None of you was without sin before you came to know salvation , yes we all have sins in our past , and there is no sin worse than another in the eyes of God , save one , which is to blaspheme the Holy Spirit , so wherebeit you feel free to make a difference?...Are you justified in your practice of dredging up some long past sin of one who belongs to the Lord , one whos sins were forgiven him or her , and are not remembered by our Father in heaven?, verily there is one who points the finger at past sins to appose , he is the accuser , satan , who stands apposed to those who have departed from evil , it is now all too common that the redeemed are made a prey in the name of social justice , this power in the hands of satan , appeals to the unforgiving heart , the mind of vengience , and has nothing to do with God , yes , in a world full of the spirit of anti-Christ most are deceived by it , this thing should not be in your heart at all , WHO is YOUR master?.........Doubt these words at your own peril , for God is determined to put an end to this practice , when He brings this present age to a close upon His glorious return; Do you doubt still?.....read these words from the Lord your God:.........ISAIAH 29:20-21; (20) For the terrible one is brought to nothing , and the scorner is consumed , and all that watch for iniquity are cut off: (21) That make a man an offender for a word , and lay a snare for Him that reproves in the gate , and turn aside the just for a thing of nothing...............MICAH ;6:8: (8) He has shown you O man , what is good; And what does the Lord require of you , But to do justly , To love mercy , And to walk humbly with your God?.......Yes my brothers and sisters , He loves mercy , take heed to yourselves , and be warned , lest you be found wanting , for His coming is close , even closer than you think , after much grievous tribulation , and if God spared not the natural branches , take warning that you may be spared , don't be found walking in another spirit , nor indeed after the thoughts of your own hearts , continue in His goodness.............God is angry with those that whisper in the congregation , with those that search out the past sins of a redeemed one , to withdraw their fellowship from him or her , to turn the back and snub the nose , I tell you the truth , in this,...satan,...has crept into your church , for in that you do this thing,......SHAME ,......you have served satan , not God........What would you do , you who say you are good Christians , if a man who was in prison , sent a plea to your church , for someone to help him or her with somewhere to live when released from prison?...........Would you say; "Oh , we don't feel led by the Lord to help you?"...........Indeed , anyone who would say that , is not led by the Lord at all , of a truth, they spoke accuratly, for they do not even know Him............That has occured already , to a man who was in prison; truly , do many reject the Lord , because of those that have not love, praise the Lord , although this man suffered this display of un-Christ-like rejection , yet he stayed firm in the Lord who delivered him.......The Lord will not forget them that do this , at the judgement , unless they repent and turn away from such spiritual bankruptcy and wrongdoing......The man concerned was once a miserable sinner , just like all of you were , and many still are......He was once possessed of an evil demon , on this man the Lord showed great mercy by personally driving out that foul spirit , after the man in great torment cried out in total surrender.........He is now a staunch follower of the Lord Jesus , walking in the True Spirit day by day......None of you were without sin before the Lord saved you , yet this man was rejected , by those that were suposedly his brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus , truthfully I tell you , they have done this thing to Christ , and they call themselves christian , friends of Christ?!!!...........HYPOCRITS , liars , thieves , and cheats , afflicting Christ at every opportunity , without love , yet , will such have the gall to ask Him to let them into the wedding feast , truely I tell you , unless they repent of this , now , before the door is shut , then He shall say depart I know you not.........Then , there is a woman , who is an upstanding Christian , a true faithfull woman who was the fiance' of a man in prison , this blessed woman had suffered greatly for her faithfulness to he whom she loves , her father died defending her right to remain faithfull to the one she loves , she herself had been beaten , and had been at one time close to death because of a beating she took , because she would not marry another , she had been on top of all this , brutally raped at knifepoint. In his great love and compassion for her , her fiance' , from the prison , asked many a visiting pastor to find someone , anyone , within their congregations of the churches to sponsor her to our fortunate country , so she may be safe while she waits for whom the Lord has given her........The pastors for all their searching , amazingly could find none , no , not even one , who had the necessary love , compassion , or mercy , who would put out the hand of Christ-like love , not even for one who had broken no law , and even forgives those that have harmed her , truely she is one of Christs.........Inasmuch as no one did it for her , they did it not for Christ as you should know from that Holy Word you say you uphold...........This admonishing may seem harsh , but I speak from tears that well up in my heart for I know so many of you are not walking as you should , I make it quite clear I speak from that Love which I hold by reason of the Holy Spirit , that , as many as will read and understand , will walk according to that Word to which you were delivered , and in the Love odf Jesus Christ , my Deliverer..... Conan.Clark...A Watchman,...and written under the Lord.==============PROVE ALL THINGS.......(Extract from....Truth the Rose and the Flame.....by Conan . Clark.)***************************************** Christ Jesus, implores us to prove all things, on account of the vast extent of deceits covering nearly all areas of knowledge.........Even as far as turning saving knowledge to none effect due to lack of follow-up knowledge..........It,s a little like a car that's got a lot wrong with it , you can't put it on the road , it's too broken down , so you keep it off the road and get to work on it , mending , repairing , replacing ,finally the day arrives , you have on your hands now , a gleaming , looking practically new , smooth running machine........It's ready for the road , you breeze through road-worthy , your right now , everything is fine.........For a while you enjoy the exhileration of breezing down the highway,....months go by , you however , have become complacent , you haven't bothered to have it serviced , after many more months a day arrives and you have to carry extra weight , your car cannot stand up to the test,.....your motor blows up , or you were too lazy to check your gearbox and it now lies in pieces along the road..............So it goes with us , once we are saved , neglect not to pray , keep in touch with God , and keep in touch with His Word , follow up , keep growing in faith and knowledge , in His Grace , don't become complacent , be dilligent , renew your relatiponship day by day with Him.......A time of testing will come and it's only common sense to be at full power, everything between you and God through Jesus working perfectly and don't forget your fuel , stay topped up and brimming over with the Holy Spirit,... because in the road of our lives we will come across many whose tanks are empty, and by His Power they can be filled.......GLORY...............The carnal mind cannot know the things of the Spirit that are spiritually discerned......There are those who have a certain understanding of things spiritual ,..but their knowledge pertains to,...or springs from that other , dark spiritual realm , being blind to Truth , their knowledge and power is from satan , given by him , to lead them to eternal torment..............Be warned, even though they heal,..even though they perform miracles, even though they prophesy, they are possessors of lying gifts , it is not for nothing that it is written in God's Word to us; to quote..............(N.K.J.V. Textus Receptis) 2THESSALONIANS 2:9-11....(9)..The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power,signs and lying wonders, (10) and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of truth, that they might be saved. (11) And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,...........unquote,.......This probably raises the question in your mind as to what sort of signs are refered to, the answer should be obvious,since satan sets himself up as Christ it follows that the signs spoken of are counterfeit "gifts of the spirit"........This is apparent and obvious if you pay due attantion to the scriptures......One of the gifts is the gift of prophecy,....there is a false spirit of prophecy,...for instance,..this not only talks of diviners or fortune tellers and psychic channelling, and third eye enthusiasts,...but....there is, and this is more dangerous,....within church bodies, a false spirit opperating to lead the unwary to receive....(be possessed with)....a demonic or false spirit within themselves, fully beleiving they are possessed of the Holy Spirit , having been cleverly fooled by a lying or seducing spirit, for instance they are seduced into beleiving then accepting demonic domination, after the utterances of a false prophet, (this is only one method).........................I urge you to not be hasty nor foolish in your testing of the spirits , be guided by the Holy Spirit in this and by the Word of God together for it is a grievous thing indeed to speak against the Holy Spirit, and is unforgivable and leads to eternal darkness,......The Word of God has this to say, please take careful note.............1 JOHN 4:1-6.........(1) " Beloved,do not believe every spirit,but test the spirits,whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. (2) By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus has come in the flesh is of God, (3) and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of anti-Christ,which you have heard is coming, and is now already in the world. (4) You are of God , little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world . (5) They are of the world, and world hears them. (6) we are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error...........................A false spirit will speak the name of Jesus, will speak the name , Lord, will speak the name , Christ, but will never acknowledge that Jesus is the Christ, who is God who was made flesh, it would mean acknowledging their defeat and being reminded of their coming torment which was made sure when Jesus Christ came in the flesh to die for our sins, for thereby camr their defeat, praise the Lord Jesus Christ..........I further urge you to take your time with any group with whom you are unfamiliar, it is a sad fact that,...due to a lack of dilligence,a lack of knowledge of God's Word,..many are convinced that any group which shows miraculous spiritual gifts is legitimate, they become so overwhelmed by prophesying,healings,tongues,etc..............There are of course legitimate , true gifts of the Holy Spirit , healings, tongues, prophesying, but equally are they imitated by an unholy spirit by which many are led to accept an infilling of demonic origin , and of a truth I tell you, if this were not so Jesus would not have said;.....LUKE 21:8 "And He said:"Take heed(heed=warning)that you be not deceived. For many will come in my name,saying,'I am he,' and 'The time has drawn near'. Therefor do not go after them."..................Also; MARK 13:22-23; (22) For false Christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders,(miracles) to deceive if possable , even the elect. (23) But take heed; see; I have told you all things beforehand."............Please remember that satan is a deceiver,even so are his legions of demons (fallen angels), their miracles are false and a lie, like healings that later fail or lead to a worse condition, also in some, to demon possession or oppression. Apparent healing of the blind, when the blindness was caused by a malevalent spirit at an earlier time .......They can and do fake , raising of the dead, through the aid of a demonic spirit who would throw someone into a deep coma so that he or she appears dead, affecting a fake resurrection of the dead..........The Holy Spirit can resurrect the 'truely' dead , even if the body be advancing along the path of decay. Satan can destroy but he cannot reverse his destruction, he simply has not that power, but be warned, satan has enormous power to deceive and destroy.........Demons can and do utter strange tongues, have not those involved in trying to exorcise evil spirits reported a senseless babbling in some victims?.........They can imitate as well, whom they will, they do not really cast out their own kind, but they can and do play a deceiving game, a clever deception which makes it appear they are cast forth, being transfered to another abode or victim, the origional house is then taken up by more powerful demons than the first residents, this occurring convinces many who come streaming forth to receive what they beleive will be the Holy Spirit, instead the unwary receive their very own personal demon...........In these cases the invoking is not done in the name of Jesus Christ, but instead is accompaneid by an unintelligible babbling, yes it behoves all to be extremely wary......................You may wonder how,..........with the existence of such great danger,........one can know the difference, because these deceits are so diabolically clever that even the eect could be fooled if it were possible?.....The answer has already been revealed, yet millions are blind to it, you do not accept the 'gifts' as proof of the Holy Spirit , they are proofs of the outworking only, as such showing the works of the Spirit, remember always we are instructed to always test the spirits and so, what is the test which shows the Holy Spirit , or reveals an unholy spirit?.......God is Love, Jesus Christ and God are One, he who has the Holy Spirit has Jesus in him, therefor Love for God is Love, therefor God has come into the flesh, and the Spirit that is from God whether He be the Holy Spirit ,or a heavenly messenger or angel of the Lord ,will testify that Jesus is the Christ Who is God Who came down and became flesh that He may die and then defeat death and the grave, and took upon Him the sin of the world, out of His tremendous grace and mercy, if any spirit does speak unto you and testifies not that God has come down in the flesh,such spirit is a lying deceiver, a seducing spirit............................................All who have the Holy Spirit , have Jesus Christ indwelling therefor God , Immanuel, therefor Love, for God is Love, and that is the key by which you may know them, for the Lord knows those sheep that are His, for they have the Holy Spirit , therefor the Mind of Christ, and God's Love indwells them, and they will all exhibit the fruits of the Spirit this is the treasure of the heart that has Jesus, many mistake the gifts of the Spirit as proof of the indwelling Holy Ghost, they are different from the fruits of the Spirit.......Gifts are given to some but not all are given the same gifts,otherwise what use is fellowship with the rest of the Body of Christ or the members of His Body?!! We are given different gifts , whereby some have a few the same it would be rare indeed for any one member to have all at once, thus this way we are dependent upon our brethren even inasmuch as the eyes are dependent upon the head, as are the ears and the tongue, and can they say they have no need of the legs?.........no, can the arms exist aside from the body?....no,they would be rendered useless......Having a gift is not the identifying sign of a true Christian, and many today still make a singular gift as if a sign that they are of the flock, insisting as some do, that if they do not talk in tongues then they do not have the Holy Spirit, God forbid that any should reason thus but many do, and they do error greatly causing some to be deceitful by faking a speaking in tongues lest they be considered as not of the flock, and this despite the Word of God saying to them;.....1CORINTHIANS 12:4-11 ;....(4) Now there are diversities of gifts,but the same Spirit. (5) There are differences of ministries,but the same Lord. (6) And there are diversities of activities,but it is the same God who works all in all. (7) But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: (8) for to one is given the word of wisdom by the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit, (9) to another faith by the same Spirit , to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, (10) to another the working of miracles,to another prophesy,to another the discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. (11) But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills............(Take notice if you will of verses 14-20,) (14) For in fact the body is not one member but many. (15) If the foot should say. "Because I am not a hand , I am not of the body," is it therefor not of the body? (16) And if the ear should say. "because I am not an eye, I am not of the body? (Nor yet should any member say you are not of the congregation, if you do not speak in tongues,can any say, "We have no need of you?") (17) If the the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be? (18) But now God has set the members , each one of them , in the body just as He pleased. (19) And if they were all one member,where would the body be? (20) But now indeed there are many members, yet one body............Also read verses 27-30:.......(27)now you are the body of Christ , and members individually.(28) And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles,then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. (29) Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? (30) Do all have the gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?.....................Obviously not all are granted the same gifts,this applies to tongues equally as all gifts, God can and has made an exception as on the day of penticost, but clearly the norm is not all are given to speak in tongues on an ongoing basis, clearly this is why we must dwell within the body of Christ that we may be edified one of another by reason of each individual having a gift of the Spirit yet not all having the same gifts , is it love when one will pompously say another is not of the congregation because he or she does not share the same gift you have been blessed with? God forbid this should be in any church.>>>>>(CONTINUED BELOW)
