Wow! Can you see how the world is getting darker and darker? The wicked and ungodly are getting bolder everyday! Blaspheming the name of Jesus, laughing and mocking those who believe what the bible says. Many entertainers are making a mockery of the crucifixtion, the religious of today are becoming more bold in their hypocrisy and desire for money. So called pastors the world over are getting addicted to pornography and the like.
Yet there is still more to come! As people harden themselves more and more to the presence and grace of God, the Lord is getting ready to separate His people from the unbelievers! When He pours out His Spirit for this last hour, true love and Holy Spirit power will be seen once more before the Lord Jesus returns.
The scriptures must be fulfilled, and millions will literally hate the righteous with all their being and there will be no more hatred of other so-called races, or because of the color of skin. It will be, we hate you because you are a Christian! Because you are a disciple of Jesus, because you have the Holy Spirit in your soul, and because you are bearing the fruit of the Spirit, namely LOVE!
Didn't they hate Jesus for the same reasons! Didn't they crucify Him without a cause! Yet all He did was love, heal, and tell people the truth that could save their souls from hell and the lake of fire!
And this separation and outpouring of God's Spirit is absolutely necessary world-wide in order for millions of people to be saved from the coming judgments and the wrath of God!
I truly do not see the true and genuine love of Jesus in any congregation I have been in or served in. The closest I have gotten to it was the International Church of Christ in Chicago, before it was exposed as cultish. But they had one thing right, they knew how to get people to study the bible and lay the right foundation of Christ, but failed to teach people about the baptism with the Holy Spirit.
Young single men lived together in rented apartments, as well as the women. They gave up jobs and cars, they met together daily and only dated other singles from the church. Married couples opened up their homes to people, they had marriage retreats and conferences. It was truly a well oiled machine, but everything was being done in the flesh! Without the Spirit of God! It just continues to show you what man can do when everyone is thinking the same!
Jesus said in John 13:34-35
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."Let me tell you right now, it is IMPOSSIBLE to have the type of love that Jesus is talking about in John 13 without first being baptized with the Holy Spirit! How can you truly display the Love of God, if God's Spirit is not in your soul?
You can't bear the fruit of the Spirit if you don't have His Spirit to begin with!!! And this is where the Pharisees and teachers of the bible fail today, they are not helping souls to be truly converted to Christ, they are not teaching people how to enter the Kingdom of God!
How many times have you heard, repeat after me? How many times have you heard just repeat Romans 10:9? But what did Jesus say?
John 3:5
"Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God."The truth is on full display right here in plain text, black and white, but sadly not explained, taught, or accepted! The explanation for water and Spirit is contained IN the scriptures! Jesus was baptized in water, and the Holy Spirit came down from Heaven and remained on Him. He is our perfect example and the Blueprint that we should follow!! Another explanation is in Acts 19, with the men who believed in John's baptism.
Acts 19:1-7
And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” So they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.” And he said to them, “Into what then were you baptized?” So they said, “Into John’s baptism.”You cannot have genuine love for another brother or sister in Christ without first being filled with the One who can give you the fruit of love! The Spirit of God!
