Dear LBCFF Team: 8-16-19
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it
is the gift of God…” Ephesians 2:8
“For if by one man’s offence [Adam’s] death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall
reign in life by one, Jesus Christ… That as sin hath reigned unto death,
even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus
Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:17, 21
“Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from
death… Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth
from death.” Proverbs 10:2; 11:4
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected
knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me:
seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy
children… For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit
whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed
to the LORD.” Hosea 4:6,10
Hosea says: “shall not increase…” abortion, which many times comes from
whoredom, has caused us to not have enough workers. If we had the
50,000,000 babies that were born to us, in our land, we may not be facing
some of the extreme problems before us.
A quick reading of what happened in the past as recorded for us in the
Bible will tell us what to expect if we don’t turn around and correct our
ways. Strangers overthrew those who turned from God.
Isaiah 3; Deuteronomy 28; and all through the Bible we are warned of the
consequences of rebellion against God and His law of liberty (liberty from
sin and it’s consequences; death and destruction).
Jesus warned us of what would be transpiring in the final days and Isaiah
had words also: “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in
divers places.” Matthew 24:7 “Your country is desolate, your cities are
burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it
is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.” Isaiah 1:7 “Let them bring them
forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come.” Isaiah 41:22
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should
perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9
“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in
heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am
with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20
“Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the
chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up
as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and
despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. Therefore is the anger of
the LORD kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand
against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their
carcases were torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is
not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. And he will lift up
an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of
the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly…” Isaiah
5:24-26
“And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an
ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be
glorious.” Isaiah 11:10
To ‘it’ shall the Gentiles seek: and ‘his’ rest shall be glorious. It is
the Ten Commandments and He is the Messiah, Jesus Christ. THE WORD OF GOD. They are one.
“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in
heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done
many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock…” Matthew 7:21-25
The Word is written on the Rock of our salvation, they are one. Stone.
As we say: “It’s written in stone.”
“And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.” Deuteronomy 4:13
“For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being
judges.” Deuteronomy 32:31
Anything, or anyone, that separates Jesus Christ, as revealed to us in the
Holy Bible, and the Word written by the finger of God is anti-christ (in
place of Christ).
“Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe
it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall
show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they
shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore
if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth:
behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning
cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the
coming of the Son of man be.” Matthew 24:23-27
As we have taken the Ten Commandments to world leaders, and people, and explained about the first commandment being a type or shadow of the
sacrifice of Jesus Christ for us on the cross of Calvary many have said the
almost exact words of Isaiah 52:14-15
“As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any
man, and his form more than the sons of men: So shall he sprinkle many
nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not
been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they
consider.”
The lamb that was to live with a family for four days (Exodus 12) and then
be killed and the blood put on the door posts of their house, and they were
to eat the rest of the lamb, thus with the blood covering the door they
were permitted to leave the house of bondage. Then with the Lamb on the
inside after eating it they were able to walk into freedom from the bondage
of Egypt, which is a type of the bondage of sin: “And their dead bodies
shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called
Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” Revelation 11:8. All
of this was foreshadowing the true Lamb of God, Jesus Christ.
“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” John 1:29
“Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat
the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you…
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words
that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” John 6:53, 63
Many of the followers of Jesus couldn’t understand these things, it
sounded like they were to eat His body.
“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for
they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14
“From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with
him. Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon
Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of
eternal life.” John 6:66-68
As it says in verse 63, the words are where the life is. Back to the
Word.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6 “And the Word was made
flesh, and dwelt among us…” John 1:14
We must be wary of the days ahead and watch.
“With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within
me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the
inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.” Isaiah 26:9
“Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.” Isaiah 8:16
“And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the
living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it
was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth,
neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God
in their foreheads.” Revelation 7:2-3
Isaiah 8:16 tells us the law is to be sealed in the followers of Jesus,
then the winds of strife will be allowed in fury to blow.
“Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD
is near in the valley of decision.” Joel 3:14
As the world rushes to destroy the family through breaking the
commandments that say: “Thou shalt not kill.” (abortion) and “Thou shalt
not commit adultery.” (marriage between a man and woman) we are ripe for judgments in the land. We have a warning message to give: “If the
foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Psalm 11:3
Do we sit and wring our hands when we see the foundations being destroyed? The text asks: “…what can the righteous do?” We answer not with fear and indecision but with determination: “The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1
“Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my
people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins… And they
that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up
the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer
of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.” Isaiah 58:1, 12
By God’s Grace we will lift up the Word of God to the world.
God be with you each one.
