Religion or Salvation

Are you religious? Are you saved?  Do your religious beliefs hammer you to the ground, and treat you as you are at fault?  Do your leaders take your private information that you share with them and broadcast it, and condemn you? Does your belief in your faith leave you alone, and without anyone to turn to for help?  When you sought help, where you told what you already knew how to do, but you needed a means to assist you to get it done?  Did they make any physical jesters of assistant in getting it done?  No actual hands-on help to help you accomplish what you know how to do.  Where you paralyzed by others belief systems, and treated as though you were dumb or a misfit?  Did anyone literally reach out to help you to meet your needs?  Well my friend, you might have religion, or you might be in a religious/Cultic environment. The more you try to dig out the harder you are hammered down.  It is for this very reason that we can go to God who has allowed Jesus to be our propitiation for our sins, and  he left us with a comforter that is available to us 24/7.  We do not need permission from anyone, and we are surely free to establish a nurturing, loving well rounded relationship with the "Trinity Triage". Dying Jesus Saved us from repeating the abusive relationship syndrome that has cause us to build more healthy relationships with him.  You do not have to join a click to be accepted or treated righteously by others that believe in Christ Jesus.  All you have to do is accept Christ as your personal Savior, and the rest is an life- long evolving process that will elevate you to your purpose and Gods will for your life concerning Christ Jesus.  Study the word of God, and meditate on it day and night, as you keep a prayer life, you will see that the comforter will lead you to all truth.  This new life hidden in Christ allows you the son-ship so that you could experience an abundant life in him.  

Follow Christ

"As a Christian, I pay tithes and offerings to my home church, as one should..! But every now and again, I also make offerings outside my church to other ministries..I do so only by the leading of the Holy Spirit, not by someone on television that says " send us a thousand dollars and in 48 days you'll see a miracle." NO...I let the Spirit speak, John 10:27, My sheep hear My voice...I have seen blessings and witnessed miracles personally and also with individuals acquainted with me when obeying the spirit".

It Takes Money Pay Your Ministry Bills???
I Cor. 9:1-20
Then why is it hard for you to discern that it takes money for those people's bills, also as they thrust in you to lead them?  Why are they supposed to live off of favor and faith, but you are supposed to live off their contributions to help fund your ministry? I make these statements out of reasoning. For the person that is Treading the wheat, as I have, should I not expect and hope from what the word of God has clearly stated. Oh wretched man/woman, when will we learn that God has his eye on everything. Heb. 4:12. I am appealing to you, because it is God, but I the other person would be doing many other jobs and task, had I had the say so...Let us not deceive ourselves in believing that God is not in this, I have already heard you say that he is, and so have the people. I have heard that I should work and give you your wheat, while I continue to go without. Live off favor. Remember, beloved, God has a place for all of us. Rev.21:7-8. He me to live off of favor, but [I Cor. 13-14] confirms his promise, he has set my arena in a greater place. God bless you, but consider what you will do to the business of gospel as you are slothful in blessing those that have been sent of God.

Our Possessions

If we cannot depart with our possessions, to feed the poor and the needy and the disadvantage, or to rebuild our communities, then how are we going to help the people that God has entrusted in our care? If we receive our funding from across the continents, then how come we are not setting up satellite resource centers throughout America that can be an extension of God's gospel.  Paul and Jan (TBN) went around the world and set up satellites so that some of these connections could be made, Yes, they made money, but they helped to facilitate those areas that was not getting the word of God to them to receive a ray of hope.  What are we doing with our 501 3c status.  We have a head start, when we do not have to give an account of everything we earn.  so why are we telling the people that love and believe in us that because we believed in you, it is your own fault. I know what it feels like to have a plenty, but even with my plenty I gave to less fortunate. What does it profit you to gain the whole world and lose your soul. I would hate to hear God say to me depart from me you sinner of iniquity, that is not what I would make this whole journey to become. I have seen the market of religious business, unless I missed something, it is an opportunity to thrive, but you have to watch out for the pot holes. 
Persecutions will Come, but Let It be found Untrue

Does that mean we are not to have haters, and persecutions, not at all (Mat 5:1-48, focus on 11, 12, 17, key *18-20). The scripture states that you will know them by the fruit they bear, that is they are void of love, but high standards to keep the dispensation of the Law.  The scripture let  us know that Jesus was the fulfillment of the law, and love is the  fulfillment of the law when we love one another (Ro. 13:8-10) In this vast arena of Christianity, we have approximately 2,039 million organized religious groups (Religious Tolerance).  We have 45 million people and about 1/5 of adult population say that they are undecided about a church. We have 1.5 million charitable Christian organizations that reported to bring in 298 billion in revenue 2012.  Yet, the Bible states, one can chase 1000, and two can put 10,000 to flight.  We are powerless over poverty, homelessness, and building loving lasting relationships with our fellowman.  

No Remorse for Human Grief. 


The Newton families have not had much more than three weeks of grieving, and the gun show was scheduled and held in or near their city. There were no remorse, nor did the owner of the gun show feel that he had done anything immorally wrong.  He did not reschedule or change the town, or anything like that.  So in this area, we must ask ourselves are we Attention Deficit Disordered or Attention Hyperactive Deficit Disorder (ADD, or ADHD), or what?  Why do we have no compassion one for the other?  My answer is that we have waxed cold (Rev 3:14-22).   We are not fit for the work of the Kingdom.  We cannot start a spiritual fire with a wet wick in Kerosene.  When we speak, they are mere words that lull people to sleep, and the people are no longer feeling a deliverance of healing, and love but condemnation (Ro. 8:1). 


Lesson of Topic (Priest Levite, and Samaritan)


 My lesson of topic, is about three men, two was ordained and knew the rituals of the work of the gospel.  Then the other man was the off spring of a nation of people that had been left out of the covenant of God, except for the adoption by Jesus Christ. Thank God for Jesus!!!  The two that had the great knowledge and could perform many ceremonial services, and no doubt, well liked, had an encounter with opportunity. This opportunity was in disguise, because it would have cause the two men to get their hands dirty, and maybe their clothes, and required them to give something of themselves. The Bible said in the book of Luke 10:30 that a certain man had a fall, he was overtaking by daily life issues that are the results in many of our inner cities, and areas that have little police attention.  He was robbed and left for HALF DEAD. Now before I go any further, you need to  tell somebody, as long as I have breathe, and the love of Christ I am more than a conquer through Christ Jesus that strengthens me.  Hallelujah!  The two ministers with all the credentials (Priest/Levite) came through and notice the man lying in his half-dead state.  The Priest saw him lying, and he passed to the other side. You need to ask your self are you a member of the other side of the body of Christ that says Oh, somebody else will get him?  The maintenance guy can pick him up on his way passing through?  Some of us want even pick up our children's trash that we watched them put on the seat and the floor in the church, but we are going to let the lady that cleans the church get that. The Levite saw the same man and came over and looked at him, and then passed to the other side. I wonder what made him go over and look at him only to leave a half dead man alone to die. Now the Samaritan came were he was, just the kind of help Jesus gives us. He meets us where we are, administers to our needs, and makes sure that we are ready for the journey ahead.  


Jesus sees Our needs and Look Past our Faults.


He looks past our faults, and find our needs. He makes predestine arrangements for us to be helped without entrapment, and he gives us a free lease on life to go ye therefore, into all the nations, and compel others to hear the good news. Let us return to the story about the Samaritan man, as came to the man's aid, and he had compassion on him. Let me translate, he assessed the situation and he discerned the necessary treatment and care the man needed immediately.  He fixed his wounds immediately, he was equipped for the journey. He poured in oil for healing and wine for purification, and sat the man on his beast. He gave of himself, bought him to an inn, and took up more time with the man to attend to his wounds.  When he awake the next day, he left the man with instructions, and he told the inn keeper to take care of him, and he left means (money) to cover the expense until he returned, and he said, if it requires more I will pay you when I return. The question in the Bible asks which of these men was a neighbor.  My question is which of these would you follow as your leader?  The answer is the one that showed mercy...Jesus told the lawyer that started this conversation on the subject to test Jesus to see what Jesus would say. Who Is My Neighbor?   

Who Is My Neighbor?


The answer is quite clear, that your neighbor does not have to live next door to you. It could be someone from your many audiences that have fallen in the ditch and have been over taken by life situations, and you and I as God’s chosen servant are responsible for everything we say we are covering under the sound of our voices to examine and survey, ever name, and every person that have shown compassion on us as we tread the wheat.  Our concerns and compassion are to be universal and not paralyzed by our (ADD and AHDD) mentalities and the inabilities to discern and react.  Jesus said in verse 37 of Luke 10, if you know, it is to show mercy, then go and do thou likewise.  We must be doers of the word and not hearers only.  We cannot beat people over the head with the word after they have fallen into diverse life issues.  We cannot blame the people when they have followed us so diligently, and ignore the cries of their pain. Is it a travesty or an apostasy?  Let me share the greatest example given to us in compassion for God's people, other than the Good Samaritan, the greatest example of true ministering. Jesus fed the followers, because he observed they were tired and weary they had followed him all day to see his miracles of healing of the diseased and hear his teachings.  He told his Deacons to get the people some food, and they said, there is no place nearby to buy for this food. Now I have to say, if you are following people that are leading well, it looks like you would learn from their teachings to in order to best help others without being told by your leader to do what should come natural when you have a multitude of people. How many times did Jesus take them out in the wilderness, or in places that was away from town.  He did that because he did not want the interference from the towns people.  Everybody is not happy about your knowledge. They like you better when you are dumb, or dummy downed.

Search for Lunch Two fish and 5 loaves of bread. John 6:1-13


They looked around, and found a little boy's lunch, and shared it. They found two little fish and five barley loaves of bread. It is too little for all the people to eat (5000 men). When you have too little, then God can bring the increase of 12 baskets of fragments (klasma) Greek word meaning remnants of food and translated "broken"). Pronounced klas mah. Now we have all theorized that the men had families.  If every man had a wife, then that would be 10,000, and if they had 1 child per couple, that would be 15,000 people that were fed that day from the kids lunch basket.  I was not their so I take it by faith. That Jesus made it happen to meet the needs of the people. He also did a key thing and added a measure of faith, and he blessed it, and gave thanks. Zec. 4:6-10 Do not despise small beginnings, it is not by my power,or my might, but by the spirit of the Lord.
