven, or heaven would be Hell. Only former sinners go to heaven. Until all sin is removed from you heart, until you are purified; you cannot be in the company of God-
for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? . No one wants children, who lie, or steal, or envy, or get angry, or constantly want something more, or are drunken, or are violent, or wrongfully use others, or cheat - or are disobedient to one's commands.
He that says to the wicked, 'You are righteous;'
him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him;
Everyone will eventually be cursed, who lied, saying that with belief in Jesus, you are righteous while still locked in sin.
Everyone has to be purified first, and it can not be instantly done on earth or in the next life. We must learn to loathe and hate our selfish motives and desires before they can be removed to purify us; or else we would drift back into the same selfish patterns of sin. Everyone is going to be purified; voluntarily in this life by the cross, or involuntarily in the next life with far greater pain, difficulty, and loss. See Is there Hope for All for details.
The Kingdom's availability to us has been forgotten; and godless men's false doctrines deny the necessity of repentance, which prevent our entry into the Kingdom and leave us captive to sin. For today's deficit sects have a form of godliness, but deny the power of God to change us to a sinless state. The deficit sects have lost the true gospel of Christ and the cross of Christ, both of which are the power of God. So, all of deficit sects are in the ditch, led by there by blind guides. Christ's blood sacrifice and gospel have been trampled under foot by these deficit sects that have made peace with the enemy; some even denying there is an enemy; but all surrendering their members to sin as inevitable, without fighting the good fight of faith; sin being licensed by false grace. Jesus said, 'I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.' . By betraying their members to a life-long slavery to sin, these deficit sects crown sin the master, excluding Christ as Master, for one cannot serve two masters. Within the deficit sects, the man of sin rules. -- Come out of her my people, and I will be a father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters.
These 30,000 so-called Christian sects are Babylon painted to look like Zion, deceiving all the nations into her spiritual adultery and fornications. The whole world follows this beast with horns like a lamb, with many names, and power given him to extend his authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation. The deficit sects pretend that Christ is their husband; but these false churches are the whore of Babylon, which substitute superstitious ritual for obedience to Christ's commands to repent, his teachings, his requirements, his warnings, his required holiness, his gospel, his Kingdom, his promised freedom from sin, and his cross of self-denial - the Missing Cross to Purity. This mystery of iniquity is permitted by God to test the elect's commitment to truth. (See Babylon and Apostasy for more).
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil,
who put darkness for light,
and light for darkness.
Jesus died in his love for us, so that he could purify us for himself a peculiar people,
zealous for good works, who show the power and love of God to the world;
so he could free us from sin, to truly be our ruling Lord and King in word and deed;
so we could be changed to be like Him, in this life, by the way of the cross;
and so we could participate in the divine nature,
in union with Him and God,
in His Kingdom of Heaven, while on earth, and then forever.
All of these these wonderful promises require repentance to purity,
for it is only in likeness that union can occur.
Almost everyone in Christendom missed it. But for us, it is not too late - to believe the power of the true good news,
and realize the power of the cross,
to enter the Kingdom of Heaven in this life through repentance:
to realize the good news that Jesus came to preach! Victory over sin and death is available.
Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.
Rouse yourselves and keep awake,
and strengthen and invigorate what remains
and is on the point of dying;
for I have not found a thing that you have done
meeting the requirements
of My God
or perfect in His sight.
Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
Paul said: "to become wise, one must first acknowledge they are ignorant."
Unless you know that you are a slave to sin, you will never get free.
So the first step to freedom from sin is to look at your slavery.
From the voice of the Lord: "Those who refuse to look at their slavery say, 'Church me.'"
It comes down to a choice of how you want to live:
- as a selfish human in slavery to your anger, pride, lusts, passions and pleasures with no lasting satisfaction, or
- rather be dedicated to actions and words that are pure, true, noble, clean, peaceful, joyful, beneficial to others around you, and full of love for your creator - while in union with your creator in his Kingdom- with him loving and treasuring you in return, to your eternal satisfaction?
And thanks be to God, the record is preserved for us how George Fox and hundreds of thousands "children of the light" uncovered the true good news, always before us, but hidden by lies, and claimed the power again to enter the Kingdom of God. George Fox reestablished the true gospel, the power of God, that had been lost for 1260 years and was later lost again, even by the Quakers he founded. For those of you who want to see and hear your Savior teach you personally, leading you through repentance and the cross to union with God in the Kingdom of Heaven, the below is presented.For he calls us all to repentance, Christhood, and the Kingdom of Heaven. Let those who can hear, hear!
The gospel of repentance and remission of sins to the Kingdom, with the missing cross, the Power of God, is:
1) God's peace to you. Jesus Christ, the savior of all men, but specially those who believe his true message, does not condemn us, but with our sorrow for the past and resolve to do better, rather says peace and extends to us forgiveness for whatever the past. If you seriously wish to please God, whatever the price, he asks you to trust Christ to lead you to purity and then heaven on earth; for the Kingdom of God is within you and does not come with signs to be observed or visible display, in which is everlasting peace and joy.
He doesn't just forgive sin; he destroys it in us - if we let him and trust him.
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, [manifested in us] that he might destroy the works of the devil.
We are led through repentance to the truth and the Kingdom of Heaven by the teaching, purifying process of grace.
Grace, the unmerited favor of God, is not instant and is not salvation, as widely believed.
From the Voice of the Lord, regarding instant salvation by grace: "It is twisted, pernicious lies."
Grace is a teaching process of repentance from lusts to godly living in purity, bringing salvation and seeing God.
Grace is correctly defined by the Apostle Paul in Titus 2:11-14:
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world,
looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing
of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ;
who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity,
and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
One who still sins might mistakenly argue they are redeemed from all iniquity, but not that grace has purified them!
From the Voice of the Lord: "Where there is obedience, there is righteousness; without it, you have World War II."
Even Adolph Hitler said Jesus was his Lord and Savior.
Does anyone believe Hitler, saying Jesus was his Lord, made him his Lord? I pray not. Saying does not make it so.
Does anyone believe Hitler was a sinner saved by grace? I pray not. To be saved, is to be purified by grace. Tit 2:14
See True Grace vs. False Grace for additional doctrine regarding grace.
If you think saying or believing Jesus is Lord, or baptism is all that is needed, see the Missing Cross.
He that says to the wicked, 'You are righteous;'
him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him;
Let everyone who names the name of the Lord give up all iniquity and stand aloof from it.
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Having these promises, dearly beloved,
let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit,
perfecting holiness in the fear of God. (The task is to perfect holiness! But trust Christ to lead you perfectly!)
The Holy Way. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for the redeemed;
the wayfaring men, yes, the simple ones and fools, shall not err in it and lose their way.
That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life. (Perfect love expels all fear. )
He has given us his very great and precious promises,
so that through them you may participate in the divine nature
and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. (The reward for completion of the task.)
This is the way, walk ye in it.
You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
2) Repentance to purity and union with Christ and God in the Kingdom while on earth is:
- You must seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, and all else will be added.
(You must make this your life's first priority- to obtain the Kingdom and His righteousness within you,
and then all your material needs will also be supplied by God.)
Seek the Lord and His strength; yearn for and seek His face, to be in His presence continually!
His strength is the power to change you, to purify you! In the Kingdom, you are in his presence continually!
The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him.
- For at least an hour, on a daily basis, in private, get quiet,
and think on the name of Jesus
But as many as received him, he gave to them power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
Before Christ, to receive the favor of God, you had to closely follow the Law; God ignored those who ignored his Law.
Jesus made it possible for all with regret for whatever our past sins and belief in Him to approach God to receive his purifying power.
John says receiving him or just belief on the name of Jesus gives us the power to become sons of God, not be sons of God.
This is how to use that power to become a son of God. His name is the power to access purification and then his leading.
Because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
Why Silence? Because he said after praying the Lord's prayer: Do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
Be still, and know that I am God;
It is good that one should hope and wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.
