HELL...

 THE MAJORITY OF CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THAT HELL IS BRIMSTONE AND FIRE.

 THIS IS NOT BIBLICAL  AND CAN CREATE A LOT OF CONFUSION.

IN TODAY'S STUDY WE WILL LEARN THE CORRECT MEANING OF THE WORD "HELL".

LET'S GO TO THE WORD.

Revelations 20:10  And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet (the two offices of Satan) are, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever.

SATAN'S SENTENCE IS TO TURN INTO ASHES FROM WITHIN (EZEKIEL 28:18-19).

ASHES = A HEBRAISM, AND IT MEANS FOREVER AND EVER.

WHEN SOMETHING TURNS INTO ASHES IT IS FOREVER.

CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE = A FIGURE OF SPEECH.

HE WILL BE BLOTTED OUT.

LET'S SKIP TO VERSES 14-15.

20:14   And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

GOD IS TELLING US HERE THAT THE LAKE OF FIRE IS THE SECOND DEATH.

WHAT IS THE SECOND DEATH ? THE DEATH OF THE SOUL.

20:15    And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE ONES THAT WERE NOT IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WERE BLOTTED OUT ; THEY CEASED TO EXIST.

LET'S GO TO REVELATION 21:8.

21:8    But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers (worshipped other gods), and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone ; which is the second death.

AND AGAIN, HE EXPLAINS WHAT FIRE AND BRIMSTONE IS.

LET'S FINISH OUR STUDY WITH MATTHEW 10:28.

Matthew 10:28    And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul : but rather fear Him Which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

ABLE TO DESTROY BOTH SOUL AND BODY IN HELL = CAN CAUSE BOTH SOUL AND BODY TO PERISH (TURN INTO ASHES FROM WITHIN = BLOTTED OUT), IN THE GREEK.

"Hell" is the English rendering of two different Greek words in the New Testament.

1. Gehenna.  Geena in the Greek. This is the transliteration of the Hebrew Gai Hinnom, i.e. the valley of Hinnom, where were the fires through which children were passed in the worship of Moloch.

Gehenna was the garbage pit for the sacrificial remains outside Jerusalem.

2.  Hades.  It is used by the Greeks for the unseen world.

The Greek Hades is is human in its origin and comes down to us laden with centuries of development, in which it has acquired new senses, meanings, and usages.

NOTE:  We are serving a loving God...Heaven would not be pleasurable and happy, if we watch the ones that didn't make it in eternity suffer day in and out in a burning lake.

Besides, we are all going to be in our spiritual body (I Cor. 15:35-52), and it does not burn, feel sick, or age.

Always check things out before you believe anything you hear.  God always makes sense.

GOD BLESS

THE TARES


                            THE SUBJECT OF TODAY'S STUDY IS "THE TARES".

      WHO ARE THE TARES ?  WHY JESUS WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT THEM ?

LET'S GO TO MATTHEW CHAPTER 13.

Matthew 13:24    Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field :

13:25    But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

HIS ENEMY = SATAN.

TARES = KENITES (SATAN'S OFFSPRING).

13:26    But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

EVERYTIME YOU DO GOD'S WORK THE KENITES WILL ALWAYS BE HERE TO TRY TO STOP YOU.

13:27    So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, 'Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field ? from whence then hath it tares ?

THE TARES ARE THE ONES THAT GOVERN THE WORLD.  YOU CAN RECOGNIZE THEM BY THEIR FRUIT.  

THEY WILL MOCK GOD AND TRY THE BEST THEY CAN TO TAKE GOD OUT OF EVERYTHING. ON THE OTHER HAND THEY CAN DECEIVE YOU BY PLAYING RELIGION.  THEY WILL CHANGE THE WORD JUST A LITTLE BIT SO THE WHOLE MEANING IS LOST. SATAN DID THIS WHEN HE TEMPTED CHRIST (MATT. 4).

13:28   He said unto them, 'An enemy hath done this.' The servants said unto him, 'Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up ?'

13:29    But he said, 'Nay ; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

JESUS IS TELLING YOU TO LEAVE THEM ALONE.

13:30    Let both grow together until the harvest : and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, 'Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them : but gather the wheat into my barn.' ' "

GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF THEM ON JUDGMENT DAY.

LET'S SKIP TO VERSE 37.

HE IS EXPLAINING TO YOU WHO THE TARES ARE.

13:37   He answered and said unto them, "He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man ;

13:38   The field is the world ; the good seed are the children of the kingdom ; but the tares are the children of the wicked one ;

WICKED ONE = THE DEVIL.

13:39    The enemy that sowed them is the devil ; the harvest is the end of the world ; and the reapers are the angels.

JESUS IS TELLING YOU THAT THE ENEMY IS SATAN, AND THE TARES ARE HIS CHILDREN.

13:40    As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire ; so shall it be in the end of the world.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE TARES WILL CEASE TO EXIST ON JUDGMENT DAY.

IN JOHN 8:42-47, JESUS IDENTIFIES THE KENITES. 

IN VERSE 31, HE TELLS YOU THAT THEY CALL THEMSELVES JEWS BUT ARE NOT.

THEY WERE AFTER TO KILL HIM ; THESE WERE THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS OF THE TIME.

John 8:42    Jesus said unto them, "If God were your Father, ye would love Me : for I proceeded forth and came from God ; neither came I of Myself, but He sent Me.

8:43    Why do ye not understand My speech ? even because ye cannot hear My word.

YOU DON'T HAVE EARS TO HEAR BECAUSE OF YOUR FATHER (SATAN).

8:44    Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own : for he is a liar, and the father of it.

WHO WAS THE FIRST MURDERER ? CAIN  (HE MURDERED HIS BROTHER ABEL).

CAIN'S FATHER IS SATAN AFTER HE SEDUCED EVE.

8:45    And because I tell you the truth, ye believe Me not.

8:46   Which of you convinceth Me of sin ? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe Me ?

THEY LIKE TO TWIST SCRIPTURE AND CHANGE THE WORD.

8:47    He that is of God heareth God's words : ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God."

A KENITE CAN BE CONVERTED IF HE  CHOOSES TO DO SO.

LET'S FINISH OUR STUDY WITH I CHRONICLES 2:55.

I Chronicles 2:55   And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez ; the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and Suchathites.  These are the Kenites that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab.

THESE WERE NOT THE SCRIBES OF JUDAH.

KENITE MEANS THE SON OF CAIN.

GOD BLESS

TITHES AND OFFERINGS


                        The subject in todays' study is : TITHES AND OFFERINGS

The purpose of this study is to help people determined the difference between TITHES AND OFFERINGS.

There are many deceivers in this world that prey on each individual's weakness.

God does not beg, and He will never demand from an individual that has a very limited income to pay ten percent from money he doesn't have.

LET'S GO TO THE WORD.

Deuteronomy 26:12    When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled ;

TITHES = IT MEANS TEN PERCENT OF YOUR EARNINGS.

HOWEVER, AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING THE PRIESTHOOD WAS ALSO THE GOVERNMENT.

EVERY THIRD YEAR THEY TOOK TITHING FOR INSURANCE TO PROTECT THE NATION (something like social security).

LET'S GO TO THE MINOR PROPHETS.

Malachi 3:8   Will a man rob God ? Yet ye have robbed Me. But ye say, 'Wherein have we robbed Thee ?'  In tithes and offerings.

IF YOU TITHE TO THE WRONG CHURCH YOU ARE ROBBING GOD.

3:9   Ye are cursed with a curse : for ye have robbed Me, even this whole nation.

3:10   Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in Mine house, and prove Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

MEAT = HIS WORD.

THE PURPOSE OF TITHING IS FOR GOD'S WORD TO BE TAUGHT IN HIS HOUSE.

IF A CHURCH TEACHES HIS WORD (NOT MEN'S DOCTRINES AND TRADITIONS), IT WILL BE BLESSED.

LET'S GO TO THE BOOK OF MARK.

Mark 12:38   And He said unto them in His doctrine,

"Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the market places,

12:39   And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms of feasts :

THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES WERE THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS OF THE TIME.

BEWARE OF ANY RELIGIOUS LEADER WHO LIKES TO PLAY CHURCH.

12:40    Which devour windows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers : these shall receive greater damnation."

IN OTHER WORDS, THEY RIP THEM OFF AND TAKE THEIR MONEY.

THEY PRETEND TO PRAY AND TAKE THEIR MONEY.

12:41    And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury : and many that were rich cast in much.

12:42   And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing,

SHE PUT IN VERY LITTLE.

12:43   And He called unto Him His disciples, and saith unto them, "Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury :

THIS POOR WIDOW GAVE EVERYTHING SHE HAD.

12:44    For all they did cast in of their abundance ; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living."

GOD PAYED ATTENTION TO THAT WIDOW AND HE DID TAKE CARE OF HER.

IT SHOWS HER FAITH.

LET'S END OUR STUDY WITH II CORINTHIANS 9.

II Corinthians 9:6    But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly ; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

9:7    Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give ; not grudgingly, or of necessity : for God loveth a cheerful giver.

GOD BELIEVES IN EQUALITY. IN GOD'S EYES, IT'S THE SAME IF A PERSON CAN TITHE VERY LITTLE OR A LOT.

YOU GIVE TO GOD WHAT YOU CAN.  HOWEVER, IT HAS TO COME FROM THE HEART; YOU HAVE TO WANT TO DO IT, NOT PUSHED.


SUMMARY :  GOD EXPECTS YOU TO TITHE TO A CHURCH THAT TEACHES YOU HIS WORD, NOT THEIRS.

THE TEN PERCENT TITHES WAS SET, BECAUSE, THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS WERE ALSO THE GOVERNMENT.

YOU TITHE WHATEVER YOU CAN ; DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO MONEY HUNGRY PREACHERS.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TITHES AND OFFERINGS.

TITHES YOU PAY TO THE CHURCH SO GOD'S WORD CAN BE TAUGHT.

CHARITY ARE OFFERINGS.

IN OTHER WORDS, WHEN YOU FEED THE HUNGRY, OR HELP A HOSPITAL WITH ILL CHILDREN, YOU ARE MAKING A LOVE OFFERING.

GOD BLESS

THE NEPHILIM (FALLEN ANGELS)

The progeny of the fallen angels with the daughters of Adam are called in Genesis 6, Nephilim, which means fallen ones (from naphal, to fall).  What these beings were can be gathered only from scripture. They were evidently great in size, as well great in wickedness. They were superhuman, abnormal beings ; and their destruction was necessary for the preservation of the human race, and for the faithfulness of God's word (Genesis 3:15).

This was why the flood was brought upon the world of the ungodly (II Peter 2:5) as prophesied by Enoch (Jude 14).

But we read again of the Nephilim in Numbers 13:33 : "there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, which come from the Nephilim".  How, it may be asked could this be, if they were destroyed in the flood ?  The answer is contained in Genesis 6:4, where we read :

"There were Nephilim in the earth in those days (in the days of Noah) ; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became the mighty men (Gibbor in the Hebrew) which were of old, men of renown (who got a name and were renowned for their ungodliness).

So that "after that" (after the flood), there was a second irruption of these fallen angels, evidently smaller in number and more limited in area, for they were for the most part confined to Canaan, and were in fact known as "the nations of Canaan". It was for the destruction of these, that the sword of Israel was necessary, as the flood had been before.

In Genesis 14:5 they were already known as "Rephaim and "Emim", and had established themselves at Ashteroth Karnaim and Shaveh Kiriathaim.

In chapter 15:18-21 they are named : Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, and the Amorites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites".

These were to be cut off, and driven out, and utterly destroyed (Deut. 20:17, Josh 3:10). But Israel failed in this (Josh. 13:13, 15:63, 16:10, 17:18, Judges 1:19, 20, 28, 29, 30-36, 2:1-5, 3:1-7), and we know not how many got away to other countries to escape the general destruction.

It is certain that the second irruption took place before Genesis 14, for there the Rephaim were mixed up with the five nations or peoples, which included Sodom and Gomorrha, and were defeated by the four kings under Chedorlaomer.

Anak was a noted descendant of the Nephilim ; and Rapha was another, giving their names to different clans.

Their strength is seen in "the giant cities of Bashan" today ; and we know not how far they may have been utilized by Egypt in the construction of buildings, which is still an unsolved problem.

If these Nephilim, and their branch of Rephaim, were associated with Egypt, we have an explanation of the problem which has for ages perplexed all engineers, as to how those huge stones and monuments were brought together.

Moreover, we have in these mighty men, the "men of renown", the explanation of the origin of the Greek mythology. That mythology was no mere invention of the human brain, but it grew out of the traditions, and memories, and legends of the doings of that mighty race of beings ; and was gradually evolved out of the "heroes" of Genesis 6:4.  The fact that they were supernatural in their origin formed an easy step to their being regarded as the demi-gods of the Greeks.

NOTE:  Satan's plan was to prevent Christ of having a clean birth.

THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH


                      THE FIRST DISTRACTION OF THE EARTH & THE NEW EARTH

Psalms 104:1    Bless the LORD, O my soul.

                         O LORD my God, Thou art very great ;

                        Thou art clothed with honor and majesty.

            104:2   Who coverest Thyself with light as with a garment :

                         Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain :

                        COVEREST = PRIME OF CLOUD = ATMOSPHERE.

            104:3   Who layeth the beams of His chambers in the waters :

                         Who maketh the clouds His chariot :

                         Who maketh upon the wings of the wind :

                        HIS CHARIOT = HIS TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE (EZEKIEL 1).

                        WIND = RUACH IN THE HEBREW = HIS SPIRIT.

             104:4   Who maketh His angels spirits ; 

                          His ministers a flaming fire :

                          HIS ANGELS = HIS MESSENGERS. ANGELS ARE SPIRITS, AND ARE                                       CALLED SO IN HEB. 1:7, 14, I PETER 3:19.

                          HIS MINISTERS = HIS SERVANTS.

              104:5   Who laid the foundations* of the earth,

                           That it should not be removed forever.

                           THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH = THIS EARTH IS MILLIONS OF                                     YEARS OLD.

                           SEE NOTE BELOW.

               104:6   Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment :

                            The waters stood above the mountains.

                           WHEN THE FIRMAMENT (OZONE) FELL, THE OCEANS WERE FORMED                             AND THE WATER STOOD ABOVE THE MOUNTAINS.

                           THIS WAS THE FIRST DESTRUCTION (THE TIME OF THE DINOSAURS).

                           THE EARTH BECAME VOID AND WITHOUT FORM.

                           MAKE A NOTE OF ISAIAH 45, MATTHEW 13.

                104:7  At Thy rebuke they fled ;

                           At the voice of Thy thunder they hasted away.

                           THE WATERS FLED AND THE SPIRIT MOVED UPON THE WATER.

                104:8  They go up by the mountains ; they go down by the valleys

                            Unto the place which Thou hast founded for them.

                104:9   Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over ;

                             That they turn not again to cover the earth.

                             HE PROMISED NOT TO DESTROY THE EARTH AGAIN BY WATER.

                104:10   He sendeth the springs into the valleys,

                              Which run among the hills.

                104:11    They give drink to every beast of the field :

                               The wild asses quench their thirst.

                104:12    By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation,

                               Which sing among the branches.

                104:13    He watereth the hills from His chambers :

                               The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Thy works.

                104:14   He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle,

                              And herb for the service of man :

                             That He may bring forth food out of the earth ;

                             MAN = HUMANITY.

                104:15   And wine that maketh glad the heart of man,

                              And oil to make his face to shine,

                             And bread which strengtheneth man's heart.

                            WINE IS PROVIDED FOR MAN.

                             MAN = WEAK, MORTAL MAN.

               104:16   The trees of the LORD are full of sap ;

                             The cedars of Lebanon, which He hath planted ;

                            TREES ARE SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE.

                            THE TREE OF LIFE IS SYMBOLIC OF CHRIST.

                            THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL IS SATAN.

                            CEDARS OF LEBANON = SYMBOLIC OF GOD'S ELECT.

                            LET'S SKIP TO VERSE 26.

               104:26  There go the ships :

                            There is that Leviathan, whom Thou hast made to play therein.

                            LEVIATHAN = ONE OF SATAN'S NAMES.

               104:27  These wait all upon Thee ;   That Thou mayest give them their meat

                             in due season.

                104:28  That thou givest them they gather :

                             Thou openest Thine hand, they are filled with good.

                             HE TAKES CARE OF NATURE.

                104:29    Thou hidest Thy face, they are troubled :

                                Thou takest away their breath, they die,

                                And return to their dust.           

                            WHEN YOU HIDE YOUR FACE, THEY ARE DISMAYED :

                             WHEN YOU TAKE THEIR BREATH (THE FLESH MAN), THEY DIE,

                             AND THE FLESH RETURNS TO THE EARTH.

               104:30   Thou sendest forth Thy spirit, they are created :

                             And Thou renewest the face of the earth.

                             HE IS GOING TO REJUVINATE THE EARTH WHEN GOD THE FATHER                                   WILL MAKE HIS HOME HERE (REV. 21).

                              GOD BLESS

                           THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD. 

To arrive at the true meaning of this expression, we must note that there are two words translated "foundation" in the New Testament : 1. Themelios, and 2. Katabole.

The noun katabole, derived from, and cognate with the verb, ought to be translated "disruption", or "ruin".

The remarkable thing is that in all occurrences (except Heb. 11:11) the word is connected with "the world" (kosmos), and therefore the expression should be rendered "the disruption (or ruin) of the world", clearly referring to the condition indicated in Genesis 1:2, and described in 

II Peter 3:5-6.  For the earth was not created tohu (Isaiah 45:18), but became so, as stated in the Hebrew of Genesis 1:2, and confirmed by II Peter 3:6, where "the world that then was by the word of God" (Genesis 1:1), perished, and "the heavens and the earth which are now, by the same word" were created (Genesis 2:4), and are "kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment" (II Peter 3:7), which shall usher in the "new heavens and the new earth" of 

II Peter 3:13.

REFERENCES : DR. BULLINGER, BIBLICAL SCHOLAR, HISTORIAN, ARCHAEOLOGIST.

WHAT HAPPENED TO CAUSE THIS DESTRUCTION ?

Satan fell from grace. His job was to guard the Mercy Seat, but he became proud and powerful, and thought he should be God (Ezekiel 28). When he fell from grace he took one third of God's children with him (Rev. 12:4).  God did not want to destroy His children, therefore, He decided to destroy that age.  Everyone is born innocent without any memory, and they have a choice to make: follow God or Satan.

THE RAPTURE THEORY


 Most churches today believe in the "Rapture", but, is it biblical ?  You see it don't matter what religious leaders believe, it matters what God says on the matter.

Many people are not familiar with the original languages of the Bible ; The word was written in Hebrew and Greek.  Although the translators did the best they could, they made some mistakes.

The word "rapture" is not in the Word.

LET'S GO TO THE WORD.

THE SUBJECT HERE IS : WHERE ARE THE DEAD ?

I Thessalonians 4:13    But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

ASLEEP = DEAD.

4:14    For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him.

IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOU BELIEVE CHRIST DIED AND ROSE AGAIN, SO DID THE ONES THAT DIED IN JESUS.  

THEY ARE NOT IN A HOLE ON THE GROUND, THEY ARE WITH CHRIST.

4:15    For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them which are asleep.

WHY ?  BECAUSE THEY ARE ALREADY GONE.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE ONES THAT ARE ALREADY PASSED ON ARE WITH CHRIST TO BEGIN WITH.  

MAKE A NOTE OF ECCL.12:7.

4:16    For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God : and the dead in Christ shall rise first :

 THE DEAD IN CHRIST (THE ONES WHO OVERCAME) SHALL RISE FIRST BECAUSE, THEY ARE ALREADY WITH HIM.

4:17    Then we which are alive, and remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air : and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

THIS IS THE VERSE THAT MOST PEOPLE GET WRONG.

THE GREEK IS VERY DIFFERENT THAN THE ENGLISH.

THE AIR = THE BREATH OF AIR BODY IN THE GREEK (NOT SKY).

IN OTHER WORDS, THE ONES THAT HAVE PASSED ON WILL MEET THE ONES HERE, BOTH CHANGED INTO THEIR SPIRITUAL BODIES (BREATH OF AIR BODY).

MAKE A NOTE OF I COR. 15:38-52.

LET'S GO TO II THESSALONIANS 2.

II Thessalonians 2:1    Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him,

PAUL KNEW HIS FIRST LETTER IN REGARDS OF THE SECOND COMING, MIGHT CONFUSE SOME, THEREFORE HE TRIED TO MAKE IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE FOR US TO UNDERSTAND.

2:2    That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

2:3    Let no man deceive you by any means : for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.

CHRIST IS NOT RETURNING UNTIL THE GREAT APOSTASI HAPPENS.

WHAT IS THE GREAT APOSTASI ? THE GREAT APOSTASI IS, TO CHANGE FROM WORSHIPPING THE TRUE CHRIST TO WORSHIPPING SATAN THINKING HE IS CHRIST.

THE SON OF PERDITION = APOLLYON IN THE GREEK = SATAN IS THE ONLY ONE WHO IS SENTENCE TO PERISH (EZEKIEL 28).  JUDGMENT HAS NOT HAPPENED FOR ANYONE ELSE.

2:4    Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped ; so that he as God sitteth in the Temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

MAKE A NOTE OF DANIEL 11:36-37.

THAT IS WORSHIPPED = OTHER RELIGIONS.

IN OTHER WORDS, HE PUTS HIMSELF ABOVE GOD AND ABOVE OTHER RELIGIONS.

HE WILL SIT IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD IN JERUSALEM, CLAIMING TO BE GOD.

2:5    Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things ?

2:6    And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in this time.

WATCH THE KENITES (SATAN'S OFFSPRING).

MAKE A NOTE OF JOHN 8:42-44.

2:7    For the mystery of iniquity doth already work : only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

WHO NOW LETTETH WILL LET = HOLD FAST = KATECHO IN THE GREEK. IT IS A TRANSITIVE VERB AND AN OBJECT MUST BE SUPPLIED TOO. IF THE SUBJECT BE SATAN, THE OBJECT MUST BE HIS POSITION IN THE HEAVENLIES (EPH. 6:12), FROM WHICH HE WILL BE EJECTED BY MICHAEL (REV. 12:7-9).

THE CHURCH OR THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS NO ARTICLE. MICHAEL CONTROLS SATAN TILL HE KICKS HIM OUT OF HEAVEN.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE SUBJECT IS NOT THE CHURCH BUT SATAN.

2:8    And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth (His word), and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming :

2:9     Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

2:10    And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish ; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

HIS ONE WORLD SYSTEM WILL DECEIVE THE WHOLE WORLD, INCLUDING MOST CHRISTIANS. 

2:11    And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie :

IN OTHER WORDS, BECAUSE THEY RATHER BE MISLED, GOD WILL SENT THE SPIRIT OF STUPER IN THE GREEK (ROMANS 11:7-10).

THEY REFUSED TO STUDY GOD'S WORD IN DEPTH.

2:12   That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A RAPTURE. WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO FOR HIM.

IF ALL CHRISTIANS LEFT, WHO WILL BE HERE FOR GOD?  SATAN HAS ALL THE OTHERS.

DO NOT BELIEVE MEN'S DOCTRINES AND TRADITIONS.  LISTEN TO WHAT GOD HAS TO SAY, AND CHECK OUT ALL YOUR RELIGIOUS LEADERS.

IF IT'S NOT WRITTEN, IT'S NOT TRUE.

GOD BLESS

PASSOVER NOT EASTER

The Passover Holy Day was kept by the early Christians as Passover not Easter (Acts 12:4).

In the Greek manuscripts is Pasha (not Easter).  Easter being the name of a pagan sex fertility spring goddess.  In Babylonia this spring goddess is identified with the Planet Venus.  In more recent times the Anglo-Saxons brought "Ishtar" into God's sanctuary.

God does not like this in His sanctuary (Exodus 23:13, Deut. 12:3, 32).

The Apostle Paul used the Passover as an object lesson to the Corinthians (I Cor. 5:7-8), in order to teach them how to follow Christ and purge sin from their lives.  Early Romanism in amalgamation with the very ancient spring festival to the fertility goddess instead of the true Passover.  The day was fixed on a Sunday immediately following the 14th day of the Pascal moon.  This holiday "worshipped" the queen of heaven or the sun god at sunrise.

Passover was only replaced by Easter in pagan churches pretending to be Christian.  Jesus has some very harsh warnings about any adoption of pagan practices being used to worship the true God.

"If ye love Me, keep My commandments" (John 8:55).

"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" (John 15:10).

Jesus was the Passover Lamb (John 1:29).

In conclusion I want to emphasize how important is to do your research and find out for yourself what God has to say in this matter, not men.  People make mistakes all the time.  God never does.

GOD BLESS
