Do  You  Have  Christ's  True  Doctrines?      

Dear Friend,

If you read the articles on Salvation on my web site and the articles on God’s Two Witnesses, you know that there are NO true Christians in the world today.  All the Christians have been  alienated  from God Col.1:20 through “deception”  Rev.12:9, as God preordained it that in God’s future “ages to come” Eph.2: 7 we may be   reconciliated  to God Col.1:20 through His “operation of salvation” Col.2:12.  I am sorry to say that Christianity and its salvation is not God’s salvation. 

Christ has warned us that we, who live now at the “End of the World”  Mat.24:3, will be like the people in Noah’s day V.24 and will be   WITHOUT  God’s  “holy spirit,”  which allows us to be Christians, and we are also without God’s true “knowledge of salvation”  Lk.1:77.  God’s full salvation was given to Apostle Paul in the revelations of the “mystery” Eph.3:3.  Our religions are exactly as the religions were before the flood, when they worshipped  “other gods”  not the God of Israel Josh.24:2,  our Creator, Jesus our Christ Eph.3:9.  Only one man and family worshipped God before the flood in each generation. 

Christ warned us that by the time of the End, the Christians’ “doctrines” will be as the “doctrines of the Pharisees and the Sadducees” Mat.16:6,12, which  SHUT  UP   the Kingdom of Heaven against men,”  preventing us to reach eternal life or will   CLOSE  the doors to salvation Mat.23:13!   We have forgotten God’s religion, which is based on  “laws,”  the Old Testament’s ten (10) laws and the New Testament’s one  (1)  “law of faith,”  and God’s  Mystery, where we change to God’s “laws of the spirit,” to determine what is  SIN  IJn.3:4,  requiring from us to  “accept”  Christ’s sacrifice and our own Mat.16:25: Phil.1:29; 2:10 to “atone”  for our sin.  We are now as the world was in Noah’s day, and later the people were in Sodom and Gomorrah, and as in the time of Christ when He said  “there is NONE good but  ONE, that is God”  Mat.19:17.  Paul confirmed this to us in Rom.3:10. 

This is why Christ warned us that those  “few”  Mat.7:14, whom God   “calls”   Acts.10:41 must “come out” of this world’s religious deception Rev.18:4, and of the world’s way of doing things, or we will receive the  “plagues”  which will come on the world, which will  “kill”  humanity as God killed the population of the world in  Noah’s  day Mat.24:37. 

If you have read my previous newsletters, you know that our Creator used our   desperately  wicked   Jer.17:9  “spirit of man”  ICor.2:11, to aid Satan the Anti-god to “deceive”  us Rev.12:9 that we may be   “alienated” to be  “reconciliated”   to Him.   Our Creator pre-ordained that in this age or “dispensation”  Eph.1:10 we all may experience “evil,”  which He “created” Isa.45:7,  that when our time comes, in the “ages  to come”  Eph.2:7 God could finish His creation process in us. 

Our deception can be proven theologically, legally, financially and in every other way.  Satan used our greedy fearful spirit of man to use his “credit” system instead of God’s   MONEY!   This made it necessary to use Satan’s “codes” (private law, or instructions in the absence of law) instead of God’s  LAWS.  Using and obeying Satan’s way made all of us Idolaters.  We read that “his servants we are whom we obey” Rom.6:16.  The  “whole world”  Christians, Jews, and Gentiles are now totally, completely and irreversibly deceived Rev.12:9.   Unless Christ by His preordained plan  sends His   TWO   WITNESSES   Rev.11:3 to “restore” the truth to us Mat.17:11 there would not even have the   “remnant”   of Christianity when Christ returns.  

These Witnesses and their four Prophets are about to appear.  These Prophets will   “restore”   God’s truth and will cause a   REVIVAL   of God’s laws, religions and governments Acts.3:19!   God to fulfill His words will also   “pour out God’s holy spirit”   using His Two Witnesses Acts.2 :17, on a   “few”  in this age Mat.7:14 that there would be “faith,” Christ’s  “doctrines”  of the Old Testament and the New Testament and the Mystery on the earth  Lk.18:8.  If you are not going to be in this   REVIVAL   you will be like the people in Noah’s day, not knowing to the last minute that your destruction is coming.  This is why we must examine our beliefs and compare them with God’s Two Witnesses doctrines. 

Do  You have the “Fruits” of a Christian?

God’s greatest “fruit” of His spirit is   LOVE,   sacrificial love Jn.15:13. The foundation of Christianity is based on God’s sacrificial love.  God demands that you be willing to  “lose”  your  life  to  “find”  eternal life Mat.16:25.  If you are willing to  “save”  your life, it is guaranteed that you will   “lose”  it  Mat.16:26.  

To gain God’s love, you must become a   fool   in this world!  God’s love is “foolishness” to the world ICor.2:14, requiring you in God’s religion to have faith  because  as a fool you can’t become successful in this world, because the   CONFLICT   you have with the world. You must have faith to give up your life in this world, to gain it in the eternal world.  This is why without faith it is impossible to please God Heb.11:6!  Through “enduring”  Mat.24:13 this   conflict  you become “perfect in God’s love”  IJn.4 :18. This is how you qualify to be in the “resurrection” ICor.15:52 to eternal life.  

This is why to “obey”  God is the difficult and narrow road Mat.7:14, and given in this age to be found by a “few” not the “many”   Mat.7:13.  This is why the “trial of your  faith  being much more precious than gold that perishes”  that after we “perfected”  our love IJn.4:12 by going through God’s  “operation” or process of salvation Col.2:12, we may gain “praise, honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ” IPet.1:7.  These are those who  “first trusted in Christ” Eph.1:12, the  “firstfruits”  Rev.14:4, the Great Multitude Rev.7:9 and the Elect of God Mat.24:22, in this age or dispensation Eph.1:10.  

The rest of the people and the angels will learn God’s love in the  “ages to come” Eph.2:7, most of them after Christ’s millennial reign.  Only a very few are “called” now Jn.6:44, whom our Father calls to be His “witnesses” against our sins Acts.10:41, in the future, when Christ will  “judge” us Phil.2:10.  

We all will be  “tried”  to see if we are willing to give up,   LOSE   our lives for others Mat.16:25.  We are asked: How can we love God if we don’t love our brothers  IJn.4:20?  The coming trials will be very strong.  “Brother shall deliver up the brother to   DEATH,  and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to   DEATH  Mat.10:21.  

How  will  this  conflict  take  place?  Our Creator   “is the truth”  Jn.14:6 who is Jesus our Christ Eph.3:9.   Christ requires that you  “obey”  His laws.  The Anti-god, is the “god of this world”  2Cor.4:4, Satan, the devil Jn.8:44.  He is the   OPPOSITE   of Christ,  and has  “no truth in him”  Jn.8:44.  Satan’s kingdom or government is  NOT   based on law and truth but on “iniquity” Mat.7:23, lawlessness, the world calls “codes.”   The population of the world is now forced to obey the   codes   of the Ant-god, not Christ’s   laws!     

This conflict is deadly because we read “his servants you are to whom you obey”  Rom.6:16.  We can’t obey two masters, God and mammon  Mat.6:24!  Now all humans are forced to  U-S-E  and by it to   “OBEY”  the Anti-god’s  “codes” and “credit,” instead of God’s  “laws” and “money.”  This makes every human and Christian an Idolater which is the transgression of God’s first law, and is a   SIN    IJn.3:4,  and the wages of  SIN  is death Rom.6:23!   

Satan’s government is forcing you to be an idolater, unless you know how to  “come out”  of it Rev.18:4 and become   NEUTRAL   to it by entering God’s   KINGDOM   of Heaven  Mat.6:10, 33 by setting up God’s government on earth legally and its physical Embassy, to be an Ambassador of God ICor.5:20!   

 Family members who are not “called” by God Jn.6:44, to   SAVE   their lives, to keep their jobs, because they are “afraid”  of the government of the Anti-god, will betray their family members and other Christians, as Judas betrayed Jesus our Christ for thirty peaces of silver.  When these people will do this, they sign their own death warrant because Satan’s job is to “steal,  kill   and to destroy”  Jn.10:10 those who do not obey our Creator, Christ.  Patriot Acts I & II will assure this division among God’s people.  

This is what took place behind the Iron Curtain and this is what will again take place now world wide after   The   BEAST   comes on the scene, ruling the whole world.  The laws are now in place that those who are not going to worship, which means to   “obey”  the Beast’s rules, or codes will be  “killed”   Rev.13:15.  Those who are not going to be   “neutral”   to the Beast’s system,  will not be able to   buy  and  sell!    To live and to support self or a family, one must participate in the system of  The BEAST   Rev.13:17.   To participate in The   BEAST’S   system,  you will need to receive the   MARK   of the  BEAST   v.17, which is the mark of death.  Why?   The Mark of the Beast is the undeniable  “sign”   that one does not have God’s sacrificial love, being unable to sacrifice one’s life for obeying our Creator.  This lack of God’s love in us makes us an  Enemy  of God  James 4:4.  This brings the automatic death sentence from Christ Lk.19:27.  So you see the First Command is the most important one being converted or not.    

Do You have Works as a Christian?

Jesus warned us   “Not every one that says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but  he / she that does the  will  of my Father which is in heaven”  Mat.7:21.   Many Christians  prophecy in Jesus’ name, and perform miracles, cast out devils, and do wonderful  works,  yet Jesus will say to them in this age unfortunately,  “I never knew you that  work   iniquity," lawlessness V.23.

We are told how to recognize a Christian.  We must examine their   “works”  or   “fruits”  Mat.7:20!  It is not enough to  “believe”  only, because we read that the  “devils also believe, and tremble”  Jams.2:19 but they have no salvation.   

So what is the most important  “work”  of a Christian?   Apostle John after He learned Paul’s gospel Rom.2:16, God’s mystery Eph.3:3 remembered Jesus’ saying:   “This is the   WORK  of God, that you  ‘believe’  on Him  (Jesus and His servants) whom He  (the Father in heaven)  sent”  Jn.6:29.  To   “work the work of God”  V.28 you must have  “faith,”  to  “endure”  the conflict  Mat.24:13 between God’s Kingdom and the Anti-god’s  “lower” kingdom.   

 You are an   Ambassador   of God as a Christian  2Cor.5:20!  You are  God’s  witness  Acts.10:41 as Apostle Paul was  Acts.22:15 and all those who ever served God representing the invisible, eternal of  God’s  “higher”   spiritual  kingdom   which exist on the earth.  At the End of the World Mat.24:3  God will have three kingdoms.  The first kingdom is of the world, ruled by Satan and the Beast under Christ, built on lawlessness.  The second  physical kingdom  will be for carnal people given to Moses and Israel, built on the “laws of flesh”  Rom.7:25 of the ten (10) commandments.  The third kingdom is given to the saints,  God’s  spiritual kingdom built on the  “laws of faith”  Rom.3:27.  There also will be a fourths kingdom, but that will be given in God’s Place of Safety which His angels will prepare for us in the  “wilderness”  Rev.12:6, given to God’s Elect, based on God’s “laws of the spirit” Rom.8:2.  

Why  are  these  kingdoms  of  God  are  so  important?  We know that Satan is the “god of this world” and rules the world.  As Christians to help maintain the balance between “good and evil,” God created for us  Christians, we are given the duty and the “work”  to pray for God’s   KINGDOM  Mat.6:10.  We are not only to pray for God’s Kingdom, but to establish it and its Embassies,  that “God’s  WILL  be done on earth, as it is in heaven” V.10.  

If God’s kingdom is not established, there will be total   “confusion”  and chaos on the earth, because Satan must operate as an Anti-god, or opposite to God in “lawlessness.”  Lawlessness brings increasingly more evil, death and destruction as it will be at the End of the World, when Satan will be ruling without “good and evil,”   and the influence of Good!   

Without God’s Kingdom established, Christianity can’t be practiced, because Christians, must live by God’s  LAWS,  while the un-converted live by Satan’s  “codes.”   This is why Israel had to come out from Egypt because the Pharaoh did not live by God’s laws and religion, but the Anti-god’s “codes” and religion.  Satan’s system in Egypt was founded on the same “codes” or lawlessness as it is now.  

Jesus told us that when He was with us that God’s greatest  WORK  is to believe in him whom He has sent.  We now must believe God’s  Two Witnesses  Rev.11:3 and the way they are showing us   HOW   to   “come out”   of this world, not the way we might do it.  We must remember that  “There is a way which   SEEMS   right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death”  Prov.14:12.  We must “trust in the Lord with all our heart; and lean not unto your own understanding” Prov.3:5.  We must do that because God’s ways are “foolishness” to us ICor.2:14.  Our carnal nature naturally  does not want to “obey” God and His servants.  

Your work as a Christian is to establish God’s Kingdom and by it hold back the evil 2Thes.2:6, and to warn the world of the End of the World and to  “call”  true Christians out of the churches.

Which  Seven Churches  of God are You In?  

According to your  “works”  Christ will divide you into His seven churches.  The Anti-god in the mean time must do the opposite of Christ and unite his churches and religions to be opposite of God. This is a sign to those whom our Father is calling to prove who is right and who has the truth or the error.  

Based upon your faith and “beliefs,”  your  “doctrines,” you will have  “works.”  According to your works you might be in God’s  Ephesus  church  Rev.2:1-7.  This church is well to do.  They are intellectuals who have good works, and labor patiently in Christ’s name to establish God’s kingdom the best way they can.  They are able to identify Satan’s false apostles, and the doctrines of the Nicolaitanes, the doctrines of the Pharisees and the Catholic Church, and they cast them out from among them. However they lost their first love.  Unless they repent they will not be saved.  Those who repent will receive eternal life.  

The second  church in  Smyrna  Rev.2:8-11 is a poor church, but rich in God, because they endure the conflict between the world, ruled by people who call themselves “Jews” but they are the “synagogue of Satan,”  and God’s way.  These suffer in the conflict between God and Satan’s systems. If they stay faithful and in death they will gain eternal life.  

The   church in  Pergamos   Rev.2:12-17 is located close to Satan’s seat.  They have Christ’s name and truth and some of them martyred for Christ.  Some of them kept the doctrines of the Pharisees, the Nicolaitanes because they are so close to them. They are blinded by their sin and Christ will fight them.  If they overcome the “fear of death,” they will be in the resurrection and receive a new name.  

The fourth  church of  Thyatira   Rev.2:18-29 is a powerful church because of their works, love, service to others, faith and patience.  If they get rid of the doctrines of Jezebel, the church of Rev.17 they will rule over the nations from heaven, according to their works.  If they will not repent Christ will kill them.

The fifth  church in  Sardis  Rev.3:1-6 is a dying church, because they are too involved in the world. They are too busy to worry about God, so Christ’s coming will surprise them.  There are only few worthy to be assistants of Christ. To be in the resurrection they have to die.  

God’s sixth  church is in  Philadelphia  Rev.3:7-13.  They have very little strength, yet they are the most powerful church because they have God’s Key of David or the Key of knowledge of God’s full salvation Lk.11:52,  Paul’s gospel the mystery.  They have mighty spiritual power on earth and in heaven, to do God’s   WORK.  They set up God’s Kingdom of Heaven on earth, to “bind and loose,” and open and shut, by restoring God’s mystery, shutting to some the administration of faith, to enter the reality of Christ’s eternal world.  Their work through obedience will be rewarded by allowing them to be in the resurrection without dying V.10; IThes.4:17, gaining God’s highest rewards and crowns.

The seventh  church of the  Laodiceans  Rev.3:14-21 is rich in the world, thinking they are spiritually rich, when they are destitute. They mix God’s and Satan’s worlds. They are neither cold nor hot, can’t make up their minds who to obey.  For this Christ will reject them, unless they repent. They will go into the tribulation where they will die.  Christ will correct those whom He loves, gaining salvation through death.  

Please remember that these churches are just going to form, after their members  “come out” from the world and the deceived Christianity after God’s   REVIVAL   has started Acts.3:19.  We are now as the people were in Noah’s day Mat.24:37; Rev.12:9, so these churches will be the result of  God’s  “work” Acts.13:41 performed by God Two Witnesses  and their four Prophets.   

I pray that you may hear God’s warning to become a true Christian, and that you are baptized by one of God’s Two  Witnesses!  I pray that you may become part of God’s   “work,”   to help   WARN   the world, and to   CALL  God’s children out of the Churches of the Anti-god.  I pray that you become an   ELECT  of  God   to be in the  “better”  resurrection at Christ’s second coming Heb.11:35, without dying.    

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

In the reality of Christ's eternal love, 

your friend and brother,
