Repentance & Forgiveness




We hear people say “I can never forgive him/her,” or I have forgiven him/her,  but I have not forgotten; or I have forgiven, but I don’t want to be in the same place with him/her”.


This is not real forgiveness. We are only mouthing it. The truth is, it lurks deep in our heart. LET GO, otherwise, this mortal sin will grow into other sins. You let the devil a passageway into yourself.


We  have to repent, and never do the sin again. However, there comes a moment when we recall the hurt, and dark thoughts come to mind, immediately repent and ask God for forgiveness.


 

                                                   ___________________________

An excerpt from the Mountain Prophecies


THE UNREPENTANT HEART


Remember: You are responsible for your behavior. Don’t buy the common lie that Jesus is going to work some kind of magic on you and make your guilt disappear just because you profess Him with your mouth. Jesus does not erase the guilt of the unrepentant. The repentant heart is broken and sorrowful. It is broken of willfulness and is teachable. Jesus will forgive a repentant heart.


REAL FORGIVENESS


Will you forgive another? Not as long as you have a hard feeling toward this person. When you have forgiven another you have love and compassion in your heart in the place of hurt and anger. Do you see? Many say they forgive but they cannot forget. This is just another way of saying that they have not forgiven. If you truly forgive, you have only love and compassion toward the one, who has hurt you. True, you may remember, but your memories will be colored with love. Therefore you will not have the same memories; for the love of God will heal them.


When you come to accept that Jesus is Lord and Savior, you are a babe, and need to be nurtured and fed a constant diet of His spiritual truths. You need to receive regularly from The Spirit of God and you need to be faithful to God's commands to the best of your ability. When you have problems, bring them before God, seeking forgiveness. Make amends to those you have hurt where possible and try to stop doing the same offensive thing over and over. Do not give up on God and He will not give up on you. But if you are willful, He will let you be willful until He's had enough. Then, He will smite you.


The straight and narrow is a very difficult path. You may find yourself alone on this path, one against many, who are lost and accusing. But you must stand strong before God and do your best to be obedient, realizing that none are perfect. Never let a day go by that you do not come to God in prayer and thanksgiving. Regular fasting will help you have more of the Spirit of God in your life. Fasting also brings spiritual discipline, healing; and it breaks all yokes (Isaiah 58:6-9). Read the Bible regularly and your walk will be strengthened through spiritual wisdom. Make your home holy and stay away from the clamor of the masses. This darkness is most subtle. Its purpose is to steal, to kill and destroy as Lucifer is at its helm.


In all things, walk in humility in the Light of God. Respect Him, fear Him, and love Him with all your heart, for He is your reason for being. There is none other.

ADDICTION TO TV & INTERNET GAMING




TV shows, particularly, series of drama that play with your emotion is really addicting. I was once hooked on a dally show that when I  miss one segment,  I had a chance to catch up  on a Saturday. I would sit down for three hours to catch up.

This kind of show and the gaming tend to let you part with your family and spiritual duties, and that is the goal of Satan!

______________
An excerpt from Baptized by Blazing Fire


"While I was fervently praying, a vision appeared before me.  It was a man watching TV in his home.  As he was watching TV, a grotesque evil spirit came forth from the TV and entered his body.  The man never realized the spiritual effect of watching TV.  Then my vision switched over to an Internet cafe.  Filled with people surfing the internet or playing games 24 hours a day.  The place was packed with many gamers.  One man was giving all his attention to his game.  He must have been playing for hours, his eyes were red and bloodshot.  Suddenly, an evil spirit in the form of a skeleton came from the computer screen and entered the man's body.  With the evil spirit in him, he became more addicted and played feverously.  After observing this, I decided to be more cautious with what I watch and do on the Internet. 

Then I noticed an evil spirit in the shape of a half-moon.  With an agitated voice, it said, "Let me go to the Internet cafe." And in a vision, I saw this evil spirit heading toward the Internet cafe.  The evil spirit came to a man addicted to a game, it said, "Since you are so consumed with the games, I will enter your body." It then entered the man's body.  Many evil spirits of addiction harassed the people in the Internet cafe.  Even some saints fell into this trap.  They spent less time in prayer and more time with computers.  They were dedicated church folks who had fallen into the addiction of the internet and TV.  As a result, their church attendance and spiritual life were compromised.  The evil spirits were responsible for enticing the people.  These people became blind and did not realize that evil spirits were responsible for their addictions and actions.  I also saw a vision of evil spirits coming out of TVs into victims' bodies.

The Dead do not come Back




During childhood, the parents usually scare their children with the appearance of a “momoo” (ghost) to keep the children from  being rowdy.

There are stories that are being passed down that the diseased relative would come back after the third day from death. So what happens is, on the third night, most members of the family would wear red, to “ward off “the visit of the dead, and that everybody would sleep in one room with the lights on.

Even at the wake, a mother said that she saw her diseased son amongst the mourners.

A Catholic priest said that he saw the diseased nine-year old girl, crying during her wake.

The ghost or the diseased relatives may have manifested, but  the devil is masquerading as the dead relative.


Bible verses on the dead not coming back

2 Samuel 12:23

But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.


2 Samuel 19:10  
And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?

_________________

Do not be deceived by the devil. When a dead "relative" manifested, say: IN THE NAME OF JESUS, be gone!

20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son [is] stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; [he is] a glutton, and a drunkard

Message from our Lord Jesus


"My children, parents, you must guard, safeguard your children's souls. You cannot expect others to do this for you. As parents, you have been given a God given trust to instruct your children. In your world and a polluted mankind, a fallen generation, little children cannot retain their innocence of heart; little children cannot retain their modesty and purity of intention; little children are being educated in filth, corruption, and the breaking of the Commandments of your God. Woe, woe, woe to a man who defiles the young! Better that he had died in his mother's womb!" - Jesus, February 10, 1977

Punishment  in Hell for Rebellious  & Abusive 
Children 

An excerpt from Divine Revelations

“I saw another group of people. The demons were slicing their lips as if one thinly slicing meat or vegetables. I asked, “Why are these people tormented in such a way?” The angel said, “These are sons, daughters, son in laws, and daughter in laws who had talked back to their parents. All they had to do was say, ‘I’m sorry’ instead of making things worse. Many of them had used abusive language. They had attacked their parents with harsh language. They were rebellious. This is why their lips are being sliced.


Be saved from that torment. Repent. Ask the forgiveness of your parents and God's. Henceforth, follow the will of the Father. Know His will through he scriptures!

ELDERS & DEACONS WHO DID NOT SERVE THE CHURCH






Some members of the church who have achieved the position of elders, deacons, become complacent and do not serve the church. They are only interested in what they receive from the congregation,

Bible verses on service:

1 Peter 4:10 - 4:11

 10 As every man hath received the gift, [even so] minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

11 If any man speak, [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man minister, [let him do it] as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen

"Next I saw people being stabbed and cut into pieces. The sight was horrible. I asked, “What about these people?

LIVING-IN, ABORTION

image from daily verses

Living-in became a trend in  the 60s and has become a norm in the later generation. Justifying  the act  by saying that what binds a couple in marriage is just a piece of paper, that if a partner is disillusioned by the partnership, they could easily break off the relationship and find another partner, forgetting the sanctity of marriage.

Abortion is part and parcel of living-in. The relationship is seen as “temporary until the right partner is found.” That is why, the fetus is considered a “thing” that could be discarded off.


Bible verses on Marriage


 Corinthians 7:1-5, 7:8-11


1. Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

2. But, because of fornications, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

Let the husband render unto the wife her due: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

The wife hath not power over her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power over his own body, but the wife.

Defraud ye not one the other, except it be by consent for a season, that ye may give yourselves unto prayer, and may be together again, that Satan tempt you not because of your incontinency.

8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:

11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.

Genesis 2:24 - Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her when she is put away committeth adultery

Matthew 5:32 - But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Mark 10:9

What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder.


Punishment for FORNICATION & ABORTION

Excerpt from Divine Revelations

I saw demons piercing men and women in their stomachs with a very huge sharp nail. I asked, “What did they do?” The Angel replied, “These are men and women who had lived with one another but were not married. These are guilty of abortions as they also got pregnant. They had never repented.


________________
No matter how grave your sins are, GOD is merciful. Ask for forgiveness, before death overtake you, if that happens, eternal torment in hell is awaiting you.

Ask God for a GOD-fearing, loving  life partner. The relationship 
will not be a life of bed of roses. The challenges will be there to make you stronger, for God is with  all the way.


1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

LUST and its Punishment






Lust
1. is a strong craving for sex. It also can mean a hunger for anything, like lust for power.

2. self-indulgent sexual desire (personified as one of the deadly sins)

  
If a child is exposed to porn materials at a very young age, his curiosity is awaken, not knowing that sex, other than its purpose  of procreation, his mind will be inhabited by the demons urging the child to ask for more and never get satisfaction. He is hooked into pornography, and it would be difficult to get out of it. It is only Jesus who can help him. Guided by the parents, he has to beg for mercy, ask for forgiveness to be freed from the dark forces of evil.


Bible verses on LUST


Job 31:11-12  "For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished. It is a devastating fire that destroys to hell. It would wipe out everything I own."


Lust can lead to adultery/covetousness, two of the mortal sins.


Exodus 20:14, 17  "Do not commit adultery. . . Do not covet your neighbor’s house. Do not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female servant, ox or donkey, or anything else your neighbor owns," 


Matthew 5:28, "But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust in his eye has already committed adultery with her in his heart."



1 Thessalonians 4:7-8, "God has called us to be holy, not to live impure lives. Anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human rules but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you." 
.

An excerpt from heaven and hell, 1,000 to 1 

“I also saw people who had their heads hacked off by a very sharp saw. I asked the angel, “What did these people do to deserve such awful torment?” The angel replied, “Their brains were given by God to think good and beneficial things. But these people had thought of filthy things. They thought of lustful things. (Matt 5:28)

Punishment in Hell for Greedy and Stingy People, and do not Tithe


 Sometimes people with little, are the giver. They share whatever they have to the  needy.
On the other hand, people who have  so much more are stingy, and they never stop accumulating wealth, no compassion for the starving and those living in dire poverty.


Bible verses on helping the poor

Proverbs 19:17 - He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.

2 Corinthians 9:7 - Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Proverbs 14:31 - He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.

The reward to the giver

Proverbs 22:9 - He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.


But there are people who give to glorify themselves, they make it sure that their help in known. Hypocrite.

Matthew 6:1 - 6:4

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.

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.

3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

On tithing

Malachi 3:10 - Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].

Punishment for the stingy and greedy:


“ I saw the demons piercing and stabbing the stomachs of the people with sickles. Their screams were unbearable to me. I asked my escort, “Angels, what did these people do as they had lived on the Earth?

“These people had jobs, houses, and families but they did not give to God. They did not help the poor, their churches, or other Godly purposes. They were very stingy and greedy. Even as they encountered the poor, they ignored them and did not care. They only cared for themselves and their families. They were well clothed, fed, and had a comfortable life. This is why their stomachs are pierced for their bellies were full of greed. (Proverbs 28:27)

It was a very frightening scene. After witnessing such a scene, when I got back to the Earth, I gave all of my money and possessions to others. Salvation cannot be earned with money or property. It is by faith. Hell is an unbearable and miserable place. It is eternal torment!”

The Belief that there is no HELL


The big Church where I used to belong does not discuss hell in the homily or ministry meeting. The reason given is that they do not want to scare the churchgoers and turn them away (which will result to lessened number of churchgoers and thereby to  diminution of offerings).

Jesus Christ came the first time purposely to redeem us from the clutch of Satan from the time he deceived Adam and Eve to disobey God. He contradicts whatever God says in the scriptures and this master of deception, Satan, Lucifer the devil, DECEIVED many.

Satan has been with us on earth, thrown from heaven with his cohorts the demons. They are numerous, but they do not want to be identified, working through people they have lured by means of material wealth, power, and recognition. There are groups who are worshipers of Satan. They are the ones who come out of false teachings by diluting the Bible, come out of legislations which is against life, desecrating the Word by allowing same sex marriage, introducing sex education to young children at grade school level, prohibition of discussing God in classrooms, at least in some western countries. GOD forbid that we, in the Philippines be infected of these curses.

The demons do not manifest, they want to imprint to the young minds that they are fantasies; there is no hell, nor the existence of heaven nor GOD. In view of this, atheists and agnostics are proliferating. The devils’ favorites are the arrogant, ambitious, prideful, the “intellectual”. sure of their place in the hereafter…the filthy, dark, hot (1,000 degrees Fahrenheit) place of hell. The one you worship will enjoy torturing your soul because you are the image of Yahweh, our God, with no rest, no sleep, and no water to quench your thirst.

I pity those unbelievers who are thinking that there is nothing after death. There are so many testimonies, prophecies, especially the Word of God that is coming to fulfillment. WAKE UP!

 People who died and were given the chance to see heaven and hell and returned to life to give testimony of their experience. Of course, Satan is doing everything to discredit these testimonies. Pray for God’s enlightenment.

Please be guided by these bible verses:

Matthew 7:21-23


I Never Knew You

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

Hebrews 11
    Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. ...
                                         HELL
      Psalm 9:17

      The wicked shall be turned into hell, And all the nations that forget God.
Psalms 114:3

 "The sorrows of death have compassed me: and the perils of Hell have found me"

Judith 16:17

"The Lord Almighty will take revenge on them, in the day of judgment he will visit them. For he will give fire and worms into their flesh, that they may burn, and may feel for ever"

Isaiah 65:5

. "Depart from me, come not near me, because thou art unclean: these shall be smoke in my anger, a fire burning all the day"

Deut.32:22-23

 "A fire is kindled in my wrath, and shall burn even to the lowest hell...I will heap evils upon the transgressors of my law, and will spend my arrows among them"

Ecclesiastics 21:10

"The congregation of sinners is like tow heaped together, and the end of them is a flame of fire"

Job 20:17,22,26

"He shall be punished for all he did, and yet shall not be consumed:...he shall burn, and every sorrow shall fall upon him...All darkness is hid in his secret places: a fire that is not kindled shall devour him" 


Repent contritely and do the will of the Father embodied in the scriptures. Ask for discernment from the Holy Spirit.

Hope to see each other in Heaven!

Build your Home in Heaven

We as an adult, if we live righteously, have a home in heaven. However, children have no homes yet. 
The homes are built by angels. The size and grandeur is dependent on the materials you submit. How?

An excerpt from Heaven and Hell 1,000 to 1

'The angel replied, “Just as the people on Earth require materials to build their homes, we in Heaven also need materials to build here. When a person serves the church and others faithfully unto the Lord, those deeds will become materials for a person’s home in Heaven.

When the materials are provided, the angels assigned to build a saint’s home will go to work on constructing it. The children who are below the accountability age have not built up any materials to build a home. In other words, they did not have the time or chance to earn their rewards/materials. This is why they do not have homes.
I continued with my questions, “What shall I do on Earth to provide more materials for my home?
The angels replied, “There are seven things one must do to build up their materials to build their home.

The first is their accumulation of worship and praise to God.
The second is their time spent reading the bible.
Third, their time spent praying.
Fourth, their time spent evangelizing to people.
Fifth, one’s offering to the Lord.
Sixth, their obedient tithes to God. 

Lastly, their time spent serving the church in any way.
These are the deeds or works of obedience in which one accumulates materials for their Heavenly home. If one is lacking in these areas, they will have no materials to build their home.

There were numerous people in Heaven without homes. Many who did not have homes were actually pastors, deacons, deaconesses, elders, etc.' I asked out of curiosity, “Where do the children live then?

The angels replied, “They live here.” As I looked around, they were gathered throughout the garden of flowers. The garden of flowers was so beautiful and the fragrance was out of this world. The scene was beyond what I could describe with my words.

The second place was for faithful adults. There is a difference between salvation and rewards. This place had so many homes. The homes were built with beautiful gems and rare stones. Some of the homes were as high as the highest skyscrapers on Earth. Those people who had faithfully served the Lord while living on Earth had their homes built with beautiful gems and rare stones. In this particular place, all the people looked around the age of 20 to 30 years old. There were no men or women in regards to gender. There are no sick, old, or lame people.
I once knew an elder named, Oh, Im Myung. He had died at the age of 65 years old. He was a very short man, as tall as 2nd graders in elementary school. He had suffered from a rare disease called rickets. However, when it came to the bible, he was a PHD. He had written many commentaries. I met him in Heaven, and there he was tall and handsome. He was no longer sick but healthy. Heaven is a very wonderful place!! I am so full of expectations! Please believe what I am saying beloved people!

The third place was for those who were shamefully saved. (1 Cor. 3:15) This particular village was enormous in size, several times bigger than the second place, where the homes were made of gems and rare stones. I arrived at this place at great speed, riding a golden chariot. It was very far from the other beautiful places I saw in Heaven.

I asked the angels, “I see great wilderness and fields. Why do I not see homes?” The angel replied, “What you are seeing are homes.
I saw huge wide flat houses, which reminded me of a large chicken coop or some type of warehouse. These homes were not glorious, but shabby. This village and homes were for the souls who were shamefully saved. There were numerous large sized shabby looking homes. This village is several times bigger than the place where rewarded souls reside.
The angel said, “Do you see the two large homes, one to your right and one to your left? I answered, “Yes, I do see them.

The angel said that he wanted to show me those two houses specifically. He said, “The right home is for those who were pastors on the Earth. The left home is for those who were elders on the Earth.” As we arrived to the front of the two homes, I noticed they were humongous. My jaw dropped. When we opened the door and entered, my first impression was, ‘chicken coop.’ Instead of thousands of chickens living in their coop, I saw souls. The angels advised me to observe very carefully because I would recognize some famous pastors from history. It was true. I recognized many pastors from history. I specifically picked out one pastor and asked the angel, “I know that Korean pastor! I know how famous he was and the work he had done for the Lord. Why is he here? I do not understand.
The angels answered, “He never provided any building materials for his home. This is why he is living in a community home.
I asked out of curiosity, “How did this happen? Why did he not have any materials?” The angel answered, “While he was a pastor performing the functions as a pastor, he had loved to be complimented by the people. He had loved to be honored. He had loved to be served. There was no sacrifice and servitude on his part.” This particular pastor was greatly honored in Korea and is an icon within the Korean Christian history. But he had no reward!!

You Pastors out there, please listen! You have to lead people to more than just Sunday morning services. You must visit them in their homes. You must take care of the poor, the lame and old. The pastors who have served without sacrificing their lives and loved to be honored have no reward in Heaven. (Matt 23:5-12)
