What Is Truth?

 

“Pilate therefore said to Him, ‘Are You a king then?’ Jesus answered, ‘You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.’” (John 18:37)

 

Jesus also said that if it were possible, even the elect would be deceived. Nobody wants to be deceived by what they’re being taught today. So how do we know what the truth is? Knowing this will determine whether you know how to walk rightly in the name of the Lord.

 

 

Living Stones

 

We are living stones, being made into a temple for His habitation. And God doesn’t choose the smooth and perfect stones to build His house, but the broken and rough ones. Most people try to get cleaned up before coming to God, but the truth is He only wants those who are broken. Now is the time to take all your garbage and put it at the feet of Jesus, for only He can straighten up your life.

 

We are all part of the temple He is building, and we need to know where we fit in it. Are you a “hinge on the door”? Are you a stone that hangs over the archway? Where do you fit in the house of God? We all have a place in it.

 

 

In His Image

 

“So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.” (Genesis 1:27)

 

This message reveals the creation of man in three parts: Body, Soul and Spirit. We were created to look exactly like God. He is our Father – the Soul, or mind, will, and emotions. Jesus is the Body, for He is the word that became flesh. And the Spirit is the Holy Spirit, for you must be born again of the Spirit of God to be God-like.

 

 

Choose Whom You Will Serve

 

Choices are the hinges of our destiny. The choices you make determine whether the doors of your destiny are going to open for you, or whether they’re going to remain closed forever. We believe in a sovereign God, but we also see in scripture that the choices made by men and women of God affected their destinies. If you don’t make any choices, the relentless drift of events will make the decisions for you. If you don’t make any plans, God will not direct your steps.

 

“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.” (Deuteronomy 30:19-20)

 

 

Bought By His Blood

 

This meeting was hosted by the Pacific Island overseer for the Church of God of Prophecy, Pastor Gary Langley, in Oahu, Hawaii. The service was streamed over the Internet and videoed for the church’s weekly television program. Pastor Langley and I have been friends for over 15 years and had many wonderful experiences ministering together. God has truly blessed this church and many of the people I have come to know very well.

 

On the flight over to the Island, I had worked out a plan with the flight attendants to help me in making a proposal to Debbie, whom I am now married to. As we were landing, one of the flight attendants came over the intercom system and asked everyone to unbuckle their seat belts, stand up and turn and look at row 43. He then made the announcement that I was to propose to Debbie, which I did and she accepted. Everyone on the plane clapped and gave their approval.

 

Now about this particular message, ‘Bought by His Blood.’ This message is for those who are going through difficult times. There is a way God has made for us to escape life’s problems that can eat on your nerves and make your life miserable.

 

If you want to see miracles in your life and watch God part the troubled waters for you, then you need to hear this message. Even if things are going well now, you can count on the fact that someday you’re going to need to know how to maneuver through the troubles of this world.

 

 

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33

This verse of scripture came to me years ago answering a nagging and confusing question. The question was; why is it I do exactly what I am being taught in the bible and I am still sick and poor? The truth may shock you!

This message, “Kingdom of God”, was recorded at River of Life Church in Kemp, Texas. You will discover what has been going on in my personal life by watching this video. Even though the prophecy I received was not recorded during this meeting the testimony of its accuracy was. Prophet David Haines was the one God used to deliver His word to me. I have known David for a number of years and have seen him discover the prophetic gift that has been imparted into him.

This video will bring you back into the truth of what God expects of us, reminding us of the contract we have made with Him.

Not much has changed since the days of the early Apostles. Paul dealt with it in his day and now we too do well to put up with it.

But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it! 2 Corinthians 11:3,4

Just because someone uses the name of Jesus does not necessarily mean they are representing the true Son of the living God. By what spirit are these teachers being motivated to rule over God’s Church?

I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ. Galatians 1:6-10

Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, prating against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church. Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. He who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen God. 3 John 10,11

Have you been put out of the local Church? People who believe God still speaks are welcome here.
