MORE LEAVEN

                                         

1 Cor 5:7-8

7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
KJV

This week the Pope was reported to have said “Jesus was not God, just a very good human“.  Really, Is this a sign the Vatican has been lost to the secularists?  What does The Word have to say about this?

Matt 1:23
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
KJV

IMMANUEL

that is, God with us, the title applied by the apostle Matthew to the Messiah, born of the Virgin, Matt 1:23; Isa 7:14, because Jesus was God united with man, and showed that God was dwelling with men.

Gal 1:8-9
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
KJV

Gal 1:11-16

11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:

14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,

16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
KJV

If you are truly a Christian, without the Tennent that” Jesus was God on Earth ” you have no foundation for your faith. Can the leaders of our religious community really be that far from God’s Word.  Their congregations are made up of Good Christian People but they are not being prepared for the Great Deception.  Of all the Christian Churches in the world (seven at that time) only two received God’s favor, for they taught that the Kenites are the children of Satan (Cain & his lineage), and all that entails.  Jesus refers to them as Tares.  They will be with us until the end of times.

Matt 13:24-30
 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
KJV-

Please see   King James Bible  Rev 1:20 – 3:22

Unfortunately, they are everywhere, and most are easy to identify when you realize their motives!

So, did the Pope really say this?  Probably not.  But it’s still out there like Leaven, contaminating anyone that will allow it-Those without the Seal of god in their Forehead.   The Pope is a sincere, “good” Christian, but he is definitely not the leader of a Philadelphia or Smyrna Church, with which God found favor.

If you teach of the Tares or Kenites they will ridicule you.  Even “So Called” Clergy  will belittle you, even though it’s the basis for the ongoing war between Christ and Satan.  You can quote verse by verse from the Bible,  and they will dismiss it.  up is down, down is up.

You cannot please everyone and “be of this world” and also be a Christian with God’s Favor. 

Be alert, a good watchman never sleeps, have faith in God and His Son Jesus Christ.  Be happy, it’s only going to get worse, but you always have the Sabbath for rest and protection.

KJV

Passover-the Highest Holiest Sabbath.

Sabbath-to rest (not a noun, like a day of the week, but a verb to rest.  We rest is in Christ.  AMEN

GOD BLESS

 

 

Beware the leaven

Yesterday Attorney  General Barr gave a speech  yesterday outlining how our country has  gotten away from by the basic tenants of our Christian heritage.  And even though he pointed out these basic ideals are voluntary, they have made the fabric of our country great, and our failure to continue to live by this has affected our society in a negatively.

Christ warns us of the leaven and those that teach it, many times.

Mark 6:34-44 34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. 35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed: 36 Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat. 37 He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat? 38 He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes. 39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass. 40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties. 41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all. 42 And they did all eat, and were filled. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes. 44 And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand m KJV

John 6:50-51 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. KJV

Matt 4:4 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. KJV

Matt 16:6-12 6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. 7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread. 8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread? 9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? 12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. KJV

Christ supplies the Bread, God’s Word, but the disciples feed it to the multitudes.  As we feed them the word, gather up what’s not eaten.  Don’t waste any on those that don’t want it.  Also, be sure to beware the LEAVEN!  The teachings of the Pharisees (those that believe in the traditions of man-ie. religion) and the Sadducees (those that believe only in man).  Feed only GOD’S WORD, nothing else.

“Give Us Our Daily Bread”!  Don’t be distracted by all leaven in the world, which is about all there is, but search out the Bread.  Eat all you can hold; never hunger.Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: KJV

GOD BLESS!

Loaves & Fishes – Feeding the Multitude

fishes 2

CHRIST FEEDS THE MULTITUDE –   FIVE LOAVES AND TWO FISHES FEED FIVE THOUSAND!  

Would you be upset with me if I told you that Christ did not feed the Multitude?  Lets go through the scripture line by line and I will explain why I would say such a thing.

Matt 14:14-21 14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. 15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals. 16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat. 17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

Five loaves – five is the number for grace, God’s salvation through Jesus Christ Two fishes- two is the number for witnessing, union.  Note that they are fed not only bread, but also meat-fishes.(Matt 4:4 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. KJV)  There is more to the word of God than salvation.  The remainder of the food Christ supplies is for His flock to learn from and feed to others

18 He said, Bring them hither to me. 19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

Christ first commands the crowd to sit on the grass.  He does not just start throwing loaves into the crowd, but organizes them and settles them down. (in Mark :6 Christ commands them to sit by groups of fifties-the Holy Spirit- and by one hundreds-election, the chosen)  Christ takes the loaves and fishes, looks to heaven, blesses them, gives them to His disciples, who then feed the multitude.  Christ first gives the food to his disciples, they then feed it to others.  Christ produces an endless bounty of food for the multitude, but it is His disciples that He has feed the multitude.  (also note that the bread is fed first (also in Mark, Luke & John), salvation must come before the understanding of God’s word.)  In this instance, Mathew : 14,  Christ blesses the loaves and fish, and gives them to the disciples, but there is no mention of the fishes being fed to the multitude, just the loaves – the “meat” was for the disciples

20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full. Twelve-governmental perfection, the number of Tribes of Israel, the number of Disciples

. Matt 16:5-12 5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread. 6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. 7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread. 8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread? 9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? 12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. KJV

After the Word of God has been fed to man, never take what is left over, or returned.   Man will “leaven” the word and it will no longer be the Word of God , but the traditions of men.

Christ will supply the food and no matter how many of His flock His disciples  feed, there will always be more.  And as man does not live by bread(salvation) alone, but every Word of God, as his disciples feed more and more from the meat of God’s Word, the more knowlege He will reveal.

This is a rather innocuous example of how the Word of God is made void by the traditions of man, but if you accept the traditional meaning of this passage, and read through it with that in mind, you completely miss the meaning(s) that were meant to be conveyed.  Although it’s traditional meaning  is that Christ performed a miracle  and  fed the multitude, the real meanings go much deeper. Much deeper than I have discussed here.

As long as you rely on the Word of God, and that Word only, you will never run out of food-knowlege, for yourself, or for you to share with His flock, and new and varied food will continually be supplied. 

The real miracle is that the more you share the more God reveals. This is the “Work” God has for us to do., feed the true Word of God to His children.   And the most wonderful part is that the more we share, the more we receive.

God Bless
