Judgment Begins At The House Of God!

The Lord said to me this morning: "Everyone Who Wants To Come Under My Judgment Must Be Chastened"

The Holy Spirit has been teaching me over the past few months about the judgment and chastening of the Lord. Many Christians don't truly understand why God judges, disciplines, or chastens them and why His judgment comes upon a nation, but this is what God does to correct, train, humble, and bring His people to repentance.

1st Peter 4:17-18

"For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? Now “If the righteous one is scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”

These are very sobering words from Peter and the Lord is judging His house today!

Isaiah 26:9,16

"With my soul I have desired You in the night, Yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early; For when Your judgments are in the earth, The inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness."

"LORD, in trouble they have visited You, They poured out a prayer when Your chastening was upon them."

Hebrews 12:3-11

"For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls. You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin. And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: “My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him; For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives.” If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons. Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness. Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it."

Jesus tells us in Revelation 3:19

"As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent."

This is the way of the Lord, He judges, rebukes, and chastens those He loves!

Let's take a look at the Greek definition of the word 'rebuke'

1651. elegcho el-eng'-kho of uncertain affinity; to confute, admonish:--convict, convince, tell a fault, rebuke, reprove.

Merriam Webster's definition says:

a: to criticize sharply : reprimand

We see an example of a rebuke in Matthew 16:21-23

"From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day. Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!” But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

The word 'chasten' means:

3811. paideuo pahee-dyoo'-o from 3816; to train up a child, i.e. educate, or (by implication), discipline (by punishment):--chasten(-ise), instruct, learn, teach.

The word 'judgment' means:

2917. krima kree'-mah from 2919; a decision (the function or the effect, for or against ("crime")):--avenge, condemned, condemnation, damnation, + go to law, judgment.

The Lord judges His people and the world that we may all learn righteousness. He chastens us so that we may be partakers of His holiness, and He rebukes us when we are in error. These are a few of the ways God loves His sons and daughters. May we all humble ourselves under His mighty right hand and receive the judgments and chastisement of the Lord that our souls may be ready for the return of the King!

In His Service,

A Alma que Pecar Morrera!

Quinta-feira, 26 de maio de 2011

This message is found written in English as well "The Soul Who Sins Shall Die" on May 26th,2011

Gostaria de compartilhar uma palavra que o Espírito Santo me deu enquanto eu e meu marido estávamos orando esta noite porque eu acredito que o Senhor está usando muitos vasos (pessoas que acreditam Nele e o obedecem e tem o Espirito Santo habitando neles)  para avisar aos pecadores que se arrependam e creiam no Evangelho para que sejam capazes de viver! Então, estou obedecendo a esse chamado para o resto dos meus dias, pelo poder do Espírito Santo e Sua força!

Quando estávamos orando houve uma forte presença do Senhor e não pude conter minhas lágrimas e ouvi: Ezequiel 18 . Eu entendo que esta mensagem de Ezequiel 18, foi para o povo de Judá, mas a mensagem de Ezequiel  18  hoje nos chama para mudar nossas mentes (arrependimento) para que possamos  viver.

EZEQUIEL 18


1De novo veio a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
2Que quereis vós dizer, citando na terra de Israel este provérbio: Os pais comeram uvas verdes, e os dentes dos filhos se embotaram? 3Vivo eu, diz e Senhor Deus, não se vos permite mais usar deste provérbio em Israel. 4Eis que todas as almas são minhas; como o é a alma do pai, assim também a alma do filho é minha: a alma que pecar, essa morrerá. 5Sendo pois o homem justo, e procedendo com retidão e justiça, 6não comendo sobre os montes, nem levantando os seus olhes para os ídolos da casa de Israel, nem contaminando a mulher do seu próximo, nem se chegando ã mulher na sua separação; 7não oprimindo a ninguém, tornando, porém, ao devedor e seu penhor, e não roubando, repartindo e seu pão com o faminto, e cobrindo ao nu com vestido; 8não emprestando com usura, e não recebendo mais de que emprestou, desviando a sua mão da injustiça, e fazendo verdadeira justiça entre homem e homem; 9andando nos meus estatutos, e guardando as minhas ordenanças, para proceder segundo a verdade; esse é justo, certamente viverá, diz o Senhor Deus, 10E se ele gerar um filho que se torne salteador, que derrame sangue, que faça a seu irmão qualquer dessas coisas; 11e que não cumpra com nenhum desses deveres, porém coma sobre os montes, e contamine a mulher de seu próximo, 12oprima ao pobre e necessitado, pratique roubos, não devolva o penhor, levante os seus olhos para os ídolos, cometa abominação, 13empreste com usura, e receba mais do que emprestou; porventura viverá ele? Não viverá! Todas estas abominações, ele as praticou; certamente morrerá; o seu sangue será sobre ele. 14Eis que também, se este por sua vez gerar um filho que veja todos os pecados que seu pai fez, tema, e não cometa coisas semelhantes, 15não coma sobre os montes, nem levante os olhos para os ídolos da casa de Israel, e não contamine a mulher de seu próximo, 16nem oprima a ninguém, e não empreste sob penhores, nem roube, porém reparta o seu pão com o faminto, e cubra ao nu com vestido; 17que aparte da iniqüidade a sua mão, que não receba usura nem mais do que emprestou, que observe as minhas ordenanças e ande nos meus estatutos; esse não morrerá por causa da iniqüidade de seu pai; certamente viverá.
18Quanto ao seu pai, porque praticou extorsão, e roubou os bens do irmão, e fez o que não era bom no meio de seu povo, eis que ele morrerá na sua iniqüidade. 19contudo dizeis: Por que não levará o filho a iniqüidade do pai? Ora, se o filho proceder com retidão e justiça, e guardar todos os meus estatutos, e os cumprir, certamente viverá. 20A alma que pecar, essa morrerá; o filho não levará a iniquidade do pai, nem o pai levará a iniquidade do filho, A justiça do justo ficará sobre ele, e a impiedade do ímpio cairá sobre ele. 21Mas se o ímpio se converter de todos os seus pecados que cometeu, e guardar todos os meus estatutos, e preceder com retidão e justiça, certamente viverá; não morrerá. 22De todas as suas transgressões que cometeu não haverá lembrança contra ele; pela sua justiça que praticou viverá. 23Tenho eu algum prazer na morte do ímpio? diz o Senhor Deus. Não desejo antes que se converta dos seus caminhos, e viva? 24Mas, desviando-se o justo da sua justiça, e cometendo a iniqüidade, fazendo conforme todas as abominações que faz o ímpio, porventura viverá? De todas as suas justiças que tiver feito não se fará memória; pois pela traição que praticou, e pelo pecado que cometeu ele morrerá. 25Dizeis, porém: O caminho do Senhor não é justo. Ouvi, pois, ó casa de Israel: Acaso não é justo o meu caminho? não são os vossos caminhos que são injustos? 26Desviando-se o justo da sua justiça, e cometendo iniqüidade, morrerá por ela; na sua iniqüidade que cometeu morrerá. 27Mas, convertendo-se o ímpio da sua impiedade que cometeu, e procedendo com retidão e justiça, conservará este a sua alma em vida. 28pois que reconsidera, e se desvia de todas as suas transgressões que cometeu, certamente viverá, não morrerá. 29Contudo, diz a casa de Israel: O caminho do Senhor não é justo. Acaso não são justos os meus caminhos, ó casa de Israel, Não são antes os vossos caminhos que são injustos? 30Portanto, eu vos julgarei, a cada um conforme os seus caminhos, ó casa de Israel, diz o Senhor Deus. Vinde, e convertei-vos de todas as vossas transgressões, para que a iniqüidade não vos leve a perdição. 31Lançai de vós todas as vossas transgressões que cometestes contra mim; e criai em vós um coração novo e um espírito novo; pois, por que morrereis, ó casa de Israel, 32Porque não tenho prazer na morte de ninguém, diz o Senhor Deus; convertei-vos, pois, e vivei.

Creio que o Senhor quer alertar a todos que Ele é um Deus de amor, mas Ele também é o Juiz dos que são iniquos e não querem se arrepender (mudar sua mente e pensar de maneira diferente) e obedecer aos Seus mandamentos! Os caminhos de Deus são totalmente justos , mas se você não viver de acordo com Seus padrões você será definitivamente julgado por Deus! E estas são palavras Dele, não minhas!

O Senhor não quer que nenhum de nós se perca ou morra, mas para vivermos, precisamos viver para Ele, é preciso viver de acordo com o que Ele diz que devemos fazer e os que lhe obedecem  definitivamente viverao e viverao  eternamente com Ele. ! E a chave para obedecer é  primeiro CRER!

Este é o chamado que o Senhor está fazendo hoje para aqueles que acreditam que os pecados de seus pais sempre terao poder sobre suas vidas, e vice-versa,  isso não é verdade! Se você se arrepender (mudar sua mente, pensar diferente), crer no evangelho e deixar os seus pecados hoje, e viver para Cristo, nenhuma maldição, nenhum espírito familiar estarao mais sobre a sua vida , você tem apenas que dar o primeiro passo e pensar diferente hoje!

Esta é também uma mensagem para aqueles que acreditam que só porque eles são filhos de apóstolos, pastores, evangelistas, profetas, etc ... eles são verdadeiros cristãos e seguidores de Cristo! Você não é um seguidor de Cristo só porque você tem um pai fiel, mãe, primo, filho, filha, etc .. Você é apenas um seguidor de Cristo se você crer no evangelho, se arrepender e fizer o que Jesus lhe diz para fazer! E o Senhor não pede a ninguém para estar pecando e continuar pecando. Então, se você crer no evangelho, se arrepender e seguir a Cristo e os Seus caminhos você vai viver, mas se você continuar nessa vida de pecado que você certamente irá morrer, pois o salário do pecado é a morte!

Eu oro para que esta mensagem possa ajudá-lo a entender que a alma que pecar essa morrerá, eu oro para que você acredite nessa mensagem e aja a respeito dela  em nome de Jesus Cristo.

João 3:18

Quem crê Nele (Jesus Cristo) não é condenado, mas quem não crê já está condenado, porquanto não crê no nome do unigênito Filho de Deus.

No amor de Cristo,

Cynthia R. Palmer

Mateus 7:13-14
Entrai pela porta estreita; porque larga é a porta, e espaçoso o caminho que conduz a perdição, e muitos são os que entram por ela; e porque estreita é a porta, e apertado o caminho que conduz a vida, e poucos são os que a encontram.

The Soul Who Sins Shall Die!


I would like to share a word that the Holy Spirit gave me while me and my husband were praying tonight because I do believe the Lord is using many vessels to warn sinners to repent and believe the gospel for them to be able to live! So, I am obeying this call for the rest of my days by the power of the Holy Spirit and His strenght!

When we were praying there was a strong presence of the Lord and I could not hold my tears and I heard: EZEKIEL 18.   I do understand that this message of Ezekiel 18 was for the people of Judah, but the message of Ezekiel 18 calls us to change our minds (repent) in order to LIVE.

A False Proverb Refuted

1 The word of the LORD came to me again, saying, 2 “What do you mean when you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying:

‘ The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
And the children’s teeth are set on edge’?

3As I live,” says the Lord GOD, “you shall no longer use this proverb in Israel.
4 Behold, all souls are Mine;
The soul of the father
As well as the soul of the son is Mine
;
The soul who sins shall die.
5 But if a man is just
And does what is lawful and right;
6 If he has not eaten on the mountains,
Nor lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife,
Nor approached a woman during her impurity;
7 If he has not oppressed anyone,
But has restored to the debtor his pledge;
Has robbed no one by violence,
But has given his bread to the hungry
And covered the naked with clothing;
8 If he has not exacted usury
Nor taken any increase,
But has withdrawn his hand from iniquity
And executed true judgment between man and man;
9 If he has walked in My statutes
And kept My judgments faithfully—
He is just;
He shall surely live!”
Says the Lord GOD.
10“ If he begets a son who is a robber
Or a shedder of blood,
Who does any of these things
11 And does none of those duties,
But has eaten on the mountains
Or defiled his neighbor’s wife;
12 If he has oppressed the poor and needy,
Robbed by violence,
Not restored the pledge,
Lifted his eyes to the idols,
Or committed abomination;
13 If he has exacted usury
Or taken increase—
Shall he then live?
He shall not live!
If he has done any of these abominations,
He shall surely die;
His blood shall be upon him.
14If, however, he begets a son
Who sees all the sins which his father has done,
And considers but does not do likewise;
15 Who has not eaten on the mountains,
Nor lifted his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife;
16 Has not oppressed anyone,
Nor withheld a pledge,
Nor robbed by violence,
But has given his bread to the hungry
And covered the naked with clothing;
17 Who has withdrawn his hand from the poor[a]
And not received usury or increase,
But has executed My judgments
And walked in My statutes—
He shall not die for the iniquity of his father;
He shall surely live!
18As for his father,
Because he cruelly oppressed,
Robbed his brother by violence,
And did what is not good among his people,
Behold, he shall die for his iniquity.


Turn and Live

19 “Yet you say, ‘Why should the son not bear the guilt of the father?’ Because the son has done what is lawful and right, and has kept all My statutes and observed them, he shall surely live. 20 The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. 21 “But if a wicked man turns from all his sins which he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22 None of the transgressions which he has committed shall be remembered against him; because of the righteousness which he has done, he shall live. 23 Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?” says the Lord GOD, “and not that he should turn from his ways and live? 24 “But when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, shall he live? All the righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; because of the unfaithfulness of which he is guilty and the sin which he has committed, because of them he shall die.
25 “Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ Hear now, O house of Israel, is it not My way which is fair, and your ways which are not fair? 26 When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, commits iniquity, and dies in it, it is because of the iniquity which he has done that he dies. 27 Again, when a wicked man turns away from the wickedness which he committed, and does what is lawful and right, he preserves himself alive. 28 Because he considers and turns away from all the transgressions which he committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 29 Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ O house of Israel, is it not My ways which are fair, and your ways which are not fair? 30 “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways,” says the Lord GOD. “Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin. 31 Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O house of Israel? 32 For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord GOD. “Therefore turn and live!”

I believe the Lord wants to warn everyone that He is a loving God, but He is  also the Judge of those who are wicked and do not want to repent (change their mind and think differently) and obey His commands! His ways are fair and are just, but if you do not live according to His standards you will definitely be judged by God! And these are His words, not mine!

The Lord does not want any of us to perish or die, but in order to live we need to live for Him, we need to live according to what He says we must do and those who obey Him will definetely live and live forever with Him! And the key to obey is first to BELIEVE!

This is the call the Lord is doing today for those who believe that the sins of their parents will always have power upon their lives, and vice-verse, this is not true! If you repent (change your mind, think differenly), believe the gospel and turn away from your sins today and live for Christ, no curse, no familiar spirits will be upon your lives any longer, you have just to give the first step thinking differently today!

This is also a call for those who believe that just because they are children of apostles, pastors, evangelists, prophets, etc....they are true christians or followers of Christ! You are not a follower of Christ just because you have a faithful father, mother, cousin, son, daughter, etc...You are only a follower of Christ IF you BELIEVE the gospel, REPENT and DO what JESUS tells you to do! And the Lord does not ask anyone to be sinning and keep sinning. So, IF you BELIEVE the gospel, REPENT and follow Christ and His ways you will live, but if you keep in this life of sin you will surely die, for the wages of sin is death!

I pray that this message may help you understand that the soul that sins shall die,I pray that you believe this message and act upon it in the name of Jesus Christ.

John 3:18

He who believes in Him (Jesus Christ)  is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

In the love of Christ,

Tornado In The Storm



I really feel I need to share this because the Lord has been extremely faithful with some dreams He has been giving to me lately and I also need to share with others what He has been entrusting me.

My prayer: Lord, I give all the glory to You for all the gifts you have been giving to me and I want to do your will with everything you are  entrusting me,  sharing or offering my prayers towards all the events and things you reveal and hopefully all who read and believe them be advised by your love and faithfulness in the name of Jesus. Amem!

Yesterday, me, my husband and our daughter went to a wedding of an ex-co-worker of mine in Libertyville, IL and my husband knew through the forecast that it would happen a thunderstorm, so before we left he prayed and asked the Lord to protect us all and also for the Lord to hold the storm until we were safe home and also all those who were going to the wedding.

Well....we decided to leave earlier from the time that the wedding would really end and when we put the baby in the car and put everything in the car it started to rain. We could also see that the clouds and the sky were very different from a normal rain. We kept praying and asking the Lord to protect us all the way home because there were a lot of lightinings too.

For the glory of God we could arrive home safe. I did everything I needed to do before going to bed, my husband went to bed before me to wake up early to go to work. When I went to bed, he was already half sleep. It was very strange that after a very tiring day I was not sleepy!

I tried to sleep but I could not. I said: "I cannot sleep" And I also started praying that if anything would happen for the Lord to reveal it to me in a dream or something. I was starting to feel the same heavy thing from sometime ago that something was about to happen and lives were envolved.

So, after probably one hour or two I was able to sleep and I had a terrible dream. In this dream the sky was full of dark clouds as if it would happen a very terrible storm. The clouds started getting dark blue and very suddenly they became dark gray and in a question of seconds a tornado formed in the clouds and started coming down to the ground and I could see that this tornado was formed in the sky, I could see the dark kind of black hole in the sky that this tornado formed and in the dream I knew this was something very terrible that would happen wherever this tornado passed through. Then it finished the dream.

I told my husband in the morning that I dreamed of a terrible storm and I was half sleep and he said I could tell him when he called me from his work in his break. But I decided to share this dream because it was extremely quick how the Lord made this dream come true, for I turned on the TV today in the morning and I saw the devastating storm+tornado that happened in Joplin, Missouri where there was a huge devastation and already 89 people were killed.

May the Lord have mercy upon the people in Missouri and all over the world and may all of us fall on our knees and give our hearts and obedience to the Lord while there is still time!

In awe of God's faithfulness,

Cynthia R. Palmer

America Divided?


Good Morning to all the saints of the Lord,

Today in the morning while me and my husband were praying, I heard:

"I WILL DO EXACTLY AS I SAID" and right after I received Jeremiah 18.

Me and my husband believe that if Obama forces Netanyahu to divide the land of Israel to make two states, God's judgements will fall in America very quick.

The Potter and the Clay

Jeremiah 18

"The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying: “Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.” Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something at the wheel. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter; so he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make. 

Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter?” says the LORD. “Look, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel! The instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, to pull down, and to destroy it, if that nation against whom I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to bring upon it. And the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it, if it does evil in My sight so that it does not obey My voice, then I will relent concerning the good with which I said I would benefit it. 

“Now therefore, speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Behold, I am fashioning a disaster and devising a plan against you. Return now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.”’”

God’s Warning Rejected

And they said, “That is hopeless! So we will walk according to our own plans, and we will every one obey the dictates of his evil heart.” Therefore thus says the LORD: “Ask now among the Gentiles, Who has heard such things? The virgin of Israel has done a very horrible thing. Will a man leave the snow water of Lebanon, Which comes from the rock of the field? Will the cold flowing waters be forsaken for strange waters?  “Because My people have forgotten Me, They have burned incense to worthless idols. And they have caused themselves to stumble in their ways, From the ancient paths, To walk in pathways and not on a highway, To make their land desolate and a perpetual hissing; Everyone who passes by it will be astonished  And shake his head. I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy; I will show them the back and not the face In the day of their calamity.”

Jeremiah Persecuted

"Then they said, “Come and let us devise plans against Jeremiah; for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come and let us attack him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.” Give heed to me, O LORD, And listen to the voice of those who contend with me! Shall evil be repaid for good? For they have dug a pit for my life. Remember that I stood before You To speak good for them, To turn away Your wrath from them. Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, And pour out their blood By the force of the sword; Let their wives become widows And bereaved of their children. Let their men be put to death,

Their young men be slain By the sword in battle. Let a cry be heard from their houses, When You bring a troop suddenly upon them; For they have dug a pit to take me, And hidden snares for my feet. Yet, LORD, You know all their counsel Which is against me, to slay me. Provide no atonement for their iniquity, Nor blot out their sin from Your sight; But let them be overthrown before You. Deal thus with them In the time of Your anger." 

And yesteday as I was praying I received Jonah 3. I believe it is also very interesting to be reading it.

May God keep warning us and preparing us all in our souls for what is to come,

In Christ,
Cynthia R. Palmer

************************************************************

I (Tyrone) also received these words in February of this year: "Be Ready When The Dividing Comes"

I believe these words could be connected to the division of the promised land that God gave to His people Israel. The covenant that He made with Abram and his descendants is still in effect! Remember when Bush demanded Ariel Sharon to expel Jewish settlers from Gush Katif and Shomron? Exactly seven days after that, Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and two other states!

This could very well happen again as Obama meets with Netanyahu today to discuss the borders of Israel and Palestine. He has already said that Israel should return to pre-1967 borders which would drastically reduce the size of Israel and further divide their land. If this happens I truly believe that God's judgment will fall shortly thereafter, and He will do to America what is done to Israel.

In Him,
Tyrone

Senhor, O Que Devo Fazer Para Ser Salvo?

Por: Tyrone Palmer
Traducao: Cynthia Palmer
Sábado, 4 de Dezembro de 2010
This Message can be found in our blog written in English on December 4th, 2010

 Marcos 16:14-18

 "Por último, então, apareceu aos onze, estando eles reclinados a mesa, e lançou-lhes em rosto a sua incredulidade e dureza de coração, por não haverem dado crédito aos que o tinham visto já ressurgido. E disse-lhes: Ide por todo o mundo, e pregai o evangelho a toda criatura. Quem crer e for batizado será salvo; mas quem não crer será condenado.E estes sinais acompanharão aos que crerem: em meu nome expulsarão demônios; falarão novas línguas; pegarão em serpentes; e se beberem alguma coisa mortífera, não lhes fará dano algum; e porão as mãos sobre os enfermos, e estes serão curados.  ".

Estas palavras de Jesus Cristo aos seus apóstolos sao suficientes para acabar com essa mensagem aqui mesmo, mas infelizmente nestes últimos dias com tanto engano e  fortes ilusoes essas escrituras foram encobertas, como se não existissem para aqueles que afirmam que salvação é tao somente pela fé , "Você não precisa fazer nada", dizem eles, "Jesus fez tudo por você na cruz. Não precisa de batismo, pode ficar sem o Espírito Santo, pode viver sem obras de justiça, sem obediência, sem arrependimento, sem jejum, sem deixar o pecado, não há santidade, nem sofrimento, nem abnegação, não ha conformidade com a imagem de Cristo. No entanto, isto é exatamente o que muitos acreditam, a despeito dos ensinamentos de Jesus e da palavra de Deus, que explica claramente para todos nós o que DEVEMOS fazer para ser salvo.

Jesus ORDENA a seus apóstolos para IR e pregar o evangelho a toda criatura, quem crê E FOR BATIZADO será SALVO. Muito claro, correto? Deus em carne e osso dando essa ordem correto? Será que os apóstolos obedeceram a essa ordem? Temos a clara evidência da obediência dos apostolos, registrada no livro de Atos. O único livro que registra exemplos claros de convertidos a Cristo e o que eles fizeram depois que eles acreditaram no evangelho que os apóstolos pregaram.

O mesmo Jesus que disse: "Quem crê e for batizado será salvo" , é o mesmo Jesus que disse:

Lucas 6:46

"Mas por que me chamais Senhor, Senhor ', e não fazer as coisas que eu digo?

Jesus esta pregando a salvação pelas obras? Claro que não!

O que Jesus está pregando é o que devemos fazer para sermos salvos! Deus é o autor da salvação para a nossa alma, e não nós! Quem somos nós para mudar o que Ele falou? E quem é o homem que decide como a sua alma será salva?

Vamos analisar parte a parte o que Jesus disse em Marcos 16:16

Quem crer e for batizado será salvo

Jesus disse aos Seus apóstolos para ir para o mundo e pregar o evangelho (boas notícias, novas) a toda criatura. O homem ou a mulher que acreditar na boa notícia,nova e for batizado será salvo.

Primeiro a boa notícia precisa ser pregada por aqueles que o Senhor envia ao mundo, a pessoa que ouve o evangelho deve acreditar no que esta ouvindo. Então, o que significa acreditar? A palavra grega para acreditar é pisteuo.

4100  pisteuo  pist-yoo'-o a partir de 4102, ter fé (em, sobre ou em relação a uma pessoa ou coisa) , ou seja, crédito, por implicação, de confiar (especialmente o bem-estar espiritual de Cristo): - acredite (-r), entregar (confiar), colocar na confiança com. (Strong's Lexicon grego)

O que significa a palavra fé?

. 4102  pistis  pis'-tis de 3982, persuasão , credibilidade ou seja, a convicção moral (da verdade religiosa, ou a veracidade de Deus ou um mestre religioso), especialmente a dependência em Cristo para a salvação, abstratamente, a constância na profissão em questão; por extensão, o sistema de verdade (Evangelho) religiosa em si: - a garantia, a crença, acredite, a fé, a fidelidade.

Em segundo lugar, a pessoa que acredita precisa ser batizada.

O que significa a palavra batizado?

.907  baptizo -bap tid'-zo de um derivado do 911; imergir, mergulhar, completamente molhado (ou seja, totalmente molhado), usado apenas (no Novo Testamento) de ablução cerimonial, especialmente (tecnicamente) da portaria de Batismo Cristao: - Batista, batizar, lavar.

 O que a palavra salvo significa?

 . 4982  sozo  -zo sode' de um sos primários (contração de saos obsoleto, "seguro"), para salvar , ou seja, entregar ou proteger (literal ou figurativamente): - curar, preservar, conservar (si mesmo), fazer o bem, ser (fazer) todo.

Jesus disse aos Seus apóstolos: vá para o mundo e pregue o evangelho, aquele que tiver fé em mim ou for persuadido por sua mensagem e for imerso em água será salvo.

O que as pessoas perguntaram quando eles ouviram o evangelho pregado por Pedro no dia de Pentecostes?

Atos 2:36-37

"Saiba pois com certeza toda a casa de Israel que a esse mesmo Jesus, a quem vós crucificastes, Deus o fez Senhor e Cristo. E, ouvindo eles isto, compungiram-se em seu coração, e perguntaram a Pedro e aos demais apóstolos: Que faremos, irmãos?"

O que Pedro lhes disse quando eles perguntaram a ele e aos outros apóstolos presentes, "O que devemos fazer?", Pedro e os outros apóstolos disseram a eles: "Apenas creia!, Isso é tudo que você deve fazer!", NAO ELES NAO DISSERAM ISTO! Pedro sendo obediente ao mandato de Jesus Cristo, e em concordância com o resto dos apóstolos e discípulos disse a eles:

Atos 2:38-39

"Pedro então lhes respondeu: Arrependei-vos, e cada um de vós seja batizado em nome de Jesus Cristo, para remissão de vossos pecados; e recebereis o dom do Espírito Santo. Porque a promessa vos pertence a vós, a vossos filhos, e a todos os que estão longe: a quantos o Senhor nosso Deus chamar. ".

Pedro pregou a salvação pelas obras?

O que aconteceu quando o evangelista Filipe pregou o evangelho aos Samaritanos?

Atos 8:12

"Mas, quando creram em Filipe, que lhes pregava acerca do reino de Deus e do nome de Jesus, batizavam-se homens e mulheres."

O que aconteceu quando Filipe pregou o evangelho para o eunuco etíope?

Atos 8:34-38

"Respondendo o eunuco a Filipe, disse: Rogo-te, de quem diz isto o profeta? de si mesmo, ou de algum outro? Então Filipe tomou a palavra e, começando por esta escritura, anunciou-lhe a Jesus. E indo eles caminhando, chegaram a um lugar onde havia água, e disse o eunuco: Eis aqui água; que impede que eu seja batizado? E disse Felipe: é lícito, se crês de todo o coração. E, respondendo ele, disse: Creio que Jesus Cristo é o Filho de Deus.mandou parar o carro, e desceram ambos a água, tanto Filipe como o eunuco, e Filipe o batizou. "

E, respondendo ele, disse: "Eu acredito que Jesus Cristo é o Filho de Deus. "Então, ele comandou ao carro parar. E tanto Filipe eo eunuco desceram à água, e ele batizou o eunuco.

Filipe estava pregando a salvação pelas obras?

É muito claro nas escrituras como Filipe pregou Jesus ao eunuco etíope, explicou a ele o que ele devia fazer para obter a salvação de sua alma, porque o eunuco disse: "vê aqui ha água, o que me impede de ser batizado? " Filipe foi ensinado corretamente pelos apóstolos, ele foi cheio do Espírito Santo, e ele sabia o que devia ser feito quando um cresse no evangelho. Nenhum dos apóstolos ou evangelistas do primeiro século disseram a qualquer convertido a Cristo que tudo o que tinham que fazer era  apenas acreditar, então por que pregadores hoje dizem isso? E por que as pessoas acreditam nisso sendo que os ensinamentos de Jesus e os exemplos sao bem claros de verdadeiras conversoes registradas no livro de Atos?

A conversão de Paulo

Atos 9:17-18

"Partiu Ananias e entrou na casa e, impondo-lhe as mãos, disse: Irmão Saulo, o Senhor Jesus, que te apareceu no caminho por onde vinhas, enviou-me para que tornes a ver e sejas cheio do Espírito Santo. Logo lhe caíram dos olhos como que umas escamas, e recuperou a vista: então, levantando-se, foi batizado "

A conversão do gentio Cornélio e sua família

Atos 10:42-48

" E Ele nos mandou pregar ao povo, e testificar que Ele é o que por Deus foi constituído juiz dos vivos e dos mortos. A ele todos os profetas dão testemunho de que todo o que nele crê receberá a remissão de pecados. Enquanto Pedro ainda dizia estas coisas, desceu o Espírito Santo sobre todos os que ouviam a palavra. Os crentes que eram de circuncisão, todos quantos tinham vindo com Pedro, maravilharam-se de que também sobre os gentios se derramasse o dom do Espírito Santo; porque os ouviam falar línguas e magnificar a Deus. Respondeu então Pedro: Pode alguém porventura recusar a água para que não sejam batizados estes que também, como nós, receberam o Espírito Santo? Mandou, pois, que fossem batizados em nome de Jesus Cristo. Então lhe rogaram que ficasse com eles por alguns dias. "

Novamente vemos claramente Pedro ser obediente aos mandamentos e ensinamentos de Jesus Cristo, que tipo de ministro Pedro teria sido se ele fosse desobediente? Ele provavelmente não teria sido apóstolo do Senhor por muito tempo!

A conversão de Lídia em Filipos

Atos 16:13-15

"No sábado saímos portas afora para a beira do rio, onde julgávamos haver um lugar de oração e, sentados, falávamos as mulheres ali reunidas. E certa mulher chamada Lídia, vendedora de púrpura, da cidade de Tiatira, e que temia a Deus, nos escutava e o Senhor lhe abriu o coração para atender as coisas que Paulo dizia. Depois que foi batizada, ela e a sua casa, rogou-nos, dizendo: Se haveis julgado que eu sou fiel ao Senhor, entrai em minha casa, e ficai ali. E nos constrangeu a isso. ."

A conversão do carcereiro de Filipos

Atos 16:29-34

"Então ele pediu uma luz, correu, prostrou-se tremendo diante de Paulo e Silas. E ele os tirou e disse: "Senhores, que devo fazer para ser salvo ? " Então eles disseram: "Creia no Senhor Jesus Cristo, e serás salvo, tu e a tua casa ." Depois, eles falaram a palavra do Senhor para ele e para todos os que estavam em sua casa . E ele tomou a mesma hora da noite, lavou-lhes os vergões. E imediatamente ele e toda sua família foram batizados . Agora, quando ele tinha trazido para dentro de sua casa, ele colocou comida diante deles, e se alegrou, tendo crido em Deus com toda a sua casa ".

Alguns usam este texto das escrituras como prova de simplesmente acreditar e você será salvo, mas como poderia o carcereiro acreditar no Senhor Jesus Cristo, sem ouvir primeiro o evangelho pregado? É por isso que a escritura segue dizendo: ", então eles falaram a palavra do Senhor para ele e para todos os que estavam em sua casa". Então nós vemos o carcereiro e toda sua casa responderem depois que ouviram a palavra e creram, eles foram imediatamente batizados.

Será que o carcereiro recebeu a salvação pelas suas obras? Ou ele e sua família estavam sendo obedientes às palavras de Paulo e Silas?

Paulo disse aos santos romanos sobre os israelitas em:

Romanos 10:14-15

"Como pois invocarão aquele em quem não creram? e como crerão naquele de quem não ouviram falar? e como ouvirão, se não há quem pregue? E como pregarão, se não forem enviados? assim como está escrito: Quão formosos os pés dos que anunciam coisas boas!  "

Conclusão:

O próprio Jesus ensinou a seus discípulos o plano de Deus para a salvação da alma, Ele os nomeou, ordenou-lhes, e deu-lhes poder para sair ao mundo e pregar o evangelho a todas as nações. Aqueles que acreditassem neste evangelho era para serem batizados, e devido a crerem no evangelho e no Senhor Jesus Cristo, as ações que seguiam essa crença conduzia-os à salvação de suas almas.

Permanecendo no amor do Mestre,

Destruction In The Bible-Belt (See Update)

While I was meditating I heard these words: "DESTRUCTION IN THE BIBLE- BELT". And then, this morning I heard:"IMMINENT". And the Holy Spirit brought to my remembrance all the recent bird and fish deaths, which I believe are the signs of the imminent earthquake coming to the New Madrid Fault Zone.

Also there was a thunder storm this morning and me and Cynthia heard a roll of thunder that sounding like cracking and crashing, this was no ordinary thunder roll, and I started to get up and look out the window, but I didn't feel any shaking so I knew it was in the spiritual realm, and I believe this will manifest soon in the physical realm!

Isaiah 24:20

The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard,  And shall totter like a hut;  Its transgression shall be heavy upon it,  And it will fall, and not rise again.
     
Abiding in Him,
Tyrone

***** UPDATE 6-11-11 *****

I believe this word was fulfilled on Sunday May 22nd 2011 when a category F-5 tornado hit Joplin, Missouri. This area of southern America is located within the bible belt.

Bible Belt Activates

"Fortunately for Sisney and the 50,000 other residents, prayer is plentiful in this southwestern Missouri town that was so badly damaged. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said the system was an F-5, the strongest rating assigned to tornadoes, with winds of more than 200 mph.

Joplin is centrally situated in the buckle of the Bible Belt, with two Christian colleges in the city: Ozark Christian College, whose campus was not harmed, and Messenger College. Less than an hour east of town is Springfield, where Christian organizations like Convoy of Hope and the Assemblies of God are both headquartered."

The Boat Will Shake

The Peace of the Lord Jesus Christ to His Precious Chosen Church,

Tonight I had a very interesting dream. I was inside a boat and this boat belonged to my real father (who is not alive anymore), but I knew he was representing God in the boat. There were many other people in the boat who I did not know in the dream. Suddenly, the boat started shaking as if it was in a very huge storm, but I did not see any rain though. While the boat was shaking, I remember to have seen an impure object, an object which people used as an addition to their sexual lives. Then, my father looked at me and said: "This is necessary to happen to stretch the people in it, make them right with God". I understood that he looked at me to explain to me that because of all the impurities of the people, the boat needed to be shaken for the people to get right with God.

Then, when I was praying about this dream, I opened the scriptures in Nahum 3 which is titled: "The Woe of Nineveh", but I felt in my heart the Lord speaking about the United States of America and I really believe the Lord is giving further information of what is going to happen in America as well through this book and chapter. Read the whole chapter below and after that, read the explanation of this chapter that I found on google which clarifies the whole chapter:

Nahum 3
The Woe of Nineveh
1 Woe to the bloody city!
It is all full of lies and robbery.
Its victim never departs.
2 The noise of a whip
And the noise of rattling wheels,
Of galloping horses,
Of clattering chariots!
3 Horsemen charge with bright sword and glittering spear.
There is a multitude of slain,
A great number of bodies,
Countless corpses

They stumble over the corpses
4 Because of the multitude of harlotries of the seductive harlot,
The mistress of sorceries,
Who sells nations through her harlotries
,
And families through her sorceries.
5“ Behold, I am against you,” says the LORD of hosts;
“ I will lift your skirts over your face,
I will show the nations your nakedness,
And the kingdoms your shame.
6 I will cast abominable filth upon you,
Make you vile,
And make you a spectacle.
7 It shall come to pass that all who look upon you
Will flee from you, and say,
‘ Nineveh is laid waste!
Who will bemoan her?’
Where shall I seek comforters for you?”
8 Are you better than No Amon[a]
That was situated by the River,[b]
That had the waters around her,
Whose rampart was the sea,
Whose wall was the sea?
9 Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength,
And it was boundless;
Put and Lubim were your[c] helpers.
10 Yet she was carried away,
She went into captivity;
Her young children also were dashed to pieces
At the head of every street;
They cast lots for her honorable men,
And all her great men were bound in chains.
11 You also will be drunk;
You will be hidden;
You also will seek refuge from the enemy. 12 All your strongholds are fig trees with ripened figs:
If they are shaken,
They fall into the mouth of the eater.
13 Surely, your people in your midst are women!
The gates of your land are wide open for your enemies;
Fire shall devour the bars of your gates.
14 Draw your water for the siege!
Fortify your strongholds!
Go into the clay and tread the mortar!
Make strong the brick kiln!
15 There the fire will devour you,
The sword will cut you off;
It will eat you up like a locust.
Make yourself many—like the locust!
Make yourself many— like the swarming locusts!
16 You have multiplied your merchants more than the stars of heaven.
The locust plunders and flies away.
17 Your commanders are like swarming locusts,
And your generals like great grasshoppers,
Which camp in the hedges on a cold day;
When the sun rises they flee away,
And the place where they are is not known.
18 Your shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria;
Your nobles rest in the dust.
Your people are scattered on the mountains,
And no one gathers them.
19 Your injury has no healing,
Your wound is severe.
All who hear news of you
Will clap their hands over you,
For upon whom has not your wickedness passed continually?


Some explanation of Nahum 3 for further understanding:

In these verses, Nahum curses (says that evil things will happen to) Assyria. He says that trouble will come because they killed people (blood). And because they said things that were not true (lies). And because they stole things.Then, in verses 2 and 3, he describes the battle that will happen. His words here do not make sentences. Instead, they make sounds like what happens.

· the ‘crack’ (sharp sound) of a whip,
· the ‘rattle’ (sound of wood when it hits wood) of *chariot wheels,
· the ‘gallop’ (sound of their feet on the ground) of horses,
· the ‘scream’ (like someone who is crying) of the *chariots,
· and so on.

Chariots were carts that horses pulled. Soldiers rode in them. There will be dead bodies everywhere. And in verse 4, Nahum gives the reason. Nineveh is like a harlot. A harlot is a woman that has sex with a man for money. Nahum means this as a picture. Because people pay taxes to Nineveh (Assyria), Nineveh does not hurt them. But he also says that Nineveh uses magic. God’s rules do not allow this. Today we do not use the word magic. We say ‘occult’ instead. This means to let evil *spirits do things for and by means of us. But, in verse 5, God says ‘I am against you’. He will make Nineveh like a naked woman. This again is a picture. It means this: People will see Nineveh’s people and Assyria’s people as they really are. They are very evil and wicked.

Verses 8-10 tell us about when soldiers destroyed Thebes. Thebes was a city in Egypt. Soldiers from Assyria destroyed it in 663 *B.C. It had the River Nile to defend it. Thebes had the people from Put and Libya to help it. But Assyria still destroyed Egypt.

Verses 11-19 tell Assyria that it will be like Egypt. Someone will destroy Assyria.

In verses 11-13, there are three pictures:

a) Nineveh will be like a drunk. It (its people) will run away and hide.

b) Nineveh will be like a ripe fig tree. Figs were fruits. When someone shook the tree, the ripe figs fell off.

Enemies will beat Assyria when someone shakes the tree. That means ‘when someone attacks it’.

c) Nineveh’s soldiers will be like women. This means that they will not be as strong as men. So, its enemies will destroy Nineveh.

Again, Nahum tells Nineveh to prepare itself for the attack. In verse 14, God tells Nineveh to:

a) make sure that there is enough water in the city,

b) make its castles strong. (They might have to get more cement from the ground in order to do this.)

In verses 15-17, there are grasshoppers and locusts. Grasshoppers are insects. Locusts are big grasshoppers. Millions of them flew into countries that we read about in the Bible. They ate everything green. They left nothing for the people to eat. God tells Assyria to multiply like these grasshoppers. Someone will still destroy it. It can have as many merchants as there are stars. Someone will still destroy it. The officials of Assyria will give no help. When trouble comes, nobody will find them. They will fly away like locusts on a hot day!

When I started meditating in the explanation of this chapter, it started coming to my mind as a movie the things that are going on in America

- The murder of Osama Bin Laden
- The flood of the Mississipi River
- The earthquakes shaking many places
- The greedy in making money at any cost
- The seeking of the occult and the serving of other gods
- Abortions being done due to the lusts of the flesh

There are many abominations to the eyes of the Lord and He is bringing all the proud low to the ground and He is carving His staff on the ground to bring His righteousness and justice, for He is holy and He is the judge of everything that the eye can or cannot see! He knows them all!

The Lord is still calling people at this last hour for repentance while there is still time, He has been calling thousands of people througout this nation through many people, sources and resources in order to bring people to worship Him and give them the chance to repent, confess their sins and serve Him.

If you are still living a life of sin, today is the day that the Lord has made for you to change your mind and turn all your ways to Him and accept Him as your Lord and Savior and let Him be number one in your life. You do not have more time, repent today! Tomorrow can be very late!

If you are serving the Lord with all your heart, soul and mind, it is time to get on your knees, pray, shout, make supplications and fast for your souls and for whoever the Lord puts in your hearts for the protection and guidance of the Almighty God for all that He is bringing as judgement to this nation.

I hope this word can edify your soul and remember that the Master is in the boat of those who worship Him in spirit and truth,

In Christ,

Revenge Is Coming

Yesterday while my wife Cynthia was hearing about the death of Osama Bin Laden, she felt in her spirit that revenge is coming soon!

When she prayed to God later, she heard the Lord say, "Revenge Will Soon Hit The Ground", "What They Least Expect Will Happen To Them".

Isaiah 47:8-11

“Therefore hear this now, you who are given to pleasures, Who dwell securely, Who say in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, Nor shall I know the loss of children’; But these two things shall come to you In a moment, in one day: The loss of children, and widowhood. They shall come upon you in their fullness Because of the multitude of your sorceries, For the great abundance of your enchantments. “For you have trusted in your wickedness; You have said, ‘No one sees me’; Your wisdom and your knowledge have warped you; And you have said in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one else besides me.’ Therefore evil shall come upon you; You shall not know from where it arises. And trouble shall fall upon you; You will not be able to put it off. And desolation shall come upon you suddenly, Which you shall not know"

*********************************************

This morning I (Tyrone) heard the Lord say, "I Will Have My Way, Says The Lord Almighty"

Psalm 37:34

"Wait on the LORD, And keep His way, And He shall exalt you to inherit the land; When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it."


Sheltering Under His Wings,
Tyrone & Cynthia
