God's Word In Wrong Perspective

My friend quoted this passage to me in support of being stucked in his religion knowing his married Pastor has an illicit relationship with his 2 female brethren.

John 9:24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

John 9:25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

See, said the Pastor, just look on the good things that I am doing.

I was shocked that a wicked pastor of religion can use the bible to justify his evil doings.

What my friend consider as of now is the charitable and medical missions conducted by their group in the remote areas. It feels good to do charities, he said.

1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

1 Corinthians 5:13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

It is sad to note that my friend is still drinking and smoking but boastfully saying that he's not a drunkard.

That due to the nature of his business, a salesman, drinking and cigarette smoking is part of his representation. Additionally, he doesn't want to be branded as gay.

Gays don't drink and smoke? What a f..k "freak".

A couple of beer isn't bad, he said, and it is not excessive. He quoted this verse:

1 Peter 4:3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

What an evil justification using God's word in the wrong perspective.

Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

Galatians 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

Galatians 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

The word "and such like" includes all vices. If you ask me, where is smoking there?, then I will ask you also, where is illegal drugs there? - Shabu or Ecstacy.

Are you blind and still don't see? For wrongfully interpreting, that such vices are not written "word for word", then go ahead, smoke, drink and be a drug addict too.

Accordingly, where the wine is, there is disorderly gatherings (revellings) - for drunkards are just around the corner.

Romans 12:9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

The Indolent Faithful

This picture reminds me of the following passage from the Bible:

2 Corinthians 8:13 For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

2 Corinthians 8:14 But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:

2 Corinthians 8:15 As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.

This is applicable, not only within but also outside of the Church, to our family & country.

The reason why the rich are ordered to be charitable, laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

1 Timothy 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

1 Timothy 6:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

Let us not therefore be idle in faith and be persistent in spirit serving the Lord.

Romans 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

The picture is funny, isn't it?

But some of us are like that, including myself. We are not inquisitive of the things that happens around us. Once in a while, we are an indolent faithful.

Christians Are Already Sitting At the Right Hand of the Father

This is the story of Salvation with God the Father as the author.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

2 Timothy 2:11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

Colossians 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

Above is the brief story of salvation. It is presented by God and considered as done.

Spiritually speaking, saints are already sitting at the right hand of the Father-being part of the body of the Church where Christ is the head. It is but logical to say that, where the head is, the body is there.

Colossians 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

The only missing scenario in this story is the changing of the incorruptible body.

1 Corinthians 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1 Corinthians 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

We are still waiting for the changing of the incorruptible body of the called to be saints, unto the Church of God, with all that in every place.

Philippians 3:20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

1 Corinthians 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's:

Christians Are Not Allowed To Get Angry?

I scolded my young daughter of going home late. My wife said: I thought you found the true religion, why are you still like that?

She warned me because I almost hit my daughter with my belt for disrespectfully answering back.

Is it true that part of being holy is not to get angry at anybody?

Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

How about the beating of a Child?

If it will help to direct his/her steps, why not? We have what we call in our vernacular "palu-paluan". It's a whipping not intended to kill.

Proverbs 23:13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.

Although some parts of the world, especially U.S.A., beating a child with a rod will report you to Call 911. I assumed, Americans are not biblical in this particular verse.

Apostle Paul also warned the members of the Church of God who is at Corinth.

1 Corinthians 4:21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

Even Jesus Christ showed His anger when at the temple of God.

Matthew 21:12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

Matthew 21:13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

In fact, we are commissioned by God as watchman to give warning to the wicked.

Ezekiel 3:17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

Ezekiel 3:18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.

Ezekiel 3:19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

And allowed by God to give warning to the righteous that commits iniquity.

Ezekiel 3:20 Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.

Ezekiel 3:21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.

Can we now say, therefore, that Christians are not allowed to get angry?

Take Not the Name of the LORD thy God in Vain

Deuteronomy 5:11 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

Praise God, praise the Lord, Alleluia, Amen. These are the words we usually uttered in public most often or many times daily although we don't mean it. It's like an slipped of the tongue.

I usually hear these words in the Office from my born again friend to let us know that she is of God.

Just finding a lost ball pen, she will announce it with pride, praise God. Even for a small favor from an office mate, she will say it loud, praise the Lord, Alleluia, Amen.

Just a belch (throwing out of gas from stomach) after meal, she will announce it with pride, thanks God!

What men should see from a believer is the good works.

Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Thanking God always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ can be made by a prayer & spiritual songs.

Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Ephesians 5:19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

In fact the ears of the Lord is open to the prayer of the righteous.

1 Peter 3:12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

I remember years ago, while attending a retreat, we are asked to make a prayer request addressed to God with our signature on it. They placed the letter in the altar and burned it. They said, it's like a burnt offerings made unto God.

Now I realized, for fear of Him, I will never again take His holy name in vain. Even writing His name on a piece of paper.

Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

The wise, the scribe & the disputer became vain in their imaginations

1 Corinthians 1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

The knowledge of men is nothing compared to the wisdom of GOD.

1 Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Not until your reasoning is based on the wisdom of God written in the bible, you're in vain imaginations.

Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

It is wise then not to based your reasoning with your own understanding & many of us are like that. All doubts & questions regarding your salvation can be all justified by the scripture.

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

For only the believers of Christ that the mystery of the kingdom of God is made known.

Mark 4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

And for the unbelievers;

Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Turn from your wickedness first before attempting to read the scripture, for if you don't, you will never understand it. I mean, how can you understand if you are a womanizer, drunkard, gambler, reviler etc. etc.

Daniel 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Preaching the Gospel unto All Nations

The prophesy that knowledge shall be increased was made known to Prophet Daniel.

Daniel 12:4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

This is the assurance that gospel can be preached unto all nations.

Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

It is impossible then at that time can gospel be preached because of limited technology compared to what we have today. With the help of the internet using computers, the gospel when preached can be viewed simultaneously in all the four corners of this earth.

The question is, can anyone fund the simultaneous broadcasting? Knowing for a fact that an hour air time in a well known television channel is very expensive. Not unless there are members who are rich and are willing to share some of their wealth.

This young rich man asked Jesus, what shall he do that he may inherit eternal life?

Mark 10:19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.

Mark 10:20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.

Mark 10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.

Mark 10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

Mark 10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

This question comes to my mind. Why is it that Jesus asked the young rich man in Mark 10:21 to sell his possessions and give it to the poor, take up his cross & follow him instead of saying follow me & we will use your wealth in preaching the gospel?

It is the assurance of Jesus to the young rich man that thou shalt have treasure in heaven, but as a follower of Jesus we have this commandment:

Galatians 6:6 Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.

I am confident, with the help of God, the gospel can be preached unto all nations. The very reason why I give my share although mine was not good enough.

Richest men of the world. Hear ye! Hear ye! Want to become Saints? Be baptized in order for you to share because this congregation do not accept anything from a non member.

3 John 1:7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.

Who among the billionaires of this world will make the first move to fund the airing of the program and be a partner and fellow helper in preaching the gospel. Is it Bill Gates, the computer man? Will it be Buffet? or Slim chance?

1 Corinthians 4:7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

Lucas 12:21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

This is the commandment for the rich in this world.

1 Timothy 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

1 Timothy 6:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

The Story of the Rich Man and beggar Lazarus.

Luke 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

Luke 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

Luke 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

Luke 16:25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

Luke 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

Luke 16:27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

Luke 16:28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

Luke 16:31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Richest men of this world. Hear ye! Hear ye!

Pray to the Father - Give Alms in Secret

People pray in different ways.

I saw Korean missionaries in our country formed a circle along the road, bow their heads and pray.

I saw catholic families & born again christian inside a restaurant & food court say a prayer before a meal.

I even saw a mass gatherings performed inside the mall & supermarkets.

But what is really the commandment of Jesus Christ about praying?

Matthew 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

In a literal sense, it is understood that closet and door are inside or part of a house.

Spiritual meaning according to bible scholars explained that the closet is your eyes and the door is your ear.

But how you do it in secret is another thing.

My friend said, I can say a prayer in public with my eyes closed & my ear not entertaining a noise without anyone noticing it. I said FINE, you're a genius.

Matthew 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Traveling from office to home, while inside a public transport jeep, I saw an old lady with her eyes closed holding a rosary. I noticed that her finger is transferring from one bead to the other beads of the rosary. Is she praying in secret? The fact that I saw her gives the impression that she is not praying in secret.

She called the driver to stop, but it's a no loading & unloading zone. The driver stops at the designated unloading zone. The old lady alighted but murmuring. What she says? I don't want to elaborate. It reminds me of a local song "Banal na Aso, Santong Kabayo". In English translation "holy dog, saint horse".

But Brother Ely, how about the giving of alms to street children? Can you do it in secret?

Matthew 6:2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

I am also giving alms to street children. I am thankful if God reward me for doing that although it is a very small amount. But when you send him to School, pay for his hospitalization or give a house to dwell, will you have to broadcast that in public?

My friend said, of course not. But politicians did!

Matthew 6:1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

The 1000 Years Reign of Jesus Christ

The belief that the coming of Christ is the end of mankind on earth is contrary to the sequence of events made account by St. John as revealed to him in the Bible.

Jesus Christ will come twice here on earth as explained in the preceeding paragraph.

First phase of the coming of Jesus Christ:

1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

1 Thessalonians 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:

Revelation 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

1 Thessalonians 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.

A camp of the saints will be put up as a temporary seat of judgment where the location is mentioned in the Bible as "up over the broad plain of the earth" or "up on the breadth of the earth".

The resurrected body of the dead and the living saints who are caught up in the clouds with Jesus Christ shall be the judges of all the living souls remaining on this earth for a thousand years.

Luke 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

Luke 17:35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Luke 17:36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

What will happen to others who are left behind?

They will be given a chance to repent for 1000 years. Some may die others shall not taste death for death shall flee from them.

Matthew 16:28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Revelation 9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

God is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. He will give them the chance to repent & Satan was shut up for 1000 years for them (the left behind) not to reason deception.

Revelation 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

Revelation 20:3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

Revelation 9:20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

Revelation 9:21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

They are of their father the devil. Satan will welcome them for he is set free after a thousand years.

Second phase of the coming of Jesus Christ:

Revelation 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

Revelation 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

Together with his army of evils they surrounded the camp of the saints.

Revelations 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

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 are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

It's time to say, goodbye Earth!

Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

Matthew 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Matthew 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

To them that overcometh, they will eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. A better country, that is, an heavenly.

The destiny of the unbelievers:

Matthew 13:41 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;

Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Baby Herbal Soup in China

People in Canton China supposedly use baby fetuses as the main ingredient of an herbal soup. Locally referred to as a spare rib soup, it is believed to improve health and sexual performance.

It also notes the prices of the dead fetuses, ranging from a few hundred to 4,000 U.S. dollars, with those babies who died naturally costing more than the aborted fetuses.

It is very disturbing to mention that most fetus served in local restaurants are female babies. This is due to the fact that majority of Chinese prefers to have male babies and those poorer families usually end up selling their female babies.

There have been no other proofs to validate the veracity of the report now proliferating in the emails which began circulating in 2001.

Other reports says that the images are of a doll’s head attached to the “body” of a duck.

Hoax or not, is it possible that people can do such a thing?

Jeremiah 19:4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;

Jeremiah 19:5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind:

Jeremiah 19:6 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter.

Babe burning, roasting, cooking, eating either for offering or a disguise for improving ones health - one thing is sure! It's an abomination to GOD.

This thought comes to my mind... Is China the new place called The valley of slaughter? Opps.....erase...erase...erase!

Remember God in the Days of thy Youth

Ecclesiastes 12:1 Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;

Reading this passage, I said, yes I am guilty here. I spent 50 years in vain not knowing deep things about GOD.

I spent my youth days going to party, drinking, eating, sex & anything I know that will make myself happy.

Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

Matthew 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Luke 17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

Luke 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

Luke 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Before, what I know is, when I needed something, I will pray to Him & luckily most of my wishes are granted. He is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil anyway.

Luke 6:35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

It's like getting what I don't deserve & it is shameful.

It's like getting my allowance without helping my Mom in her household chores when I am still studying.

Most of the time I even complain, comparing myself to the other siblings accusing my parents of being unfair. Like the labourers in the vineyard.

Matthew 20:15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?

Yes, my parents are good, it's my eyes that is evil. How can you love GOD who is not seen when you can not love your parents, brothers, sisters including your enemies who is seen.

2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Deuteronomy 11:13 And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

God Secrets Are Not Known To Angels

I really don't know what an angel looks like for angels are spirits.

Do you know that Angels of God has the power to know all things that pertains to earth?

2 Samuel 14:20 To fetch about this form of speech hath thy servant Joab done this thing: and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.

But, do you know also that God secrets are revealed unto us but not to Angels?

In fact God do not put trust in his angels.

Job 4:18 Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly:

God reveal his secrets & mysteries unto prophets & ministries of Christ who made manifest to his saints.

Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

1 Corinthians 4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

Colossians 1:26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

He revealed the secrets unto us by his Spirit with the holy ghost sent down from heaven.

1 Corinthians 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

This is also the reason why, when the ministers of Christ preached, the angels are listening.

1 Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

Take a look at the word "the angels desire to look into".

If it is the desire of the angels to look into the minister preaching the gospel, to know more of the secrets of GOD, I wonder where my guardian angel is when I am not attending the assembly.

Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

I am talking of Ministers revealing the secrets of God as they preached. Not repeating the old secrets once preached but new stunning secrets that will create a desire in me to know more & wait for the next assembly to come.

For when I am not attending the assembly? I was temporarily abandoned by my guardian angel.

Eating of Herb & Fruits for the Sterile

Sterile or "Baog" in filipino vernacular is defined as a man not capable of producing life-giving sperm or the quality or state of being unable to reproduce.

Dating back in the days of pro creation, when Adam & Eve are the only man & woman on earth.

Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

God commanded them to eat herb & fruit yielding seed.

Genesis 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

The only scenario where they are commanded to eat meat in addition to green herb was when Adam & Eve transgressed or disobeyed God.

Genesis 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

Genesis 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

Genesis 9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

For the Sterile (both husband & wife), let's go back to the good old days. Eat herb & fruit yielding seed only.

Herb bearing seed, fruit yielding seed, woman bearing child - Does it make sense?...

Good luck on your first baby!

Fake Healing Sessions

Matthew 10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

This is the commandment given by Jesus to His Apostles.

The passage that being used by healers of today as their authority to perform such miraculous healing.

But look closely at the verse above, raising the dead is included in the apostles healing. Does anyone at this present dispensation can raise a dead? Without raising of the dead, your "healing" is definitely fake.

In the picture is the renowned "healing priest" Fernando Suarez, a Toronto, Canada-based priest, who is conducting healing sessions all over the country. He was accused by his church, a senior Catholic Bishop of violating faith protocol.

Is healing at this present dispensation authorized?

Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

What are the doctrines of Christ that Apostle Paul wants them to leave?

Hebrews 6:2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

St. Paul said, Let us go on unto perfection.

Hebrews 6:4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

Hebrews 6:6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

I John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

False prophets including false healers.

Instead, Go to a free medical missions conducted by professional Doctors rather than attending fake healing sessions.

Water Against Evil

God used water to destroy evil from the earth.

Genesis 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

So it rained upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance was destroyed from the face of the earth.

Genesis 7:23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.

John the Baptist also used water in Baptism to wash away sins.

The Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

But what bothers me is the unclean spirits that enter & dwell in a man.

Matthew 12:43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest,

If God saw that every thing (heaven & earth) he had made is good, where did the evil came from?

Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.

The evil came from Satan, who said in his heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

Isaiah 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

Evil therefore came from Satan not on the earth where good man dwells.

Job 1:7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

The reason why we are advised to be sober, watchful, and firm in our faith.

1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

When unclean spirits walketh through dry places, why it enter & dwell in a man where man's body is scientifically proven as composed mostly of water.

The water in this instant case is the word of GOD where unclean spirits can never dwell.

John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

Ephesians 4:27 Neither give place to the devil.

If he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.

Can a "holy water" cast out demons like what they are doing in exorcism?

Definitely not. You can spray all the water in the ocean and it will never cast out demons. What cast out demons is the word of God.
Matthew 8:31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

The presence of Jesus in this settings don't automatically cast them out until Jesus said unto them to go.

Matthew 8:32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

See, swine can't bear with them but man let them in.
