THE WORLD IS AGAIN
FLOODED BY WATER
Brother James, OIC
2Pe 3:1-7 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
2Pe 3:9 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.
2Pe 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
There is only one thing that can purify you, that can remove the spots of false doctrines, that you can repent to and that is TRUTH. Jesus stated that His words are spirit and they are life. The world today is again flooded, symbolically by water, by the words of false doctrines that do give life but produce death through false teachers in the Church and in the world. These use words to control you, put you fear or hold you captive, they pronounce you as sick, as sinners going to hell, as never being able to fully recover, that the Devil doesn’t exist or is not to blame but that your problems are your flesh’s fault, that your solution is medicine, psychologies, philosophies or step programs or even doing works of the Law but it isn’t. YOUR ONLY HOPE IS JESUS CHRIST WHO IS GODS WORD INCARNATE. GODS WORD IS YOUR SOLUTION AND WANTS TO BECOME INCARNATE IN YOU. THEREFORE THE SOLUTION FOR YOU AND YOUR LIFE CAN ONLY BE RECEIVED BY YOUR RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE TRUTH OF GODS WORD. IT IS THE ONLY WORD THAT CAN TRULY, SAVE YOU, CLEANSE YOU, DELIVER YOU, WASH YOU AND PURGE YOU AND IT MUST ABIDE IN YOUR HEART. IT IS TRUTH THAT BIRTHS THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST (GODS ANOINTING) IN YOU AND IT’S THE ANOINTING THAT BREAKS ALL THE YOKES SATAN USES TO HAVE US LOOKING EVERYWHERE ELSE OTHER THAN TRUTH FOR OUR SOLUTIONS. GODS TRUTH CHANGES YOU INTO A NEW CREATION THAT’S ANOINTED TO DO GODS WORK, HIS WILL FOR YOUR LIFE AND IT WILL FLOW OUT OF YOU LIKE RIVERS OF LIVING WATER.
2Ti 2:24-26 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
I recently went to a Church which at first glance appealed to me. But after listening the Pastor was constantly judging and condemning and could only preach from handwritten sermons. No doubt if it’s Truth being read it will save others but if it doesn’t flow out of the minister in Living Words than I question where he is in growth in Christ or if he is truly the called of God. But if all they teach is out of both sides of their mouth one minute Grace without knowledge of Truth the next Law with works, evil judgments or worse worldly solutions there is no stability in doctrine, he is a false teacher an end time apostate. I noticed that myself and everyone that visited was told that his Church was suppose to be their home Church that God brought us to him, I actually was invited by a friend who quit the Church twice while I was visiting and now is only back because of friends who go there. Today more than ever Satan has sent out his army of demons appearing as Angels of Light whose ministers only appear as Ministers of Righteousness but there is no Sincere Truth in them. There is a flood of False Doctrine in the world today. And these are gossipers, backbiters having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof.
But Gods Truth is called spirit and life:
Joh 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Cleansing Water, spot and wrinkle remover:
Eph 5:23-27 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
It is Living and Powerful:
Heb 4:9 -14 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. 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. Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
Profession is confession of Truth because:
Pro 18:19-21 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
It is not okay to preach even a little false doctrine as Jesus stated a little leaven leavens the whole lump and judgment on those false ministers of Satan who cause offenses who gossip and teach false doctrine is set:
Mat 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
