Holiness Has Not Changed

"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". Holiness does not change.  As each day passes, there is a large majority that continues to try and change the standards of Holiness.  The Word of God still says to be ye Holy for I am Holy. In ministry, there is space for compromise or taking down.  The conveniences of the world will make one lazy in seeking the Lord.  Holiness requires consecration, fasting and praying.  Fasting will be a hot topic next month.  But who will really be fasting as taught by the word of God? As a minister of the Gospel, I can not agree with anything that the Word teaches against.  Call it old fashion, out of date, or whatever.  But the word of God is the word of God.  He has taught us not to add anything to it or take anything from it. Example, watch night service use to be a time when th

December 25th has finally passed.  Every time that day comes around, think about the deception that takes place.  Children are lied to about a man in a red suit with a white beard, the people of God think they are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, people get in debt buying gifts for other people, parties are thrown and alcohol is served.  Those that suffer with depression this time of year have a hard time while the parties and lies go on. No, I do not celebrate Christmas.  Yes, I am a born again, baptized in Jesus Name, tongue talking, holy roller.  Glory!  December 25th has nothing to do with Jesus. I remember walking across my garage when the Holy Ghost spoke to me as I passed the Christmas tree in its box.  He told me, "I'm not part of that".  I remember it like it was yesterday.  I went, picked up that boxed tree and drug it to the curb for trash pick up.  I never shall forget it.  My daughter was small and she cried.  For you see we use to celebrate christm

While studying in Psalms 145 , the Word of the Lord plainly lets it be known that the Saints of God are to praise the Lord daily. Verse two states specifically, "Every day will i bless thee, and I will praise thy name fore ever and ever".  Oh, Amen!  What a joy to bless the Lord. This Psalm continues on to say how the Lord is great and greatly to be praised.  But, when you get to verse 4 the Word of the Lord is giving instruction.  This verse states, "One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts". We hear alot today about some of the things the Church and the people of God do are 'old'.  But, it this scripture is telling us to pass on from one generation to another praise for the works of the Lord, then the ways of the Church do not get old!!  If you study this verse and references, you will find that the children of Israel would pass on by word of mouth the things the Lord did for them when He delivered them out o

There are so many that do not believe in the Lord.  They do not see the need.  They do not see anything that the Lord is doing.  Nor, do the accept anything that He has done.  They seem to believe that men are self made and made their own good come about. When I heard someone say this, I thought of the scripture that says, "the fool has said in his heart, there is no God".  This person is looking for a sign or miracle before they will believe.  My prayer is that the Lord will draw and have mercy.

We just finished three days of preaching thanking the Lord for 9 years as a Pastor at Steadfast Apostolic Church.  The Elder brought messages that allowed for the soul to eat.  I was so grateful for that.  The final message he preached came from the book of Jude vs. 3, "Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints." I took that message to heart.  The Elder said the Lord gave it to him for our Church.  The times have led us to a place where men do not want to hear the truth or be told the truth.  Everyone wants to live by their own convictions and still made it to Heaven.  When the Word of God speaks about conviction, it is talking about being convicted of the fact that one is not living according to the Bible. When the world was destroyed the first time, only 8 souls were saved and that was Noah

"But without faith it is impossible to please Him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a re warder of them that diligently seek him".   Hebrews 11:6 When you read that scripture, it makes you think, 'do I want to please God?'  This scripture  tells us faith does not come by works.  One can not do things and get God's attention.  It takes faith to move God.  And, the first order of faith is to believe that He is.  That He is the only true, wise God.  That He is the only one that can save the soul.  That He is the first and the last.  That He is the Messiah. The scriptures teach on honoring the Lord with ones lip but the heat is far from Him.  It is easy to say and not have faith that He, Jesus, is God.  Some can not get past that.  Past what?  That Jesus is God.  Do you believe that Jesus is God manifest in the flesh?  Do you have faith in Jesus to be what He said he would be?  How can one seek the Lord if he or she does not have f
