�Are you a church goer or a Christ follower�
A church goer is a believer but a Christ follower is a Christian (there�re Christ Like)
James 2:19-Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
1. A Believer believes in Jesus
*A Christian follows His commands
2. A believer goes to church on holidays
*A Christian knows that attending church is important to their faith and they fell not to
assemble themselves.
3. A Believer reads the bible when it�s convenient for them
*A Christian reads the bible regularly
4. A Believer prays when things get tough
*A Christian prays and give thanks no matter the circumstances
5. A Believer twist the bible to fit their lifestyle
*A Christian changes their lifestyle to resemble the teachings of the bible
6. A Believer pays tithes when there�s no risk
*A Christian pays tithes no matter the risk
7. A Believer knows about Jesus
*A Christians knows Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior
Matthew 7:21-27
The believer builds their house upon the sand, their not rooted or grounded in the word of God.
.
But a Christ follower has built their house upon the solid rock and Jesus Christ is their foundation, their rooted and grounded in the word of God.
Their connected to the vine!!
John 15:1-10
A believer gives up when the storms come,
A Christ follower is so deeply rooted and grounded in the Lord that when the storms rage and the winds blow they cannot be moved.
You see going to church doesn�t make you a Christian, even the devil goes to church and will even sit in the front row,
and the devil don�t care if you go to church either,
*he doesn�t care how fancy your clothes are,
*he doesn�t care what kind of car you drive,
*he doesn�t care how much money you�ve got in the bank,
*he doesn�t care about your race or your age,
*he doesn�t care about the position you hold in the church,
*he doesn�t even care that you�re a believer, because he also believes but trembles.
What the devil does care about is when you take on the name of Jesus Christ and are covered by the precious blood of Jesus Christ!!
He cares when you�re rooted and grounded in the word of God, when you take a stand and lift up that blood stained banner!!
*He cares when you become a soldier in the army of the Lord,
*He cares when you run the race and don�t look back, when you don�t look to the left or the right but you keep your eyes stayed on Jesus!!
*He cares when you become a worker in the vineyard,
when you become a tree that bears good fruit,
*He cares when you deny yourself and follow Jesus Christ,
*He cares when you become a witness for Jesus and spread the Gospel
*He cares when you become a prayer warrior and fight against the forces of darkness,
*He cares when you become saved by the Grace of God!!
*He cares when you become a stranger in this world, you�re in the world but not of the world, you�ve changed and no longer do the things you used to do because you�ve been adopted into a royal family, you�re a peculiar people a royal priest hood!!
The devil can�t stand it when you become a servant or slave to the Lord Jesus Christ!!
He can�t stand it when you go from a believer to a Christ follower!!
It�s time for us all to look at our walk with the Lord and decide are we just a believer or are we truly a Christ follower, a true Christian, are we Christ like!!

24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
� What I like about God is He doesn't call anyone else, He comes and takes care of it Himself.
Elect Lady Melissa Ballew WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF EASTER

Elect Lady Melissa Ballew WHAT IS THE TRUE MEANING OF EASTER ©

What is the true meaning of Easter? It's not about us, it's about the Lord Jesus Christ.
In order for me to tell you what Easter is about to a Christian, I am going to have to take you back a bit. You see it's not about that Easter Bunny, Easter is not about the hunting of the eggs and candy. It's not about your outfit, so if you came to Church to show off your new clothes, then you're in the wrong place. But if you came to Church seeking Jesus, you'll find Him, because He is here. If you came to Church looking for a healing, a deliverance, He's here. If you came to Church to serve Him, to praise and worship Him, He's here.
What is the true meaning of Easter? The Old testament is the foundation for the New, it tells us of a savior that's coming to set us free. It tells us of the promise of the savior that's coming to set us free.
The New Testament tells us about the birth, life, burial and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It tells us of our Savior. You see Jesus Christ always was and always will be God, from the foundation of the world He was God.
In the book of JOHN Chapter 1
Verses 1 and 2, it says;
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Verse 14 says;
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
You see, Jesus Christ always was and always will be God. In the beginning in the book of GENISIS and God, God was in the beginning. God is in the middle, in the end, God is all through the Bible. From the front to the back, Old Testament to the New Testament. He tells us of a savior that's coming to set us free.
Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, in Bethlehem. When He was a child He was found being about His Father's business in the temple preaching to the scholars. He made the lam walk, He made the blind see, He healed the sick, He raised the dead, He cast out demons, He walked on the water, He calmed the raging sea.
Jesus Christ is and always will be God.
ISAIAH 53:5
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
With His stripes we are healed, thanks be to God because of those stripes, those 39 stripes, He was beaten, He was bruised for you and me. He took on the cross, he did a debt that He didn't deserve, for sins that He never committed, for you and for me. His precious blood, what He did at the Cross, I'm not talking about a wooden beam. I'm talking about the finished work, what He did for you and me. Jesus Christ bore our pain and our sorrow. He took those 39 lashes, He wore a crown of thorns, He was beaten and bruised, He was spit on without a mumbling word. He was marched up a hill and nailed to a cross, for you and me. While He was being beaten, while He was being nailed He had each and every one of us on His mind. From the foundation of the world He knew what we were going to need. He knew, the sin we were going to commit but because of His love, because of His grace, His mercy, He went to that cross. He could have called for a legion of angels to carry Him home, He didn't have to go through that, but He saw fit to because of His love for you and me. He stretched out His arms on that cross, and between the sixth and the ninth hour, He held His head between the locks of His bosom, He said it is finished, He gave up the Ghost. When the Blood fell to the ground, there was a great earthquake , and it shook and it broke the vails of the temple, so that we are able to come to Him for ourselves.

Bishop Troy Ballew IT'S TIME TO CAST THE DEVIL OUT
Sunday Service, March 20, 2016 ©
GENISIS 3:15
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
This is the first prophecy of the Bible, this is where God is telling us that Jesus Christ is coming.
It's Time To Cast The Devil Out
Today we will start at LUKE 8:26
And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
� Anything that is contrary to the Word of God is demonic.
� Set "SELF" out of the way
� What is your demon today?
� Whatever it is, cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ.
� Satan is trying to rip you apart, he is trying to wear you down.
� You are not going through it alone, Jesus Christ is always with you.
� Some Christians are still bound up-It's time to cast the chains aside.
LUKE 8:27-39
27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.
29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)
30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.
32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.
33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.
34 When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
36 They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.
37 Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.
38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him.
When Jesus Christ ask him what his name was, he said Legion. The Bible speaks of 3,000 Soldiers being a legion (this was in reference to the possibility of how many demons were inside of him)
I myself had many demons inside of me, It took Jesus Christ to deliver me. If I would have died, I would be in Hell today.
� Satan is out to destroy you.
� There is no good sin and there is no little sin. Sin is sin.
� Keep your eyes on the Lord.
� There is nothing to hard for God to do..
You cannot buy your way into Heaven
� Whatever you are going through, take it to Jesus Christ
� Don't tell people your business if they are not living right, that's the same as telling it to satan.
� Sometimes we have to be like Jacob.
� Sometimes we give up to easily, God is able.
� There is power in the name, there is power in the cross.
� Don't let the Devil stop you.
Through it all stand on a solid foundation, Jesus Chris will see you through all of your trials and tribulations. He always has your back, He loves you. He didn't die on the cross to turn His back on you. You are going to go through some things, but you have to keep praying and seeking His face. God speaks to us, but it up to us to listen. Those that do the will of my Father, that is my true family. I love all of my family, but I won't follow them to Hell. For Christ I live, for Christ I die. He gave His all for us, He went through it all for us.

Bishop Troy Ballew Are You Free?

GALATIANS 5: 1-7
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
ROMANS 8: 1-9
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
JOHN 8: 28-36
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
JOHN 8: 28-36
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

JOSHUA 5: 13,14,15
13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?
14 And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant?
15 And the captain of the LORD'S host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.

Joshua Chapter 6
1 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
3And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
26 And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
27 So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
By Obeying God, Joshua was able to siege Jericho

1 SAMUEL 15:1-24 ©
1Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
6 And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.
8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
12 And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.
14 And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
16 Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
17 And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?
18 And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?
20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.
22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
1Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
6 And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.
8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,

Jesus and the Woman Taken in Adultery ©
John 8:1-11
1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Ye without sin cast the first stone...
We always have so many people that want to condemn us.
We were the dirt...God pulled up us out of the dirt...
None of us here are without sin, there is no one here without sin...who are you to condemn another person

2 CHRONICLES 7:12-22 ©
Verse 12, 13, 14
12 And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
What the Lord is saying through all the trials and tribulations, through all of the testing.
He is talking about the nations, He is talking about the Church, He is talking about your homes.
I tell you right now Church, there is one thig you have to do, seek His face�you have to humble yourselves, you have to turn from your wicked ways. If you want this land to be healed, you have to ask for forgiveness.
You have to come to Jesus and say, Lord have mercy on me, forgive me of my sins. Then God will heal your land, He�ll heal your home, he�ll heal the sick, he�ll heal the blind.
I tell you right now Church, Jesus Christ said in His words that He cannot lie, but the only way He will heal your home, the only way He will heal this lands if you seek His face. You have to turn from your wicked ways.
He said He will hear you from Heaven and forgive your sins, repentance, we have to repent. This nation has to repent, the nation has sinned against God�they have taken the crosses, they have taken the blood out of the Church, they have put in big screen TV�s and everything you can imagine in these Churches anymore. We need to go back to the old land marks, we need to go back and seek His face.
Glory be to God
Repentance is where it�s at, we need to humble ourselves.
Verse 15
15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.
For God to hear our prayers in this Church, we must humble ourselves and seek Gods face. We must come together in unity- be of one mind and one accord.
The Church has to pray for the nation, the Church has to pray for one another, the Church has to pray for the Ministers, the Church has to pray for the sick, the Church has to pray for the ones strung out on drugs and alcohol.
Glory to God
Verse 16
16 For now have I chosen and sanctified this house that my name may be there forever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
You see the only way the Holy Ghost will dwell in the house of God is by living in holiness. I tell you right now Church, if you�re not striving to live in holiness and in true righteousness, the spirit of God will not be there. There are many Churches on every corner but the spirit of God is not always there.
God said: I am looking for the house that is seeking and worshiping me in spirit and in truth. I tell you right now Church, if you want a blessing in your life it is time to serve God, in spirit and in truth.
Humble yourselves under the mighty hands of God and He will exalt you in due time. If you want a blessing, call upon the name of the Lord�Jesus Christ.
I�ll tell you right now, Jesus Christ is a Holy God, He is a righteous God and He is seeking those that live in true holiness.
A lot of people say that Christians are not truly Christians�I use to be one, I would say I am a Christian, I am a born again Christian, that�s what I would say: I didn�t know about being born again- you have to be born again by the water and the spirit.
A born again Christian: you no longer do the things that you use to do, you don�t go to the places you use to go to, and you don�t hang with the people you use to hang with. The Bible says if any man be in Christ Jesus, he is a new creature. Old things are passed away, all things become new when you are a true Christian.
I want to see: Raise your hand if you are a true lover of God, raise your hand if you know God is worthy�Keep your hand up�you need to praise God with your holy hands upon high because God is worthy. He has brought us all a mighty long ways, He has forgiven us of our sins when we�re not even worthy to be forgiven. I tell you right now, when He went to the cross and took the nails in His hands, I tell you right now�He didn�t say a word until He said It IS Finished. When it was finished He gave us life, in the blood of the Lamb.
Do you know Jesus? Glory to God
Verse 17
17 And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments;
He is letting you know how to walk, He is letting you know how to live. We need to live holy, righteous, sober and Godly�It says it in the book of Titus.
Some Christians, they believe they can live however they want to live, they think they can act any way they want to act�treat people any way that they want to treat them.
Verse 18
18 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.
I tell you right now, when God sent King David, He removed King Saul because King Saul was failing the test. So He had one in mind. He said to Samuel go to Jesse house, I have one I want you to anoint with oil. He went to Jesses sons and they were all tall and handsome looking soldiers. Samuel went with the oil and said no this is not the one, he goes to another one and said this is not the one. He went to seven of Jesse�s sons but they were not the one he was looking for. Jesse said I have one more son, he is in the field tending the sheep. So Samuel went out to the fields and there was a boy that had curly red hair. The Bible says he was good to look upon. God spoke to Samuels�s spirit and said: this is the one, so Samuel anointed David with the oil, because David was a man after God own heart.
How many are you here are after God�s own heart, I don�t know about you but I am after Gods own heart- I love the Lord. I don�t know about you�
If you�re not a real child of God, you better watch yourself because the spirit of evil will take over you. I don�t know about you but my God is a righteous God, I don�t know about you but my God is a holy God, I don�t know about you but my God is the god of Israel, I don�t know about you but my God owns the world.
God has someone to take your place, that�s why you need to be faithful until the end�Thie Bible says this: those that endure until the end, the same shaw be saved. Now you�re going to go through some things, the devil is going to mess with your mind, but stay faithful and stay strong and true to God. He will pull you through.
King David was a young man when he became King of Israel but he let them know that there was a King coming to take his place, His thrown shall not be moved�Jesus Christ. Our Gods kingdom shall not be moved, our God sets on the thrown most high, our God walks streets of gold, our God concurred death, our God, Jesus Christ� that�s my God and I�m not ashamed of that name. There are people that are ashamed of that name but they are going to see one day, because He said all eyes are going to see Him and all knees are going to bow and all tongues are going to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. The Devil is going to bow down also and his demons are trembling now, because our God is on His way back.
All right Church, are you part of the Bride, if you are a part of the Bide give God the glory�He�s on His way back.
Verse 19
19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
See this is the Old Testament and it�s going to show us, we can�t live any way we want to live. That�s the reason I don�t understand the churches all you have to do ius read Romans chapter 6�it will tell you.
I hear my wife say, if you put anything before God, then He�s not your God. God must come first in your life�the bible says in
Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
That is His word and if you want to be blessed in your life you have to obey the scriptures.
I had a license plate on my car and it read, If all else fails, read the instructions.
What instructions Pastor? The word of God, you can�t go wrong�you all are winners today, I�m so proud of everyone in here, you are on the winning side (but if you�re messing with the devil�you�re on the losing side) Don�t have any part with the devil, no don�t have no friendship with the devil. Like my wife said you can�t straddle the fence or you will get rubbed raw. Right now you�re clean, right now you are able to walk, some may walk with a limp but they are still walking. You are not dirty and you are not gaulded� you have been cleaned by the blood of the Lamb. I don�t know about you but I�ve been washed in the precious blood of Jesus Christ. It may take me a long journey, I may not feel good, may not see good, I may hurt in the back but I am sanctified in a living God and His name is Jesus Christ. No matter what you are going through, stay washed in the blood.

The Old Man V/S The New Man
Tue, 17th November, 2015
First Elect Melissa Ballew
God is in control ©
CORINTHIANS 2 9-15
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 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.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
Old Man V/S New Man...Natural V/S Spiritual
We are all born into the flesh
Everyone of us are born into sin.
We are saved by Grace, through of faith in Jesus Christ.
Our Fleshly Man becomes dormant once we become saved, he is still there he's not gone...
CORINTHIANS:3 1-4
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
It's all because of what He did at the cross...The finishes work He did, He shed His blood on the cross.
GALATIANS 5:19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
The old man will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
We are all to be Christ like, leave the old man behind.
We are a new creation in Christ Jesus...
The old things have passed away, all things become new.
IF JESUS WOULDN'T SAY OR DO IT THAN NEITHER SHOULD WE
IF JESUS WOULDN'T TOUCH IT, WE SHOULDN'T TOUCH IT.
THE NEW MAN IS THIS:
GALATIANS 5: 22-25
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
If we have put on that new man, our life we should profess that we are Christians...We crucify the flesh daily, we pick up that cross and we follow after Jesus Christ. We follow after Him and not ourselves.
We set self aside...Put on the new man, walk in Christ Jesus
It's the old man V/S the new man...there is a battle going on. Walk in Christ Jesus.
Once we take on salvation it's a battle field...
Old man V/S New man
The natural man will look after the flesh but the new man looks after the spirit. The natural man will do things for self, things that please the flesh.
We can no longer do things to please the flesh.
The spirit man does things to please God.
Be Christ Like, put on Jesus Christ. We become a new creation.
The old things pass away-All things become new.
Remember that old man is laying dormant, we have two natures we are battling for control within us...the spiritual and the natural. The flesh against the spirit...the one that you feed the most is the one that's going to win the battle. Which one are you feeding this morning?
THE ARENA IS IN YOUR MIND, IT IS THE BATTLE FIELD.
The flesh is sinful.
The nature of the new man is that of the Holy Ghost, it takes the Holy ghost to burn out all of that junk...to burn out that flesh.
Are you feeding that flesh more than you are the spirit man? If so, he is going to win the battle.
Flesh man causes discord, the natural man will dishonor God in the Church. The natural man will be disobedient to God in the Church. The natural man will be disobedient to Gods worthy Pastors, but the spiritual man, the new man will give out peace.
See the fall of Adam had an affect on his whole entire being...Spirit, soul and body. A condition that was passed to all of his descendants- It's called sin nature.
Upon salvation a dramatic reversal of this condition takes place.
A repentant sinner comes to the Cross of Christ.
A new creature is born within, that's the new man.
It's because of the Cross and Christ.
It's because of the finished work of Jesus Christ.
A new creation is born within, because of the work of Jesus Christ, because of the finishes work on the cross.
Stop giving into the flesh...it wasn't your flesh that woke you up this morning...IT WAS GOD.
2 CORINTHIANS 5:17
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
A New Creature: Inside the Church and outside of the Church...Be Christ like. Your greatest testimony is how you live outside of the Church. Not what you do on the inside of the Church. Take the mask off...Be Christ Like.
When we put on Christ Jesus we become a new creation.
Old things pass away, all things become new.
GALATIANS 5:17
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
The old man and the new man.
Again, the one you feed the most is the one that will win the battle.
The flesh is sinful.
The Holy Ghost will burn out the old.
Please God rather than the flesh.
CRUCIFY YOUR MIND
That's the arena of the battle.
2 TIMOTHY 3:5
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
Self-Righteousness, rebelliousness, that's the old man.
Paul declares in:
ROMANS 7:18
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
There is No GOOD Thing that dwell within the flesh. NOTHING.
There is nothing about us that is good-except to be born again, filled with that precious Holy Ghost...living to please God. There is no good thing that dwells in this flesh. Until we take on the New Bodies that God has for us.
We must understand the struggle, and it is a struggle.
If you are not fighting, then he has already won, he's already got you. We are all going to go through some things.
In Paul's epistle to the Corinthians he puts all Christians into two categories.
The Spiritual and the fleshly.
The two types consist of those that have learn to overcome the flesh, that's the spiritual and those that come by the
flesh, that's the carnal, that's the old man. Those that matured in Christ and those that stayed a baby-to be stuck where you are, you don't want to mature, you don't want to move on, you want to stay in the flesh...Self-Righteous with the mask of religion.
The Bishop can't see you but God can...God knows all and see's all. God knows when he searches the rains of the heart. He knows if you pray in Church or not. I declare this morning if you're playing in Church stop it, you better stop it. God knows all and He see's all...take that mask off, stop playing Church...Stop giving into your flesh and your fleshly desires. Do you take that mask off when you get home?
Pick up that cross and follow after Christ.
Our actions tell who and what we are.
Are you feeding the Spirit of the flesh?
We are all going through that struggle, feed the new man by coming to Church, stop giving into the flesh.
Where do you stand today with your walk?
ROMANS 7:14-25
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Something for everyone of us to think about, everyone of us...because we are all going through that struggle, we are all fighting that battle. When we come to Jesus, that flesh, we put it down. We pick up that cross and we follow after Christ. You feed that Spiritual man by picking up that your Bible, studying your Bible, fasting by spending that one on one time with God.
We must repent daily...
The flesh doesn't want anything to do with God. The flesh wants to please flesh and not God...that's why we have to crucify the flesh daily, it's a daily thing, we repent daily. It might be something that crossed your mind that shouldn't have been there, repent daily. We are either walking in the flesh or yielding to the old man. There is no middle grounds. You are either serving God or the devil...it's one of the two, because it can't be both.
There is no middle ground, you can't serve both.
Ride the fence and you'll rub yourself raw. Search your daily walk, where are you giving more time to? Are you feeding the spirit man or the fleshly man? Look within your heart and see which has more control over you, search your day to day walk and see what you're giving into the most. Are you spending more time on fleshly desires then you are spending time with God?
See we are married but if we don't nurture that relationship it's going to fall apart. That's like your relation shop with God, if you don't nurture it, it's going to fall apart. God desires that one on one time, you have to spend time with Jesus Christ if you want to grow.
Do you put the Bible up when you get home or do you pick it up daily?
God deserves that one on one time. Nothing else is more important than your soul. Don't let things take you away from your time with God.
Pray before you do anything and see if that is what God has in store for you.
The devil will paint a pretty picture, he will even make you think you are doing Gods work. He will get you messed up and off track. He will do what he can to drawl you away from the house of God, he will do what he can to keep you from serving God, he will take up all of your time so that you don't have time to hear Gods word...he mess up your mind so that your so discombobulated to even pray. He will get you so messed up and off track, he is a great deceiver, he is a manipulator. He will paint you a pretty picture...well I gotta go here, I gotta do this, they are expecting me. Is that where God want's you to be? Again the devil will make you think you are doing the work of God to drawl you away from God. Pray before you act on it, before you do anything.
It's the battle going on Church...which one are you feeding the most this morning? Which one are you giving into, which one are you feeding the most this morning?
Seek first the Kingdom of God...
Give the battle to God...
It was all done on the cross...
Don't sell out Jesus for anything...Don't sell out your birth right.
God is in control ©
CORINTHIANS 2 9-15
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 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.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
Old Man V/S New Man...Natural V/S Spiritual
We are all born into the flesh
Everyone of us are born into sin.
We are saved by Grace, through of faith in Jesus Christ.
Our Fleshly Man becomes dormant once we become saved, he is still there he's not gone...
CORINTHIANS:3 1-4
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
It's all because of what He did at the cross...The finishes work He did, He shed His blood on the cross.
GALATIANS 5:19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
The old man will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
We are all to be Christ like, leave the old man behind.
We are a new creation in Christ Jesus...
The old things have passed away, all things become new.
IF JESUS WOULDN'T SAY OR DO IT THAN NEITHER SHOULD WE
IF JESUS WOULDN'T TOUCH IT, WE SHOULDN'T TOUCH IT.
THE NEW MAN IS THIS:
GALATIANS 5: 22-25
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
If we have put on that new man, our life we should profess that we are Christians...We crucify the flesh daily, we pick up that cross and we follow after Jesus Christ. We follow after Him and not ourselves.
We set self aside...Put on the new man, walk in Christ Jesus
It's the old man V/S the new man...there is a battle going on. Walk in Christ Jesus.
Once we take on salvation it's a battle field...
Old man V/S New man
The natural man will look after the flesh but the new man looks after the spirit. The natural man will do things for self, things that please the flesh.
We can no longer do things to please the flesh.
The spirit man does things to please God.
Be Christ Like, put on Jesus Christ. We become a new creation.
The old things pass away-All things become new.
Remember that old man is laying dormant, we have two natures we are battling for control within us...the spiritual and the natural. The flesh against the spirit...the one that you feed the most is the one that's going to win the battle. Which one are you feeding this morning?
THE ARENA IS IN YOUR MIND, IT IS THE BATTLE FIELD.
The flesh is sinful.
The nature of the new man is that of the Holy Ghost, it takes the Holy ghost to burn out all of that junk...to burn out that flesh.
Are you feeding that flesh more than you are the spirit man? If so, he is going to win the battle.
Flesh man causes discord, the natural man will dishonor God in the Church. The natural man will be disobedient to God in the Church. The natural man will be disobedient to Gods worthy Pastors, but the spiritual man, the new man will give out peace.
See the fall of Adam had an affect on his whole entire being...Spirit, soul and body. A condition that was passed to all of his descendants- It's called sin nature.
Upon salvation a dramatic reversal of this condition takes place.
A repentant sinner comes to the Cross of Christ.
A new creature is born within, that's the new man.
It's because of the Cross and Christ.
It's because of the finished work of Jesus Christ.
A new creation is born within, because of the work of Jesus Christ, because of the finishes work on the cross.
Stop giving into the flesh...it wasn't your flesh that woke you up this morning...IT WAS GOD.
2 CORINTHIANS 5:17
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
A New Creature: Inside the Church and outside of the Church...Be Christ like. Your greatest testimony is how you live outside of the Church. Not what you do on the inside of the Church. Take the mask off...Be Christ Like.
When we put on Christ Jesus we become a new creation.
Old things pass away, all things become new.
GALATIANS 5:17
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
The old man and the new man.
Again, the one you feed the most is the one that will win the battle.
The flesh is sinful.
The Holy Ghost will burn out the old.
Please God rather than the flesh.
CRUCIFY YOUR MIND
That's the arena of the battle.
2 TIMOTHY 3:5
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
Self-Righteousness, rebelliousness, that's the old man.
Paul declares in:

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
There is No GOOD Thing that dwell within the flesh. NOTHING.
There is nothing about us that is good-except to be born again, filled with that precious Holy Ghost...living to please God. There is no good thing that dwells in this flesh. Until we take on the New Bodies that God has for us.
We must understand the struggle, and it is a struggle.
If you are not fighting, then he has already won, he's already got you. We are all going to go through some things.
In Paul's epistle to the Corinthians he puts all Christians into two categories.

Pick up that cross and follow after Christ.
Our actions tell who and what we are.
Are you feeding the Spirit of the flesh?
We are all going through that struggle, feed the new man by coming to Church, stop giving into the flesh.
Where do you stand today with your walk?
ROMANS 7:14-25
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Something for everyone of us to think about, everyone of us...because we are all going through that struggle, we are all fighting that battle. When we come to Jesus, that flesh, we put it down. We pick up that cross and we follow after Christ. You feed that Spiritual man by picking up that your Bible, studying your Bible, fasting by spending that one on one time with God.

You are either serving God or the devil...it's one of the two, because it can't be both.
There is no middle ground, you can't serve both.
Ride the fence and you'll rub yourself raw. Search your daily walk, where are you giving more time to? Are you feeding the spirit man or the fleshly man? Look within your heart and see which has more control over you, search your day to day walk and see what you're giving into the most. Are you spending more time on fleshly desires then you are spending time with God?
See we are married but if we don't nurture that relationship it's going to fall apart. That's like your relation shop with God, if you don't nurture it, it's going to fall apart. God desires that one on one time, you have to spend time with Jesus Christ if you want to grow.
Do you put the Bible up when you get home or do you pick it up daily?
God deserves that one on one time. Nothing else is more important than your soul. Don't let things take you away from your time with God.

It's the battle going on Church...which one are you feeding the most this morning? Which one are you giving into, which one are you feeding the most this morning?
Seek first the Kingdom of God...
Give the battle to God...
It was all done on the cross...
Don't sell out Jesus for anything...Don't sell out your birth right.
God Spoke To Me 10/18/2015
Tue, 27th October, 2015
God Spoke to me ©
God Spoke to me, we serve a mighty God:
It may not be for nobody in here...It maybe for somebody out there, But God spoke the Word.
We need to go back to the "Old Path" back to the Landmark.
In the book of Jeremiah 6:16-19
16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
God is calling for His people that have fallen away to repent.
The time is now to repent.
Before it's everlasting to late.
Just because you're sitting in the Church pew doesn't mean that you're saved...No more than sitting in a garage means you're a car.
Three thoughts to look at:
Judah has a pattern of rebellion...So does the Church
Jeremiah was preaching repentance...So do the true preachers
Jehovah has paths of righteousness...I am talking about Jesus Christ.
See our righteousness is just filthy rags, the righteousness of Jesus Christ is everlasting...
Why ask for the "Old Path"
Why do we need to go back to the "Old Landmark"
I'm glad you ask...
Because the new paths are delusional and destructive.
The new paths are mans substitution for the highway of God, which will only captivate you with doubt and dis-pare
See, it's not mans way, It's Gods way.
It's not man that can save you...It takes Jesus Christ, the blood of Jesus Christ and the finished work at the cross.
We have victory in His saving grace...Not mans. The "New Path" will lead you to Hell and destruction
The 'New Path" is taking God out of everything
The "New Path" is taking the Ten Commandments down out of the Courthouses, out of our schools, out of all the government places and would make you take it out of your yard.
The "New Path" has taken Prayer out of the schools and has allowed the Devil to come in.
The "New Path" has allowed the Devil to come into the Church Houses.
The "New Path:" has allowed many knobby knee preachers telling you it's okay to live how you want to live as long as you come to Church on Sunday, as long as you're putting money in the offering, that you're all right.
That is a lie from the pits of Hell.
Being a Christian is being Christ like.
Being a Christian is having a relationship with God.
You can't just go to Church and think that you are saved, it takes more than that.
And these Preachers need to start telling it, its time to go back to the old path
What is the "Old Path"? Its the path that Able, Enoch, Abraham, Moses, David and Elijah and so many more that have traveled,
As the Disciples of Jesus Christ traveled.
They accepted Gods Word. See the words was the lamp under their feet, the light unto their path. They trusted Jesus Christ, He is the sure foundation.
Jesus Christ is the only foundation to our hope.
It's not mans way, not Buddhas way, not Allah's way, not Joseph Smiths way, Not Mohammad, it is but Jesus Christ.
See, the revealed will of God is the "Old Path" that leads to peace...Its time to go back to the "Old Landmark" it's time to get back to the "Old Path"
The "Old Path" is sprinkled with the blood of atonement, see its that blood that saved us, the shedding of His precious blood is what saved us and set us free.
His precious blood is what sanctified us, its what redeemed us, renewed and restored us.
Its the blood of Jesus Christ...not man, its Jesus.
Time to go back to the "Old Landmark" Church...The "Old Path" is where we find the blood of Jesus Christ.
It takes the blood of Jesus Christ, that finished work at the Cross, what He already did for us. He paid the
price (for us).
Its more than going to Church and sitting in the pew, the devil will come into the Church House and sit in the front row.
See, I said Satan, I know where your seat is...
The Lord is wanting His people to return to Him, the time is NOW. Its drawling nigh we are a day closer than we were yesterday.
We are only a breath away from God calling us out of this world.
See, you're not promised your next breath...
He is warning His people...Just as he did in the book of Jeremiah.
When they had forsaken Him for their Idols, just as so many are doing it today.
They have forsaken the Lord Jesus Christ for Idols...
An Idol can be many different things, an Idol can be your T.V. , an Idol can be your phone, and Idol can be your Husband or your Wife. Anything that your're putting before God is an Idol.
And he is a jealous God.
See we live in a time where the principles of Gods words have been minimized and forsaken to fit the law of man.
The law of man is changing everything, the law of man has creeped into the Church Houses, that's where you have to get those nickle, dime preachers out from behind the pulpit that's sitting up there tickling ears. They wont stand on the word of God, they wont tell you the truth.
We see Churches trying to take the new path in order to build larger churches, no matter the cost.
To many Churches have fallen away from the word of God, and what thus says the Lord.
They've allowed the world to creep in just to drawl a crowd. So many Churches and Preachers are worried more about numbers and building a congregation, more than they are worrying about your soul.
See, it has to be about Kingdom building. A true man or woman of God would be more worried about your soul.
See, Gods not worried about numbers, It's about your soul.
We have to preach against sin, no sin will enter into the Kingdom of God.
I don't want my ear tickled, I want the truth, I want the true word of God.
Without the word of God the church can't stand.
Without the word of God there is no foundation.
Because Jesus Christ is the word. The word of God will drawl you or drive you.
Unless God builds a house your labor is in vain.
We have to stand on the word of God, we have to preach the word of God. We have to get back to the old "Landmark" , go back to the "Old Path"
The old path is not poplar, It's being abandoned by the people that think the new path is better, or that it's just more fitting for their life style. They are not ready or willing to give of the things of the world in order to live a true Christian life. You have people that will say, I want Church but I don't want to change, or they want the blessing of God but they don't want to go to Church...It doesn't work that way.
We have to many Churches that are creeping up and trying to change the Bible, trying to change the old faith. They are changing the worship, the preaching. They are trying to change everything in it. If they has their way they would change the Lord but guess what, God has not changed, No, God has not changed.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
God does not change...
It doesn't matter how many of those Churches you try to build, how much you try to the word, how big you're trying to get your congregation...God does not change...He's the same yesterday, today and forever.
Hallelujah - See, the battle has already been won. Hallelujah - when He went to the cross, when He shed his precious blood...It's finished, It's over, It's done...
All we have to do now is, walk there in according to God. Be obedient to God. The one
that sent the Lord...Hallelujah...see it's a;ready finished.
He gives us free will and a choice...If you go to Hell then it's your own fault.
Everybody that dies doesn't go to Heaven and these knobby knee preachers need to stop preaching this
and tell it like it is, Everyone that dies does not go to Heaven. If you die in sin, you're going to Hell.
These Preachers need to stop lying behind the Pulpit and telling people that they are in a better place,
that they are looking down on you.
Show me in the Bible where it says someone is looking down on you. That would make God a liar,
because he said I will wipe away your tears with my very finger. There is no sorrow in Heaven,
God does not lie, God does not change.
Man may be a liar but God doesn't lie, In the name of Jesus Christ.
I'm going to stand on the word of God, I'm standing behind the pulpit and I'm going to tell
you the truth, it doesn't matter if you like me or not, that's between you and God. Your blood
wont be on my hands - I will tell you the truth.
Malachi 3:6
For I am the Lord, I change not therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
If we are a child of God we will not be consumed. Hallelujah, Amen
The blood of Jesus Christ, Hallelujah, there is power in that blood. Hallelujah, there's saving
power in the blood of Jesus Christ.
We are talking about that finishes work, He died for you and me, so that we may have eternal life...Hallelujah
Not so we can live in sin.
If every one that dies goes to Heaven then Jesus wouldn't have had to go to the cross.
Let's keep it real...Jesus went to the cross because he loved us so much...he paid a sin debt that He did not owe.
We owed it all, and we are not worthy...
But thank God for his grace and mercy that endures forever...Thank and praise God.
He said that if I (You better hear me now) If I shall be lifted up I will drawl all men unto me.
He doesn't need the world creeping up into the Church Houses playing unGodly music, unGodly worship, unGodly praise and unGodly preaching to drawl people in.
Take the true word of God-Take the "Old Path" go back to the "Old Landmark" to the old preaching ways, to the old worship...In the name of Jesus Christ...Hallelujah.
We've got to travel down the old paths, there is nothing new, it's the same yesterday, today and forever.
He does not change-So who does man think they are to try and change the word of God? Printing out many different Bibles, taking away words, adding words...It'd the King James Version, The Inspired Word of God.
It' the word that's going to keep you- It's the word that drawls them in.
God Spoke to me, we serve a mighty God:
It may not be for nobody in here...It maybe for somebody out there, But God spoke the Word.
We need to go back to the "Old Path" back to the Landmark.
In the book of Jeremiah 6:16-19
16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
God is calling for His people that have fallen away to repent.
The time is now to repent.
Before it's everlasting to late.
Just because you're sitting in the Church pew doesn't mean that you're saved...No more than sitting in a garage means you're a car.
Three thoughts to look at:
Judah has a pattern of rebellion...So does the Church
Jeremiah was preaching repentance...So do the true preachers
Jehovah has paths of righteousness...I am talking about Jesus Christ.
See our righteousness is just filthy rags, the righteousness of Jesus Christ is everlasting...
Why ask for the "Old Path"
Why do we need to go back to the "Old Landmark"
I'm glad you ask...
Because the new paths are delusional and destructive.
The new paths are mans substitution for the highway of God, which will only captivate you with doubt and dis-pare
See, it's not mans way, It's Gods way.
It's not man that can save you...It takes Jesus Christ, the blood of Jesus Christ and the finished work at the cross.
We have victory in His saving grace...Not mans. The "New Path" will lead you to Hell and destruction
The 'New Path" is taking God out of everything
The "New Path" is taking the Ten Commandments down out of the Courthouses, out of our schools, out of all the government places and would make you take it out of your yard.
The "New Path" has taken Prayer out of the schools and has allowed the Devil to come in.
The "New Path" has allowed the Devil to come into the Church Houses.
The "New Path:" has allowed many knobby knee preachers telling you it's okay to live how you want to live as long as you come to Church on Sunday, as long as you're putting money in the offering, that you're all right.
That is a lie from the pits of Hell.
Being a Christian is being Christ like.
Being a Christian is having a relationship with God.
You can't just go to Church and think that you are saved, it takes more than that.
And these Preachers need to start telling it, its time to go back to the old path
What is the "Old Path"? Its the path that Able, Enoch, Abraham, Moses, David and Elijah and so many more that have traveled,
As the Disciples of Jesus Christ traveled.
They accepted Gods Word. See the words was the lamp under their feet, the light unto their path. They trusted Jesus Christ, He is the sure foundation.
Jesus Christ is the only foundation to our hope.
It's not mans way, not Buddhas way, not Allah's way, not Joseph Smiths way, Not Mohammad, it is but Jesus Christ.
See, the revealed will of God is the "Old Path" that leads to peace...Its time to go back to the "Old Landmark" it's time to get back to the "Old Path"
The "Old Path" is sprinkled with the blood of atonement, see its that blood that saved us, the shedding of His precious blood is what saved us and set us free.
His precious blood is what sanctified us, its what redeemed us, renewed and restored us.
Its the blood of Jesus Christ...not man, its Jesus.
Time to go back to the "Old Landmark" Church...The "Old Path" is where we find the blood of Jesus Christ.
It takes the blood of Jesus Christ, that finished work at the Cross, what He already did for us. He paid the
price (for us).
Its more than going to Church and sitting in the pew, the devil will come into the Church House and sit in the front row.
See, I said Satan, I know where your seat is...
The Lord is wanting His people to return to Him, the time is NOW. Its drawling nigh we are a day closer than we were yesterday.
We are only a breath away from God calling us out of this world.
See, you're not promised your next breath...
He is warning His people...Just as he did in the book of Jeremiah.
When they had forsaken Him for their Idols, just as so many are doing it today.
They have forsaken the Lord Jesus Christ for Idols...
An Idol can be many different things, an Idol can be your T.V. , an Idol can be your phone, and Idol can be your Husband or your Wife. Anything that your're putting before God is an Idol.
And he is a jealous God.
See we live in a time where the principles of Gods words have been minimized and forsaken to fit the law of man.
The law of man is changing everything, the law of man has creeped into the Church Houses, that's where you have to get those nickle, dime preachers out from behind the pulpit that's sitting up there tickling ears. They wont stand on the word of God, they wont tell you the truth.
We see Churches trying to take the new path in order to build larger churches, no matter the cost.
To many Churches have fallen away from the word of God, and what thus says the Lord.
They've allowed the world to creep in just to drawl a crowd. So many Churches and Preachers are worried more about numbers and building a congregation, more than they are worrying about your soul.
See, it has to be about Kingdom building. A true man or woman of God would be more worried about your soul.
See, Gods not worried about numbers, It's about your soul.
We have to preach against sin, no sin will enter into the Kingdom of God.
I don't want my ear tickled, I want the truth, I want the true word of God.
Without the word of God the church can't stand.
Without the word of God there is no foundation.
Because Jesus Christ is the word. The word of God will drawl you or drive you.
Unless God builds a house your labor is in vain.
We have to stand on the word of God, we have to preach the word of God. We have to get back to the old "Landmark" , go back to the "Old Path"
The old path is not poplar, It's being abandoned by the people that think the new path is better, or that it's just more fitting for their life style. They are not ready or willing to give of the things of the world in order to live a true Christian life. You have people that will say, I want Church but I don't want to change, or they want the blessing of God but they don't want to go to Church...It doesn't work that way.
We have to many Churches that are creeping up and trying to change the Bible, trying to change the old faith. They are changing the worship, the preaching. They are trying to change everything in it. If they has their way they would change the Lord but guess what, God has not changed, No, God has not changed.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
God does not change...
It doesn't matter how many of those Churches you try to build, how much you try to the word, how big you're trying to get your congregation...God does not change...He's the same yesterday, today and forever.
Hallelujah - See, the battle has already been won. Hallelujah - when He went to the cross, when He shed his precious blood...It's finished, It's over, It's done...
All we have to do now is, walk there in according to God. Be obedient to God. The one
that sent the Lord...Hallelujah...see it's a;ready finished.
He gives us free will and a choice...If you go to Hell then it's your own fault.
Everybody that dies doesn't go to Heaven and these knobby knee preachers need to stop preaching this
and tell it like it is, Everyone that dies does not go to Heaven. If you die in sin, you're going to Hell.
These Preachers need to stop lying behind the Pulpit and telling people that they are in a better place,
that they are looking down on you.
Show me in the Bible where it says someone is looking down on you. That would make God a liar,
because he said I will wipe away your tears with my very finger. There is no sorrow in Heaven,
God does not lie, God does not change.
Man may be a liar but God doesn't lie, In the name of Jesus Christ.
I'm going to stand on the word of God, I'm standing behind the pulpit and I'm going to tell
you the truth, it doesn't matter if you like me or not, that's between you and God. Your blood
wont be on my hands - I will tell you the truth.
Malachi 3:6
For I am the Lord, I change not therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
If we are a child of God we will not be consumed. Hallelujah, Amen
The blood of Jesus Christ, Hallelujah, there is power in that blood. Hallelujah, there's saving
power in the blood of Jesus Christ.
We are talking about that finishes work, He died for you and me, so that we may have eternal life...Hallelujah
Not so we can live in sin.
If every one that dies goes to Heaven then Jesus wouldn't have had to go to the cross.
Let's keep it real...Jesus went to the cross because he loved us so much...he paid a sin debt that He did not owe.
We owed it all, and we are not worthy...
But thank God for his grace and mercy that endures forever...Thank and praise God.
He said that if I (You better hear me now) If I shall be lifted up I will drawl all men unto me.
He doesn't need the world creeping up into the Church Houses playing unGodly music, unGodly worship, unGodly praise and unGodly preaching to drawl people in.
Take the true word of God-Take the "Old Path" go back to the "Old Landmark" to the old preaching ways, to the old worship...In the name of Jesus Christ...Hallelujah.
We've got to travel down the old paths, there is nothing new, it's the same yesterday, today and forever.
He does not change-So who does man think they are to try and change the word of God? Printing out many different Bibles, taking away words, adding words...It'd the King James Version, The Inspired Word of God.
It' the word that's going to keep you- It's the word that drawls them in.

Our Sunday School Lesson came from the Bishop ©
For this lesson we need to start at the beginning
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Man must be head of his household.
There needs to be submission from a wife to her husband.
A woman is to be submissive first to God then her husband.
If a woman does not have a husband, then she needs to submissive to God.
Genesis 2: 16-18
16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
God told Adam and Eve they could eat freely from ever tree except the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Satan had other plans. The Church is the bride of God
Jesus Christ is the tree of life.
The Holy Ghost is neither male or female.
There is a role for women in the church, a woman can preach, a woman can teach, a woman can minister.
Genesis 3:12-20
12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
A woman does need to have food on the table for her husband. A healthy woman doesn't need to be laying up in the bed or not doing anything all day while her husband is out working. A woman needs to be taking care of the house and her children, and she needs to have things ready when her husband gets home.
A woman needs to ensure that her children are raised right. They need to be taught right from wrong, to be taught about God, to know who Jesus Christ is.
Again a woman must submit to God and then her husband.
We have to do all things in order.
A woman needs to be praying for her husband.
This in no way means that a husband is not to take care of his wife, a husband need to respect his wife as well. A man need to help raise his children right, teach them about how to be.
A man need to get out and work to take care of his family.
A husband and wife need to be pleasing and taking care of each other.
You need to be in your homes like you are in Church, we need to treat each other with respect.
There was a time when a woman could't even set with her husband at church.
Timothy 2:9-15
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
A christian woman needs to be as God made them to be. They need to carry herself appropriately, watch how you're dressing. A woman doesn't need to be showing everything, you do not need to be wearing short short skirts and showing a bunch of cleavage.
When you come to church you can wear pant's or a dress, just come to church, it's up to you what you wear just dress appropriately thats all.
Christian women of the church need to be talking to the younger women in the church, helping to guide them and help teach them about being a good christian woman.
Respect will protect you from vanity, that is for men and women.
The men of the church need to be teaching and guiding the you men of the church. We have two Deacon's in training, the elder men of the church need to be helping to guide them in the right direction.
We can't go around pointing fingers at each other , we need to be helping to guide each other. This is for men and women.
God is taking note's: we need to remember that.
No matter what you're doing and it doesn't matter where you are. God id there and he is watching and taking notes.
We need to be praying : We need to be praying before we do things, pray to do the right things.
With a husband and wife it's team work. Obedience
A man and a woman need to be of even yoke.
As far as mixed marriages, God doesn't see color, he sees's obedience to Him.
We must remember the last shall be first and the first shall be last.
A man needs to govern his home.
Children have no need to be around grown up talk.
They don't need to be spending all their time playing games and watching T.V.
A man needs to be Priest of his home.
Children do not need to be disrespecting their mother and father.
Parents need to stand together raising children. If the dad says no, the mother doesn't need to be telling the children yes. This works both ways for the parents.
1 Corinthians 14:33
For God is not the author of confusion. but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
We need to be of one mind and one accord.
The church is to be waiting for Jesus Christ to come back.
We need to have obeisance to God, it's a sin not to.
Bishop gave a challenge to woman- pray daily
pray for our husbands, pray for things to be run in order.
We need to be the same way at home as we are in the church.
Don't be a church angel and a house devil
People are being deceived because they are not studying the word of God.
Woman and men have to be strong in the Lord- Don't be deceived.
There is a reason God put this upon me to teach this today.
Your sins will find you out.
Ministers have to be stronger than their flock.
Proverbs 14:1
1 Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.
A woman that isn't a christian can tare down her home, a wise woman will be a christian and run her home as one.
A woman will stand by a good man and learn her roll and hoe to carry herself.
Husbands and wives need to be praying together.
Husbands and wives need to be submissive to each other.
Confusion in the home means your not walking together.
We have to be different then the world.
We need to be more like Jesus, we need to learn to put God first in our lives.
For this lesson we need to start at the beginning
