Please come to where I am writing right now

I am writing in a new Windows Live group right now. I feel it is the best place to get out the word about the false teachings and the spiritual revolution happening in our nation and the world today. I know I have written about it here, but after much more reading and a lot of prayer, I feel the Holy Sprit has given me new insight and a new way to tell people about this.  I won’t write much here while I am doing this.  You must be a member of that group in order to read what I am writing.  So, just ask to join there, and I will admit you as soon as I get your message.

Here is the link to the other site:

I hope to see you there.

To Those Who Read Here

My Space is an easy forum to use. I have been writing here since 2006, as you can see from the archives. I will be glad to walk you through setting up your own My Space.  It would be good if we could talk by phone while I tell you what to do. Just let me know if you want my help.

Man Is Inclined to Sexual Sins

Natural man is naturally drawn to sex.  God made man a sexual being. And He told Adam and Eve to multiply and fill the earth.  But, God created the sexual desire for good.  Man has perverted this to the point of leaving off the focus of reproduction and uses it for his own lusts.

 

In Exodus 32:  Moses had gone up into the mountain to meet with God.  He stayed up there a long time. And the people got restless and nervous.  What if Moses wasn’t coming back? What if he had died up there?  They were a people who needed a leader; they could not function by themselves.  So, Aaron, the brother of Moses, who should have known better, told the peopl to make their own gods to, "go before us."  So, Aaron told them to gather all their gold jewelry and bring it together.  Aaron then made a golden calf, and the people worshipped it.

 

A bull is a symbol of fertility, virility, and sexuality.  Satan knew this. He uses sex to trap people.  This temtation is so common among people that many of the crimes committed today are the result of sexual perversions. Satan delights in tempting people with sex.  He knows that this God-given desire is easily perverted, and that the ways it is used outside of the marriage bond is nothing more than sin.

 

When I was young, it was not thinkable to let anyone know that a daughter was pregnant without marriage. Many girls were sent away on (trips and visits to relatives) to hide this fact.  But in just my lifetime, pregnancy without marriage is an acceptable life.  Living with someone without marriage is so common that people don’t know who is married and who isn’t.  Many women who are approaching the years when pregnancy is dangerous will have sperm planted in their wombs to have the child they want. All these ways destroy the very thing that God instituted – marriage.

 

The reason God instituted marriage was so that the new born baby would have a mother and a father. It is essential for a healthy, well-adjusted child to have the benefit of a father and a mother.  But circumstances today prohibit this. So many children are growing up with one parent. We have a society of people who are damaged by other then normal homes of origin. Even when both parents are present in a home, there often is dysfunctional behavior that warps a child’s personality.  

 

All this heartache and misfortune happens because people have left God’s ways. God always does good. Evil happens when man strays away from God’s ways. And no one can say they don’t know God’s ways; not in this nation.  People go away from the ways of God because they want to.  The will of people can make choices whether to obey God or not to. And the world is reeling in sin an confusion, crime and evil because of the choice to go man’s way instead of God’s way.

More Misinterpretations in the Bible

As I wrote in the last message, people in the Old Testament were not generally indwelled by the Holy Spirit. But, in some cases, God put His Spirit in a person for a special purpose.

 

Exodus 31: 1-6:  Read these verses before reading what I am writing.

The Lord called a man named Bezaleel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. (Jesus would come through the tribe of Judah.)  And the Lord said that He had filled Bezaleel with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to [make things for the tabernacle.]  (I daily ask our Father for these very things.)

 

There is a message here.  God doesn’t ask us to do anything that He hasn’t already equipped and prepared us for.

 

And, as we read on in Chapter 31, we see that God establishes a covenant between Himself and Israel. Verse 16: "Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations for a pepetual covenant." And today’s Jews do keep the sabbath.

 

But this causes quite a bit of confusion in today’s churches. Some say that Saturday is the true sabbath. Some worship the Lord on Sunday because that is the day of the week when Jesus rose from the grave. In truth, the sabbath was a covenant between God and the Israelites. Covenants in the Old Testament were completed by Jesus when He did the work of the last sacrifice.  Jesus is now our covering. He is our Intercessor – our Priest. Christians today are not under the covenant of the Old Testament.  Those who have been born again in Jesus are dead to the old law. We are no longer bound by it.  So, we worship our Savior, Jesus, on the day He rose from death to life by the power of God.

 

Don’t let people confuse you by their misunderstandings.  Strife comes from mininterpreting the Word. Study to show yourselves approved, a workman who needs not be ashamed.

So Much Misinterpretation of the Bible

So much error exists in the world today because people have misinterpreted the Bible. Some read into it what they want to hear. Some don’t read it at all; they take what others say for the truth. To know the real truth, one must read the Bible while asking God to give enlightenment and understanding.

 

Some people think they can take any kind of oil and make it holy oil to annoint people or things.  This is not true. Oil represents the Holy Spirit. Since the people in the Old Testament did not have the Holy Spirit living in them (at least not many), the Lord told Moses how to make a special holy oil to be used in the tabernacle and for putting on the things in the tabernacle. Specific instructions were given for the making of this oil. (See Exodus 30: 22-33)

And this oil was not to be put on any person’s skin except for Aaron and his sons so that they could minister unto the Lord in the priest’s office.  If it was put on another person, that person would be cut off from his people. There is a warning for people not to make any other oil like this. If someone did, that person would be cut off from the people.

 

This was a represenatation of the Holy Spirit who would come into all belevers when they accepted the sacrifice of Jesus in the New Testament.  It was a foreshadowing. Those who say that the Bible is just a collection of books that are not cohesive should know that all things in the Old Testament foreshadows things to come in the New Testament.

 

The Lord also told Moses to make a kind of incense to be used in the tabernacle. The sweet spices of this mixture speaks of Jesus. Jesus today sits by the Father as our Intercessor.  It was not to be used as a perfume and was not to be made by the people for their pleasure.  What is condemned here is making worship a mere pleasue to the natural man. All the things made for use in the tabernacle was to enable God to meet with the priests. Verse 36:  "…and put some of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet wit you: it shall be unto you most holy."

 

Incense speaks of prayers of the people today.  Lots of people burn incense in their houses. But in spiritual thinking, it represents the prayer to God.

 

We should know these things so we won’t do the wrong thing with a right motive. I am going to write more about the things that have been misunderstood and make today’s Christianity confusing.
