#Holiness,#Salvation,#Soul,#Hell

Most of the blogs are teachings on how to get saved and then stay saved. The  Bible is the only reference used.  With so much going on and so much false teaching, now more than ever the Word of God needs to go out.  If one person is saved through all this, amen.  For this is the purpose of the Church.  Jesus said he came to seek and save the lost.  Most just do not realize they are lost.

Good job, nice home, nice car, extra money in the bank, but lost.  Nice friends, even attend a church regularly, but lost.  Will give to charity every now and then, but still lost.  Children grow up to be good, contributing citizens, but still lost.

The longer the Lord delays his coming, the more wicked man becomes.  And even some of those that profess to love the Lord are taking on the ways of the wicked.  I thought about the scripture that says, "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall  see the Lord."  Hebrews 12:14.

In this verse the Lord tells us to follow peace and to follow holiness.  The people of God are not to be involved with trouble, arguing, fighting with others.  The people of God are commanded to follow peace.  As much as lies within you live peaceable with all men.  The people of God should not be trouble makers.  Then He tells us to follow holiness.  He did not say follow man, follow a religion, follow a convention, follow someones bylaws, follow a certain fellowship.  He said to follow holiness.  If one takes the time to study the Word of God as relates to holiness, one would be able to see as the Lord opens up the understanding, what holiness is.  My prayer is as times begins to wind up, men, women, boys and girls will seek the Lord and the holiness He is going to require of them.

Without holiness, no man will see the Lord.  No man.

#Run the Race Right,#Win,

Many start, but do not finish. Many once ran well, but now have allowed that which is contrary to scripture to run their lives. The scriptures bear this out in Galatians chapter three. "O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, " Galatians 3:1 "Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye n ow made perfect by the flesh?" Galatians 3:3 The Lord is calling the roll. Are you ready? Revelations 16:15  "Behold, I come as a thief.  Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame." steadfastapostolic.com

#Call Jesus,#Cry out,#Jesus, Deliverer

If you call Jesus right, he will hear you and come see about you.  Ask blind Bartimaeus. The scriptures says in St. Mark 10:46-52 that Jesus, His disciples and a great number of people were leaving Jericho.  Blind Bartimaeus heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.  Blind Bartimaeus could not see.  He did not know what Jesus looked like.  He only knew what he heard. Blind Bartimaeus began to cry out to Jesus, "Jesus, thou son of David have mercy on me".  When the people tried to stop him, he cried out the more so, "Thou son of David, have mercy on me".  He did no let people keep him from calling on the Lord.  He must have heard about the miracles, healing, deliverance that took place at the hand of the Lord. Jesus heard the cry of Blind Bartimaeus.  It was the sound of the cry that revealed to the Lord that Blind Bartimaeus was calling out in a blind state, but yet believing something would happen if he could get the attention of Je...

#A Lot of Singing,#Shouting,#Tongue Talking,#Playing

Music was one of the things that drew me to want to go to Church when I was not saved.   I use to love to hear and 'feel' the spirit of the songs.  Back then, the singers would sing unto the Lord.  They were not paid to sing.  They were not seeking recording contracts.  They would sing unto the Lord.  The would sing about the Lord.  So, when one went to hear the singers, your soul got touched whether you wanted it to or not. I can remember going to the Holiness Churches.  The praise was different too.  When the Saints praised God back then, it was real.  When the Saints did dance 'in the Spirit', it was real.  You could feel it.  There was always this 'presence' in the Holiness Church that I could not explain....then.  But that presence kind of held you captive, whether you wanted it o or not.  And, sometimes Church would go on for hours, but no one cared.  And, if one of the Saints said something to you that t...
