Why We  Must  Repent     

 Dear Friend,

 I am going to do the impossible, and tell you the truth from God’s perspective.  This will upset you, because humans can’t see or accept God’s “truth” because we were created that way.   God created every man with an  “evil” and  “deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked heart”  Jer.17:9,  our “spirit of man”  not allowing us to see, believe and accept God’s truth  ICor.2:11.

 The  truth  is that  we  are  living  at the  End of the World  Mat.24:3, in the  sixth seal Rev.6:12.   God’s 1^st Witness Rev.11:3 has “restored” God’s truth Mat.17:11, that we could come out of our total deception Rev.12:9, not to receive the “plagues” coming on the world Rev.18:4, proving to us that we are like the people in Noah’s day Mat.24:37, who did not know their Creator, or had His holy spirit, or His knowledge of salvation Lk.1:77.   You must be aware that Satan was “cast down to the earth” Rev.12:9 in the US/UK  vs.  IRAQ  war in 2003.   Christ our Creator Eph.3:9 commanded Satan to open the “bottomless pit” and to release the “spirit beast”  Apollyon Rev.9:1,11.   This is why the world is full of “violence” as before the flood, and why violence is escalating Gen.6:11.  You must notice that God’s  1^st Witnesses’ public work began on   July 4,  2007.   We are also seeing the  “human Beast’s”  arrival, (whose “deadly wound will be healed”  Rev.13:12,) with the declaration of Executive Order titled “Blocking Property of Certain Persons Who Threaten Stabilization Efforts in Iraq”  on  July 17, 2007.   If this Executive Order (EO) is not blocked by the Congress and the Senate in thirty days, it will become law, declaring our President as our ruler and by it the  ruler of the world,   or the   human Beast.  

 America is the last bastion of freedom.  When we fall, the whole world is united under the leadership of the Beast, bringing the destruction and the  End of the World,  as in Noah’s day Mat.24:37.  America is now like Sodom and Gomorrah, when Abraham entreated for it, and our Creator could not find ten (10) righteous persons to save the cities Gen.18.  I feel this new EO will not be blocked and by it America will fall!   America will be  “destroyed”  by the Anti-god since this is his created function Jn.10:10.   God is using our  FALL  to warn the world, that their destruction is coming, at the End of the World.

 Biblical prophecy is being fulfilled.  God’s   1^st Witness’   public work began.  This points us to Rev.11:3 and confirms to us that our time to  REPENT  from our  “idolatry,”  for serving the Anti-god Rom.6:16 is very short, as the Devil’s work is short to destroy the world Rev.12:12.  This prophecy is being confirmed by the arrival of the  human Beast,  who prepares the world for the arrival of  “The BEAST”  of Rev.17:8, who will be the ultimate tyrant over all the nations of the world.

 We  are  given  further  confirmation  by the   National ID Card,  and its timing, which was to be installed by  May of   2008.   This card fulfills Rev.13:17, giving us the “MARK of the BEAST,” and without it Christians will not be able to  “buy and sell”  or to live.  Christians  CAN’T  serve two masters Mat.6:24, for our Creator is Christ Jesus Eph.3:9 who said   “I AM  the TRUTH”  Jn.14:6, while the Anti-god, who is the “god of this world” 2Cocr.4:4 is Satan, the Devil and he has  “NO  TRUTH  in him”  Jn.8:44.

 We know that only God’s Two Witnesses “holding back” the evil 2Thes.2:6, or the arrival of the “man of sin,” who is “The BEAST”  V.3.  These must hold back the evil for three and a half (3.5) years, to preach and publish Jesus’  “Gospel of Faith”  based on the “laws of faith” Rom.3:27, not being preached by any one but by God’s  1^st Witness,  who is doing God’s   “work”  at the End of the World Acts.13:41, for the Christians.  God’s   2^nd Witness   and its two  Prophets will be sent to Israel.

 This means that unless you are following God’s 1^st Witness, you are in great danger, and are “deceived” with the rest of the people of the world Rev.12:9, and have no access to salvation or eternal life.  If you are in any of the Christian churches, they   SHUT  the door to eternal life fron you as the Pharisees did in Jesus’ day Mat.23:13.  

 It is shocking to be confronted with the truth.  If you are still with me, our Father in heaven gave you the “earnest” of His holy spirit 2Cor.1:22, that you may be strong enough to  “bear the truth,”  what even Jesus’ disciples could not before Pentecost Jn.16:12.   You are “called”  Mat.20:16 that you may be  “chosen” to be one of Christ’s First fruits Rev.14:4, or one of his Elect Mat.24:22.   This is a very great privilege because “no man can come to Christ, unless the Father draws him” Jn.6:44 in this age.  We are told that in this age only a   “few”  are given to find the way to eternal life Mat.7:14, the  “many”  are only allowed to find the “wide and the broad way”  which leads to death V.13. 

 God loves the “many” also, but in His pre-determined plan of our salvation, His operation of God Col.2:12, the “many” must be sacrificed for the “reconciliation” of the angels (good and evil) Col.1:20, from their “alienation” to God V.21.  The  “many”  will be saved in Christ’s future  “ages to come” Eph.2:7.  Please read the articles on God’s salvation on my web site.  As the sacrifice and death of Jesus was “pre-ordained” before creation Rev.13:8, now humanity must be sacrificed the same way.

 This is why the “many” in this age Eph.1:10 can’t find the way to eternal life Mat.7:13.  They will be sacrificed for the angel’s salvation.   As you see God’s true salvation involves ALL beings humans, and the angels also, in God’s many “dispensations” or ages.  This is why Satan’s salvation is so simple and the requirements are very easy.   God’s salvation is complex and involves many beings, and ages, and the qualifications are very strict. 

 The churches require you to “come as you are” to the Lord, confess your sins and the Name of Jesus and accept his spirit into your heart and you are saved.  Salvation is available to every one, and the time period to be saved is only now.  “Dispensation” of God’s doctrine is eschewed as an error.  The angel’s salvation is not taken into account. Their theology is based on a “one way” system, and one god, and no conflict between “good and evil.”  Their  salvation  is the easy and the broad way of the  Anti-god, as practiced in all the Christian churches.  Sacrifice is not required, for Jesus did that for all of us.

 God’s true salvation is very complex.  Salvation is only for a very  “few”  in this age, and it affects all humanity, and their salvation in God’s many ages, and it involves the angels and demons also.  The requirements are very strict and we must go through the lengthy “operation of God.”   Salvation is a process, where one must be willing to   “lose”   his life to   “find”   the way to eternal life Mat.16:25, as we are willing to   “sacrifice”   for it progressively.  We are required to become  “perfect”  as our Father is in heaven Mat.5:48, by overcoming our fears, to gain eternal life IJn.4:18; Rev.21:8.  This requires that we must   “endure”  our conflicts between   “good and evil”  what God created for us Isa.45:7, that we may be able to give up our carnality to be spiritually minded.

 God’s process of repentance and salvation is given in my articles on salvation.

A  very  short  summary  of it is that it is our Father who must “call” you Jn.6:44; Acts.10:41.  He has to give you the “earnest” of His holy spirit, that you could “bear the truth.”   You will see the truth and now you must act on it, using your faith James.2:17.  You must be willing to fail, and fall on your face, and then will God send the comforter to advance you in deeper understanding, quickening your spirit, for the flesh profits nothing Jn.6:63.  This will strengthen your “believe,” by proving God’s doctrines this way Jn.7:17.  Knowing the truth, you will exercise more of your faith, knowing that you are saved through faith Eph.2:8.  Faith gives you power to be willing to “obey” Christ and to “come out” of this world Rev.18:4, that you may do “God’s will” on the earth not the Anti-god’s Mat.6:10, by setting up God’s Kingdom of Heaven’s Embassy legally, as Moses set up the physical kingdom of God on earth for Israel.  After this you can be “baptized” into the Philadelphia Church of God Rev.3:7, to  receive God’s holy spirit to be  “in”  you, not only to be  “on”  you.  Now you are an official   “Ambassador of Christ”  to the world  2Cor.5:20.  Preparing to  “flee” to God’s Place of Safety Rev.12:6, when the time of God’s 1^st Witness’ “testimony” is finished Rev.11:7.  This is how you prepare to be saved either into the resurrection, without dying or through martyrdom, or into the physical millennial reign of Christ on earth.

As a Christian you are required to “live by faith” Rom.1:17, not by insurance and the other ways of the Anti-god, who forced us to “obey” and “serve” him.  By “living by faith” you will know how to use Satan’s way, to be acceptable to our Creator, that you may be a   Place of Safety   to others, who have not advanced as fast in their process of God’s salvation.  You must love your brethren to love God IJn.4:20!  Christ will give you power to help others.

We Need  Power  to  Repent

We are “carnal” and live in the  third dimension.  We are limited many ways.  This is why we can’t stand up to Satan, the “god of this world” or his angels, or to his world system: laws, religion and government.  To be a Christian we must have power, because we can’t serve two masters.  We need power to willingly “lose”  our life to  “find”  eternal life Mat.16:25, to   “come out”   of this world, not to receive it’s deadly plagues Rev.18:4.   We need power to stand up and to establish God’s Kingdom of Heaven’s Embassy, in opposite of the Anti-god’s kingdom and systems.

Humans are afraid of losing their physical lives, unless they have God’s power to help them. 

God’s power is His  “holy spirit”  not the Holy Spirit we received in our churches.  Those who accepted and received the Holy Spirit, accepted the “Trinity Doctrine” with it, which tells us that the Godhead Col.2:9, the God family is made up of three persons only: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit as a third person of the Godhead.   No other being can penetrate this circle in any way or any time.  This is a false doctrine of the Anti-god’s salvation, and nothing could be further from the truth.

This  doctrine  eliminates  God’s  true  plan that we  ALL  may join His family after our salvation is accomplished now, or in the ages of God, including humanity and the angels.  We are all destined to be “children of God, then  HEIRS;  heirs of God,  JOINT-HEIRS  with Christ”  Rom.8:17.  This is why only those who are “led by the spirit of God, are the sons of God”  V.14.   Why is this so important?  It is because it allows us to see that our Creator’s system is based on   “good and evil,”   and that we must overcome “evil” with “good.”  Only by knowing the truth can we appreciate God’s plan of salvation for us, and that He created  “evil”  for us, that through it we could be created   “good.”

The Anti-god side tracks us not to know God’s  “holy spirit,”  preventing us to ever gain God’s power to stand up, and to  “endure”  Mat.24:13 the   CONFLICT  between good and evil, to gain eternal life.  Satan is a master of deception, who mix truth and error to poison and to kill us.  This is how his systems: law, religion and government operate, causing the door to salvation to be SHUT to us Mat.23:13.  You must be aware of Satan’s devises, or you will not be able to overcome its evil with good.

God’s other power is His  “knowledge of salvation”   Lk.1:77.  If you know God’s plan and how “good and evil” relate to us, and why evil is so important, we can have a positive attitude at all times.  This positive thinking is the assurance that God loves us, in spite of the evil He made for us to go through.   God’s love is so powerful that it gives us  “JOY,”  a manifestation of strength Nehemiah 8:10.   When you “know” ( believe, accept and practice) that you are  LOVED,  by your Creator and that you are not going to be  “tried”  more than what you are able to bear ICor.10:13,  it will give you  POWER  over the world.  You will focus on God’s power in you, not on your limitations, and you will be like little David fighting Goliath.   David knew that he did not need to kill Goliath himself, only the faith to trust God, that His angels will do the work.   David only needed to be faithful and go through the motions.   This is what the friends of Daniel knew, when they stood up to the king of Babylon.  They knew that if they died they qualified for eternal life!   They knew that God can save them in the midst of the furnace burning with great heat.  They overcame their  “fear of death,”  as we all must do to gain resurrection Heb.2:15.

When you have God’s “holy spirit” and His “knowledge of salvation,” you are able to touch God’s fifth dimension, the limitless power of the Godhead, the God family.  You are able to “walk in faith,” in miracles to overcome the power of the world, its third dimension of man, and the fourth dimension of the angels.  This is how Peter walked on water.  This is why as Peter was going to the Temple to worship God: when his shadow fell on the people, as they were laid out on the street, they were all healed. 

We  must  remember  that  God’s  power  manifest  differently  in His Old Testament, and the New Testament and His Mystery Administrations.  In the Old Testament physical miracles will be done, and you might need to give your life as a martyr, to be in God’s millennial kingdom on earth.  In the New Testament, spiritual miracles will be performed, where the flesh profit nothing Jn.6:63, and you might have to give your life as a martyr to be in the resurrection.  In the Mystery Administration both miracles will manifest, and you can be in the resurrection without dying IThes.4:17.

You must remember that God’s kingdom is based on His laws, and His religions and governments.  Knowing God requires to know His systems, as you know now the Anti-god’s systems.  You are called to be a member of His government, till Christ gives up all power and all government to our Father in heaven, when our salvation process is finished ICor.15:25-28, and all government will be given to our Father.  

Now, knowing our Creator’s plan of our   true salvation,   which was “hidden” as a “mystery” or secret until now, the very End of the World Rev.10:7, you must ask yourself  “will I repent God’s way?”  To do this we are asked to “examine” ourselves, and our believes if we are in the “faith,” religion of Christ or of the Anti-christ 2Cor.13:5?  Since Jesus’  “Gospel of Faith”  was also hidden until now, we can safely conclude that we have been   “deceived”   with the rest of the world, and all its religions and we are like the people in Noah’s day Mat.24:37; Rev.12:9, needing salvation. 

 Jesus asked us that before we answer our Father’s call to follow Christ, we need to   “count the cost”   Lk.14:28 and see if we are willing to make the   sacrifices   to be a “disciple of Christ,” as given to us in Lk.14:26,27,33.  These are pretty strict requirements.   If you are not willing to do it, you will be like the rich young man who was invited to be one of the followers of Jesus, but having great riches he could not give it up.   He lost his salvation in that age. 

 Do  you  hear  God’s  call  by  His scriptures?  Do you know that the “gifts and the calling of God is without repentance” or it is not depending on you, but on our Father in heaven Rom.11:29?  Do you realize how great is your calling, to be in the  “better”  resurrection at Christ’s second coming Heb.11:35?  Do you realize that we only have a   VERY SHORT   time to “obey” God, and to “come out” of our idolatry for serving and worshipping the Anti-god Rom.6:16?  The penalty of sin and idolatry is death Rom.6:23!  Do you see that you are under the penalty of sin and death right now, and it is only a question of time when that sentence will be executed on you?  Do you see that you are a living dead?

 You can cry out to Christ, the real Christ, with the short hair for mercy and grace, and He will hear you, for our Father has already “called” you.   If this is not true, what I am writing here is plane   “foolishness”   to you, as to the  “many,”  who are not called in this age ICor.2:14.   If you   “humble yourself”   with  fasting, study  and prayer, Christ will hear you and  will work with you, and he will protect and   SAVE  you if you don’t give up,  going through His operation of salvation. 

 What  other  option  do  you  have?   You already have on you the MARK of the BEAST, the mark of death!  Pretty soon, unless you know how to work with Satan’s government, in a way it is “acceptable” to our Creator, you will not be able to “buy and sell,” or to buy food, like the people in Zimbabwe in Africa.  This will come to America, Mexico and Canada.   America will be  “destroyed”  first as Iraq is now, and Zimbabwe, that Christ may warn the rest of the world of their destruction coming.  Yes, the  End of the World  is here, and only the  “Philadelphia Church” is given as a reward to be protected and saved at the End of the World Rev.3:10. 

 I must remind you, like Noah before the flood, that our time is very short.  In that short time you have so much to do, and to accomplish that you have no idea.   The task ahead of you is so difficult and complex that if you do not “walk by faith,” keeping your mind  on Christ, the problems will overwhelm you.  You can’t live in fools paradise and ignorance.  You can’t ignore true reality.  You need to ask God to save you.  Satan’s function is to deceive you that all  things are OK, that he may take away from you the “way of escape.”  When you lost all your freedom, you can’t gain it back but by the sacrifice of your life.

 Will  you   REPENT  that  you  may  live,  and  to  love  others  to  love  God, helping them to see the truth, to “come out” of their deceptions, and from the jaws of death.  The very End will come on the world, the un-knowing like the thief in the night.  People will be eating and drinking and marrying and buying and selling, until sudden destruction will come upon them.

 I pray that God may open your “eyes to see,” and for your “ears to hear” that you may have part in God’s “better” and first resurrection to eternal life.

 May Christ  bless,  Protect   and   SAVE   you at the   End of the World.

 In the reality of Christ Eternal love, your brother and friend,
