Lawlessness Is Abounding Right Now!

 


Matthew 24:12

"And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold."

There were 43,065 gun deaths in 2023, with more than 36,000 people injured. 

As of Feb. 15, 2024 at least 4,994 people have died from gun violence in the U.S. this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive – which is an average of about 108 deaths each day. Another 3,351 people have been injured.

There have now been 31,498 deaths and 58,988 injuries so far in 2024!

That means that there WILL be at least 10 to 12 thousand more people murdered this year!

There have also been 103,241 deaths and 199,134 injuries over the past five years!

https://abcnews.go.com/

And this is in the U.S. alone! Lawlessness is abounding everywhere!

These are very eye opening and shocking statistics to read, the death toll just from gun violence in America is almost more than the deaths of Palestinians and Israelis in the Gaza war!

So you can safely say that the streets of America are like a war zone!

The only hope we have in these times of Sodom and Gomorrah is Jesus!

He is the only One who can truly protect us and deliver us from evil in this world!

A Little Lower Than The Angels!

 

Psalm 8:3-5

"When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor."

Human beings are powerful!! We have the knowledge and technology to put people on the moon! Build Skyscrapers that touch the clouds! And even make nuclear weapons that can destroy the world!

Imagine, like John Lennon said: "Imagine all the people, living together as one", even the Lord Jesus Himself prayed for His chosen people to be one. 

Humans have so much ability to do good, and so much ability to do evil! People can gather together and burn down cities, or they can gather together to build cities!

This is why the devil fights so hard to keep all human beings separated, segregated, and hating one another, because he knows that unity brings power! Especially when humans all think the same way and have the same goals. 

We know that God Himself separated humanity during the time of the Tower of Babel being built, but now with language translation apps easily available on every Smartphone, even language is not a barrier anymore to humans on this earth!

This is also why the disciples in the first century were able to turn the whole world upside down! Because once a human being enters the Kingdom of God, his or her mind and heart begins to be cleansed of sin, corruption, demonic strongholds and filthyness of the flesh. 

A transformation occurs that begins to restore a man or woman to what God created men and women to be, LIKE HIM! This is why God commands us all to be Holy as HE IS HOLY!

So as disciples of Jesus if we come together as He commands us, then there is nothing that we could not accomplish if we set our hearts and minds to get it done!

I do believe the day is coming when we will be unified in the faith, and have all things in common like they had in the first century church. We will need all the mental and spiritual power we have to face the greatest evil that humans have faced since the world began, the man of sin, the Antichrist himself.

Prepare yourself the time is at hand!

In Christ,

A Change Is Gonna Come!

 


Luke 2:25-35

"And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. So he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law, he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said: 

“Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace, According to Your word; For my eyes have seen Your salvation Which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel.”

And Joseph and His mother marveled at those things which were spoken of Him. Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against (yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

When Jesus was born He was prophesied over by Simeon, who the Holy Spirit was upon. He spoke of the coming change that would happen in the world because of the birth of Jesus. He was destined to bring down religion and make a way for His disciples to rise up out of the traditions of man and the dictatorship of Ceasar Augustus.

The same thing is happening today, and in the midst of all the trouble that's going on worldwide, God will shine His great light once again and pour out His Spirit on those who are ready to be a part of this end-time change that will culminate in the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ!

The stage is already set and the handwriting is on the wall. What has been prophesied thousands of years ago is coming to pass even as I write this blog post! Every day that passes brings us closer to the revealing of the man of sin and the last great outpouring of God's Spirit that will bring pockets of revival all over the world. 

The Lord told my wife, "The Small Will Be Great, And The Great Will Disappear". 

John the baptist quoted the Prophet Isaiah in Luke 3:2-6

"while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying:

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight. Every valley shall be filled And every mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made straight And the rough ways smooth; And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.’ ”

What's coming is inevitable, unavoidable, and will change the world as we know it. Every soul on earth will have a choice to make, life or death, Heaven or Hell, God or satan.

As always, the choice is yours!

In Christ,

Judas Was A Devil?

 


John 6:66-71

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?” He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve."

These scriptures continue to amaze me! The truths revealed in these few passages of scripture are so deep that you learn so much from meditating on them.

One thing comes to mind is that before Jesus chose these twelve men to be His apostles, (which is a higher calling than just a disciple), He went alone up in the mountains to pray, and He prayed all night long!

Luke 6:12-15

"Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles: Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew; Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot; Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor."

Who can know the ways of God? Why did the Father tell Jesus to choose a devil? A man that would go on to betray Him and cause Jesus to be taken by the Jews and Roman soldiers. The only answer I can think of is to fulfill His prophecies and His word.

This is why it's just so much better to humble ourselves and submit our souls to God because He is in complete control of ALL His creation! 

So Jesus knowing all things, had to choose His own betrayer, and love him, serve him, teach him, correct him, eat with him, sleep in the same house, and drink with him! Every single day for three and a half years! Jesus had to be so full of the Peace and Love of God for this to be possible. 

What human being on this earth would choose a man or woman they knew beforehand would betray them and cause them to be crucified? Especially after loving them and giving their all to see them brought into a saving relationship with God.

Yet this is exactly what Jesus did! For Judas Iscariot and For ALL of Humanity!

These scriptures should also help the religious people who think that just because they go to a church building two or three times a week, that they are Christians, Disicples, saved and righteous in the sight of God. This thought could't be further from the truth!

Judas was a devil every single moment of his time with Jesus, in the house, in the temple courts, on the street corner, in the fields, on the boat, when he slept, and when he woke up! It didn't matter where he went, or what he did, he was still a devil!

Religious people can put on a smile in the church building but have their hearts full of hate, pride and prejudice! Just like the Pharisees did!

Any devil can walk in a church building, sit down and make themselves comfortable, say amen, sing the songs, and walk out of the building more a son of hell than when they went in!!!

This truth is super spiritual, this is why the word tells us that the evil will get worse and worse, but the righteous will become more righteous still! Isn't that amazing, how it's possible to grow more evil and wicked or righteous and holy, throughout ones life? I think so!

2nd Timothy 3:13, Revelation 22:11

"But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived."

"He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.”

The righteous and the wicked will have to live together until Jesus returns, which one will you be?

In Jesus,

Guard Your Heart!

 


Proverbs 4:23

"Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life."

The bible talks about the heart so much from Genesis to Revelation, God our Creator wants us to understand that the heart (inner, spiritual one), not the organ, is the most important part of a human soul. 

God Himself said to His prophet Samuel in 1st Samuel 16:5-7

"And he said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice. So it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the Lord’s anointed is before Him!”

But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

I can tell you from my own life, that if your heart is hard for whatever the reason, it will keep you from truly loving anybody, even your own self! A hard heart will also keep you from receiving love from others as well. Eveything will just be 'meh', and 'whatever', when people do their best to love you and help you. 

Jesus said that out of the heart the mouth speaks!

Matthew 12:33-35

“Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things."

Matthew 15:16-19

"So Jesus said, “Are you also still without understanding? Do you not yet understand that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated? But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies."

Jesus made it so clear for us to understand how important it is to have a clean and pure heart!

"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God!"

In Christ,

No Man Can Come To Me!

 


John 6:41-44, 64-65

"The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” And they said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven’?” Jesus therefore answered and said to them, “Do not murmur among yourselves. No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day."

"But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him. And He said, “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”

I can remember when I was drawn by God to my wife. We met on Christian Cupid dot com, when it was still a bit taboo to meet someone online, let alone date them. How fast times have changed right? Now if you're not on the internet you're seen as strange! 

It's amazing to me how some people can see the light and others can not. Some feel led to change their lives and be different, others feel the same leading but don't respond to it. They turn their backs on God, they blank out and walk away, and many don't feel anything at all!

Those who do come to Christ always have a testimony of what God did for them, how he drew them to Himself, or what they were doing when something happened they couldn't explain. Many cry out to God and say, 'God if you are real then do this or that and I will believe.' 

The first disciples Jesus called were drawn to Him because it was granted to them by the Father in Heaven!

Matthew 4:18-22

"And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” They immediately left their nets and followed Him. Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him."

How is it possible that Jesus being a total stranger to these four fishermen, could call them out of their jobs, their family, their lifestyles, and they listened! The scriptures tell us that the four men IMMEDIATELY left their nets, their boats, their jobs, even their own father and followed Jesus!

That is a perfect example of what it means to be drawn by God!

The same thing happened when John the baptist started calling the people to repentance. The scriptures say that people came from all around to be baptized by John. How was that possible, John being another total stranger coming out of the desert?

Mark 1:1-8

"The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.” “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.’ ”

John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins."

People of the whole land of Judea and Jerusalem went out to him! And then they got baptized and while they were being baptized, they were confessing their sins, outloud! No secret chambers, no priest in a box, no church building! The people were out in the open air confessing their sins and getting baptized by John in the Jordan River!! That's what you call a supernatural drawing and manifestation of the power of God working through His prophet!!!

Something similar happened to Paul too when he was preaching.

Acts 16:11-15

"Therefore, sailing from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day came to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days. And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there. Now a certain woman named Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God. The Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul. And when she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay.” So she persuaded us.

You see that the Lord had to OPEN THE HEART of Lydia so that she could listen to what paul was saying! The word of God being spoken through His anointed and appointed is spiritual, it can't be understood by those with carnal minds and hard hearts! 

What about the other women who were there? We see that God only opened the heart of Lydia to understand Paul's message, and then she and her whole household were baptized! The ways of God and His choosing is beyond our understanding, only He knows the hearts of all men!

This is why it's so important to pray for the Father to open your heart, and your mind so that you can be drawn to Christ and receive Him when He comes to visit you!

The Time Of Hirelings And Hypocrites Is Ending!

 



God said my people perish for lack of knowledge! God's people also perish because of the lack of spiritual discernment too! But God allows all of this to happen to fulfill His word!

Paul said that there must be factions among you, so it can be revealed who is approved of God! And then Paul had to deal with false brethren and false Apostles too! This all happened two thousand years ago and the same thing is happening right now! History repeats itself, over and over.

1st Corinthians 11:17-19

"Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse. For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it. For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approved may be recognized among you."

Galatians 2:1-5

"Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me.  And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain. Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised. And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage), to whom we did not yield submission even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

2nd Corinthians 11:12-15

"But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works."

This is why I continue to say over and over, that the church building IS NOT THE CHURCH! If you have a group of witches inside a church building, what will the building be full of? EVIL and DARKNESS!

If you have a church building full of true believers filled with the Spirit and Grace of God, what will you have? A building full of Light, God's presence, angels coming and going, people rejoicing and praising God!

The same holds true for your own house! Your house is just a building, and if you are full of darkness and evil spirits, what will your house be full of? EVIL! Even though you cannot perceive it or feel it, because it's spiritual! Unless you actually practice witchcraft in your house, then you will most likely see the evil spirits manifesting!

This is also why Jesus said beware of the wolve's in sheep's clothing! And the Hirelings, because many times they are the ones over the people! 

Matthew 7:15-20

Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them."

John 10:11-13

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep."

So if you are sitting in a congregation that never grows, and there's no youth attending who are thriving and full of joy, you have to question the fruit of your leadership!

The man or woman who thinks that being in Ministry is a job that pays their bills and supports their lifestyle is a hireling! And if you woke up one morning and felt led to go to school to be a Pastor, you need to question whether or not you are really in the faith! There is nowhere in scripture that you see any man or woman being led to an institution to learn how to be an Apostle, Prophet, Pastor, Teacher, or Evangelist!

No man, woman, college, online or physical, can ordain, anoint and appoint any soul to be in the ministry of God, but God!!!

It's Jesus, the Lord Himself who gives ministry gifts to His body for edification and building up!

Ephesians 4:7-16

"But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.” (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love."

The scriptures in Ephesians 4 tells us what the real church should be! It tells us how God designed and desires His church (souls) to operate and function together as the body of Christ, in the midst of all the evil surrounding us everyday!

Without unity, without the Spirit of God in every soul, and without the ministry gifts that Jesus gave to the church, what do we have? A congregation full of hirelings, hypocrites, and evil! 

As Disciples of Jesus we cannot escape this world or the evil that's in it, we must live and grow together with the tares until the final Harvest! The only thing we can do is trust our God and come out from among them and be separate in our hearts and minds!

Matthew 13:24-30

"Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”

The Lord Himself spoke to my wife and said, "The Small Will Be Great, And The Great Will Disappear"

In Christ,
Tyrone
