TREASON! NO INVESTIGATION NEEDED

"For the wrath of  God is revealed from heaven against
all ungodliness and unrighteousness of  men, who hold
the truth in unrighteousness:  Because  that which may 
be  known  of  God is  manifest in them;  for  God  hath
shewed it to them.  For the invisible things of him from
the creation of the world are clearly seen, being under-
stood  by the  things that  are  made,  even  his  eternal
power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse..."
                                                            Romans 1: 18-20

  There is one who has been in and around governmen-
tal "service" for the entirety of her public life; an attor-
ney, married to one who held the most powerful elected 
office of our  land and in  the  world.  She also held the
office of Secretary of State of this great country, totally
betraying that trust, the office, this people and her God.
There has never been any evidence of submission to the 
Lord  God on  her part,  but her husband  and the man
who held  the office of  president  during  her tenure in 
high office  mentioned above, have both  claimed  alle-
giance  to  the Lord  God and  to his Son, Jesus Christ.

The report on her is; for monetary gain, she, with appa-
rent consent and agreement of the President, gave part,
(20%) of our fissionable, nuclear material to an enemy.
 She may well have been guilty of other crimes, but this
one will  serve to  indicate the  greed, avarice, and just
plain ignorance on the part of  those  who lose sight of
their responsibility to constituents and  to the God and
Father of the people on this planet and to her own well
being.  She  has  lost sight of  the risk  to the safety and
well being of her daughter.  She has lost any respect or 
trust her countrymen may have had for her. What is the
value to 100's  of millions of  dollars if security of your 
home and life is threatened because of  malfeasance on
your part?

   This is still under investigation by the appropriate
   agencies, and may or may not be thoroughly prose-
   cuted by our spineless and  ineffectual elected offi-
   cials, be  they  dems. or repubs.   Do not hold your 
   proverbial  breath until the persons involved in the
   treason are brought to justice. They seem much too
   powerful.  There is a God on the throne and wrong
   conclusions here do not bind him.  (See II Thess. 1)
     In spite of the ideas thrown out above, we have all
sinned; we have guilt in our lives needing forgiveness.
There is still hope, for this one, as well as you and me.
 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one.
 There is none  that understandeth, there is none that
 seeketh after God.  They are all gone out of  the way.
 They are together become unprofitable; there is none
 that doeth good, no, not one."  Romans 3: 10-12

"But God commendeth his love toward us, that while
 we were yet sinners,Christ died for us." Romans 5:8

  The blood of Jesus Christ is more powerful than our
sin..."For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord."

THE FOLLOWING IS OFFERED WITHOUT COMMENT:


    Hillary Clinton may be headed from politics to the pulpit.
The 2016 Democratic presidential candidate told her longtime
pastor, William Shillady she would like to pursue a position of
spiritual leadership, The Atlantic reports.
  And Shillady, executive director of the United Methodist City
Society, told the  magazine: "Given her depth of knowledge of
the Bible and her  experience of caring  for people  and loving
people, she'd make a great pastor."
Shillady is author of the new book, Strong for a moment like
this:The Daily Devotions of Hillary Rodham Clinton," which
was published by Abingdon Press.
Shillady told the Atlantic's Emma Green that Clinton, a Metho- 
dist, has always been greatly influenced by her faith. "It's Been
there all along.  The general public  didn't necessarily  want to
accept the  fact that she's a  Christian because  there's so many
critics out there about  the Clintons," he said.  Shillady's  book
contains 365 devotions and a forward by Clinton herself."
"It's an inspirational book. I do not believe that she encouraged 
 me to write this book in any way to change the image of her," 
 Shillady told the mag. "She really found [the devotionals] so
helpful to her in the midst of the contentious campaign that she 
felt that people would find some hope … from it."

LIVING IN THE PRESENT IN HIS PRESENCE...

     There is a Gospel song named, "In the Presence of Jehovah."
This is a quiet, peaceful and reverent song of worship.  A song
that speaks to my heart, as it is sung, and is very meaningful as
you read the Scriptures that talk about the reverence,  awe and  
joy as  one anticipates  the soon  coming of  our Lord,  and the 
catching away of His Church.  This post is not about a play on
words.   We will discuss "His presence," "the present," and "to 
present."  This  verb speaks about giving ourselves to Him as a
living "Sacrifice."

Acts 3: 13-16,  "The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of 
Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son, Jesus;
whom  ye delivered up,  and denied  him in  the presence of
Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.  But ye denied
the Holy one  and  the Just, and  desired a  murderer  to be
granted unto you; and killed the Prince of Glory, whom God
hath raised  from the dead;  whereof ye are witnesses."

     "For Christ is not entered into the holy places not made
with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into heaven
itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us." 
                                                                         Hebrews 9: 24

    11 Thessalonians 1: 24...  "Grace to you, and peace from 
God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  We are bound
     to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, 
because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of
everyone of you all toward each other aboundeth;  So that
 we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your
patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations
 that ye endure."

     I am convinced, if we would live in the presence of our
Lord, we must identify with his suffering, briefly mentioned
in the passage of Scripture from Acts Chapter three.  
 In II Thess. 1, the Apostle, commented on their endurance 
of the suffering brought on them for following our Lord.

   "Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of
God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God,
for which ye also suffer: Seeing it is a righteous thing with
God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;"
                                                                    11 Thess. 1:5-6

   It is also noteworthy, that our God does not let this slip.
He will bring tribulation upon those who trouble believers.
There is then, the culmination of all things.

   "And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the 
     Lord Jesus shall  be revealed from  heaven with his
     mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on
   them that know not God and that obey not the gospel
  of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Who shall be punished with
  everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord,
    and from the glory of his power."  1I Thess. 1: 7-10 

   "I BESEECH you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies
    of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice,
    holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable
     service.  And be not conformed to this world: but be
    ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye
      may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and 
         perfect, will of God." Romans 12: 1-2;  AMEN!!!

   "In the presence, of Jehovah; God Almighty, Prince of
   Peace.  Troubles vanish, hearts are mended, in the pre-
    sence of the King."  (Chorus)       
 


   

 

           

 
 
   

WHAT SHALL WE SEEK? MATTHEW 6:25-34

"Therefore I say unto you, 'Take no thought for your life, 
what shall ye eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your
body, what ye shall put on.  Is not the life more than meat,
and the body more than raiment?"   (vs. 25)

(" For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:)  for
your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all
these things.)  (vs. 32) 

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteous-
ness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (vs. 33) 

"Take therefore no thought for the morrow;  for the mor-
row shall take thought for the things of itself.  Sufficient
unto the day is the evil thereof."  (vs. 34) 

When I consider the "Sermon on the Mount," Chapters
5, 6, 7 of  Matthew, there is always conviction of  heart
about where my emphasis lies.  Is my goal to seek God's
kingdom and  his righteousness or am I about  the busi-
ness of working toward goals that are earth bound and
will not stand in eternity, before the Holy God. I believe
if we refrain from comparing ourselves with others and
simply stay  with the Lord God's "commands,"  we may
reach the place of pleasing the one before whom we will
stand or fall in judgment.  The earthly choices we make 
and our follow-up on these choices will determine gain
or loss at the Judgment Seat of Christ. The "Sermon on
the Mount" is a large part of the key...God bless as you
and I live it.                 

You might choose to read the complete text of chapter 6 
to get a more complete picture of our Lord's view of this
matter.  The part quoted above is the bare bones...

IDENTIFYING A FALSE PROPHET...

    First, let's  establish;  a prophet is one who
    preaches  the "Word of the Lord."  He may
   be one who foretells future events as enligh-
   tened by the Spirit of God or a modern day 
  "prophet"  who tells forth  the Scripture, as
   directed by the Spirit of God, who indwells
   believers.  When one preaches the Word of
   God as he is "filled" of the Holy Spirit, he
   is a  Prophet.  When one "preaches"  from
   the flesh, without the "filling," he is a false  
   prophet,  or apostate.  He may  do this out
   of ignorance, or with evil intent...Read the
   passage;  (Acts 18:24 thru 19:27)      

"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.  By
this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that
confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh
is of God, 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  Antichrist, which 
you have heard was coming, and is now already
in the world.  I John 4: 1-3, Romans 10: 8-10       

 "Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but
rather that ye may prophesy.  For he that speaketh in
an  unknown  tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto
God;  for no man understandeth him;  howbeit in the
Spirit he speaketh mysteries. But he that prophesieth,
speaks unto men to edification, and exhortation, and
comfort. He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edi-
fieth  himself;  but  he that  prophesieth  edifieth  the 
Church.  1 Corinthians 14:14  

     "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in 
       sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening 
     wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men 
       gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?"  
                                                     Matthew 7: 15-16

It is said of the Devil;  "Be sober, be vigilant; because your
adversary, the Devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, see-
king whom he may devour:"   When God makes a statement 
of a human ("prophet") having qualities similar to Satan, it 
is a serious, "damning" designation.

So, we see the false prophets are not of the Lord, but of the
"Adversary," Satan, or the Devil. They cannot speak truth,
for the message is always false and damnable. Their intent
is to  deceive, destroy and interfere with the work of God's
Spirit in this world.  Therefore,  there will be lies and half
truths in the message.  Some will be deceived, but the Lord
has chosen those who will see through Satan and his "Pro-
phets" through faithfulness to the Lord God and His Word.
That  Word  is  the  Spirit of  Jesus Christ.  We  neglect his
written Word to our peril.  (See  Psalm 119: 11, 105, John
1: 1, 14)

     In the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, we see;
     "He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and
  his name is called the Word of God." Revelation 19:13
