How to Gain God's Power

November 12, 2004

Dear Friend,

We are living at the   "End of the World"  Mat.24:3, and in the  "sixth seal,"  the  "tribulation."  For you to believe, what I said, and to know our Creator, you need God's power, because you can't accept truth without it.

We are told that you can't see God and live, because He is a  "consuming fire"  Heb.12:29. He is more powerful than the atomic or neutron or other bombs. He can destroy the universe which He created and the angels and men.

God's plan of  salvation  required it that He  "hide"  behind His Anti-god. The  "god"  you know is the  Anti-god.   We are told that we are like the people in Noah's day Mat. 24:37, who only knew the Anti-god. We are  all  "deceived"   Rev.12:9, to worship the Anti-god.

Now, to prepare for the  end  of the  "sixth seal"  Rev.6:12, the Anti-god is setting up his final,  pre-ordained  world ruling system and kingdom. God, our Creator also introducing His  Three  Kingdoms  now, preparing us to rule with Him, in the  "coming ages"  after the millennium Eph.2:7.

As in the past, God is using   ONE   Prophet at a time, while the Anti-god has  "many"  prophets. The Anti-god, must preach  "good news"  to carnal Christians, because carnal's can't accept bad news. They  CAN'T  because they have  no  eternal life in them. This is why true Christians, who have God's  "holy spirit,"  not the  Holy Spirit,  must overcome the  "Fear of Death"  Heb.2:15 to be in the  RESURRECTION  Rev.21:8.

To overcome the  "fear of death"  you must have power. Now God's power and the Anti-god's   POWER   are opposites, and can't be mixed. You either   use  one or the other.

The power of the Anti-god is  FORCE,  to intimidate and   W-A-R   against you. He use  MONEY  to corrupt you. Since the Anti-god  must  use force, he  can't  elicit your good will and cooperation. He must  "deceive"  you that he is  "good"  and doing good for you Jn.8:44, when his created function is to  "steal"  from you, to  "kill"  You, and to  "destroy"   your family and the world Jn.10:10. This is why his system is so  secretive.  This is why carnal humans and angels, not having the power of God, His holy spirit are so easily  "deceived"  by Satan Rev.12:9.

There is a difference between   "God's way"   Mat.7:14 and the   "Anti-god's way"   V.13. God's way leads to eternal  LIFE,  while Satan's way to eternal  DEATH  Jer.21:8; Mat. 10:28, Rev.21:8! Since the holy spirit is available in this age only to a  "few"  Mat.7:14, the "many" are forced to accept the Anti-god a  "god,"  as the one true god, and his power to live.

You as a  "carnal,"  temporary being, must accept the Anti -god's power to   SAVE   ;this life, in an environment of  WAR,  and to gain eternal life. Satan  "deceives"  you that in this life, you have eternal life and are a "god." This is why the  SECRET   foundation of Satan's power is based on the   "immortality of the soul"   doctrine. (You don't die, when you die.) This was the first  LIE   which deceived carnal Eve Gen.3:4. To  PREVENT  you to gain God's  power,  and eternal life, the Devil promotes the   "Trinity"    doctrine. (The  "Godhead"  is limited to God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit Acts.17:29; Rom.1:20; Col.2:9.)

All the other  false doctrines  are based or connected with these two foundational tenets. This is the secret or the   "mystery of iniquity"   of the Anti-god 2Thes.2:7.

Now, you see why you must  "give up"  or  Lose  the power Satan gives you Mat.16:25, to  Gain  God's power and spirituality. You must  Lose   your carnality and gain spirituality, for  "to be carnally minded is  DEATH;  but to be spiritually minded is  LIFE  and peace"  Rom.8:7.

How does God's Power work in Your Life?

Christians do  not  have God's power working in their lives. In this age they can only have one of the spirits of God's seven angel's, who are over God's  seven Churches  Rev. 2 & 3. This is why we were told, that we are like the people in Noah's day Mat.24:37, and are  ALL  "deceived"   Rev.12:9. Christians worship  "angels,"  as followers of the Old Testament were ITim.4:1, and will worship without a cloak under the  Beast  and the  False Prophet  Rev.9:20. Please remember that even the highest ranked angels are much  "lower"  in kind than the God kind Heb.1:4.   (See my previous article and articles.)  Many Christians have one of the spirits of the many angels of the Anti-god.

This is why Jesus promised to send a   "time of refreshing"   at the  "End of the World"  Acts.3:19, by   "pouring out His holy spirit upon all flesh"   Acts.2:17, through His  "Two Witnesses"  Rev.11:3.

This is needed, because the true Christians will be very severely    "persecuted"    by the Beast's system, and by the Beast, that they could overcome their fear of death! To  "endure"  the persecution Mat.24:13, you will need God's power as Jesus needed it. It is very difficult to  lose  your life, even with God's holy spirit helping you. Jesus sweat blood before He had to give up His life Lk.22:44.

The  "operation of God"  Col.2:12 to receive God's Power was given to Apostle John. Those  "few"  will receive God's power now, who have   "heard,"  and  "learned"   of the Father, to come to Christ Jn.6:44,45, to  "believe"  Christ. This is why  "our greatest  WORK"  is to  "believe"  God Jn.6:29.

Once you  "believe"  God, you can have  "faith"  to be willing to  "lose"  your physical life, to gain your eternal spiritual life Mat.16:25. Faith is needed, because you will  "stand by faith"  to endure your trials Rom.11:20.

Faith  is needed until you enter the  "reality"  of one of God's  three kingdoms.  Once God's Kingdoms are set up as a reality in this world, and in  YOUR  life, less and less faith is required. God's power and reality to you will be proportional to the Kingdom of God you will enter.  (God has three kingdoms on earth now, see previous articles on this.)

God's power is  proportional  with the  holy spirit  in you, and that can be measured by your faith. So power is synonymous with faith. This is why you need to  "build up your most holy faith"  Jude 20, by fasting, study and ACTS of faith, until you  "live by faith"  Rom.1:17, for your  "faith is made perfect"  James 2:22 by  "works."

With  faith  you  can move mountains  in your life and others Mat.17:20, if you are   "not wavering"   in your confession of faith Heb.10:23, when your faith is tried IPet.1:7. It is required that you develop   "patience"   like  Abraham,  who had to trust God to have a son, after he could not father one, and his wife was past menopause.

Since you must lose your carnality, you should not ask things to  consume it on your lust.  Ask things for others' benefit to help yourself. As God works indirectly with you, you must work indirectly for your benefit and self IJn.4:20.

These principles will be most important, when you will be hauled into  courts,  of the Anti-god. If you rely on your power or  knowledge  only, without you preparing like Noah for the flood, by   "coming out"   of this world Rev.18:4 and   "entering into"   one of God's Kingdoms, God will try your faith. If you have faith, God will  "turn the heart / spirit of the judge what ever He will"  Prov.21:1. He might turn it against you, if you are not willing to lose your life, and are not willing to be sacrificial.

God's aim is to teach you how He thinks and acts Isa.55:8. You can only learn  "His way"  if you are willing to give up and lose  "your way"  Mat.16:25.

Power is given according to your Office.

God to create His  sacrificial love  Jn.15:13 in you to use his assume powers, had to  "create evil"  Isa.45:7, the  "fear of death."  This is why to gain God's power, you must give up Satan's power and your life. Without  "losing"  your life you can't gain eternal life ICor.15:50!

As you grow in character, by giving up your life, you gain different offices and status in God's Ekklesia or church, for the edification of others ICor.12:28. In God's governments you gain power of authority, with equal responsibility. This is opposite to the Anti-god's way. The stronger the tyranny the less the responsibility is in Satan's government.

As a true Christian, you must  "came out"  Rev.18:4 of your church, and legally, financially of this system, to be an  "Ambassador"  of God 2Cor.5:20, that God may give you power. You know that for you to  "become perfect"  Mat.5:48; Phil. 3:15, by  "perfecting"  yourself Eph.4:12, must experience  "evil."  Jesus said:  "for it must needs be that offences  (EVIL)  come; but  WOE  to that  MAN  by whom the offence or  (EVIL)  come!"  Mat.18:7.

God's way and the Anti-god's way   MUST  collide, that you could overcome your   "fear of death"   Heb.2:15. God to help you, is warning you and those whom you must oppose if you  "obey"  God, that they like you are  "judged"  by their actions too.  "The way"  they oppose you,  "the way"  they also will be  "JUDGED"   for God is not a respecter of persons Acts.10:34.

This is why the way the Anti-god's government will try to harm God's Two Witnesses, will be punished the same way Rev.11:3,5. Our Creator, Jesus is not only Holy, but righteous also. The Creator's   L-A-W-S   are absolute.  All other  "laws"  or  "codes,"  are under and subject to God's   L-A-W-S!    This is why the earlier and closer you   "obey"   the Creator, the more protection you receive from Him.

Those who  judge you  un-righteously, you can say:  "with what judgment you judge, you  SHALL  be judged"  Mat.7:2! Remember that the   "righteous"  are  "witnesses"   of God Acts.10:44, who witness the crimes now, and at Christ's judgment seat as a  "witness"  again. It is possible that you will judge the very judge who condemned you un- righteously.  This is the story of Joseph in the Bible.

Christ is using the great  EVIL  we are living in now, and the evil you are willing to endure, to qualify you to be in His higher and higher government, from the  Old Testament,   to the  New Testament,  and from there to the  Mystery of God.   You are  promoted,  advanced  or  lifted  to higher and higher Kingdoms, and positions or offices in these Kingdoms now. Your  rewards  are given at the coming of Christ Mat.16:27.

God will give you power now, to do what the saints did after Pentecost, like  St. Steven  and others. God will give you power, if you  QUALIFY  for it, to do what Paul did. Paul blinded the  "sorcerer ... Elimus"  Acts. 13:6-12 who opposed him to convert Sergius Paulus. God will use    Y-O-U   to show other Christians that He is not  "hiding"  now, as He did before, but is strong to protect those who trust Him.

God wants to use you, to help and convert the   "great multitude of the Gentiles"   Rev.7:9, whom God has prepared and made ready to come to Him. You are living at the End of the World. You are the  LAST,  at the very  End of this Age.  We are told that in the  "judgment"  the   "LAST shall be FIRST,   and the first shall be last: for  'many'  are called, but  'few'  are chosen"  Mat.20:16.

When you consider that the  only true Christians  are those, who are  called and baptized  by God's   Two Witnesses,   you know God will work with you, to reach His "Great Multitude."  Your opportunity and rewards are greater than ever, because the  EVIL  is like never before or ever shall be Mat.24:21!

Gain Power to Prove Yourself.

Without gaining God's power you can't become a member of the  "Godhead"  Acts.17:29; Rom.1:20; Col.2:9, the family of God, and an  "heir,  and   JOINT-heirs with Christ"  Rom.8:17.

Now then you must  "prove yourself"  if you are God's or the Anti-god's servant.  You must  "prove what is that good and acceptable, and perfect will of God"  for you Rom.12:2! You are  "called"  and  "saved"  in this age, to fulfill God's  "purpose"  2Tim.1:9, to do God's   "WORK"   Acts.13:41 at the  End of the World,  as God's  "witness"  Acts.10:41.

God is just starting His  REVIVAL  of His truth. To do it He is sending  "trials of our faith"  IPet.1:7, to motivate the  "deceived"  Christians to  "come out"  of this world Rev.18:4. For you to have part in the  revival  you must have  power,  like Saint Steven Acts.6:5-8. To have power you must first know the truth, God's  "mystery,"  then must  "come out"  of your religion and the world, then you must be  "re-baptized."  You must do  "acts of faith,"  and learn to  "live by faith"  Rom.1:17. Then you must  "work the WORK of God,"  using God's power to  WARN  the world, and to  "CALL"  God's firstfruits.

You were called to  "fight the good fight of faith"  ITim. 6:12, to  "endure"  difficult times, as a  "good soldier of Jesus Christ"  2Tim.2:3. As a soldier you can't war and  "entangle yourself with the affairs of this life"  if you were  "chosen"  by Christ V.4. You can't  "earn a living,"  and war because you must  "live by faith."

To do God's  WORK,  you will  "suffer as an evil doer"  as Apostle Paul did 2Tim.2:9, because the world and Christianity are  "deceived"  Rev.12:9. You must  "witness,"  stand up and be the opposite what every one is, and doing. To  "stand"  you need power.

God's  WORK  will not be accomplished by  "might"  or by  "power,"   of  this world,  but by His  "spirit"  Zech.4:6. Your power is not to  "destroy,"  or  "KILL"  people, as Satan does, but to  SAVE   people from death.  God's spirit in you will give you   POWER,  to stand up and against  "all the power of the enemy"  LK.10:19, to help people to see, that God has given us   POWER   to become   "Sons of God"   Jn.1:12. (This is what the "Trinity doctrine " takes away.)

God wants to give you    "POWER    over  ALL  the power of the enemy"  Lk.10:19. The world has   "no power over you, accept it was given the world by God our Father"   Jn.19:11. If they have power over you only to help you become  "perfect"  in God's sacrificial love.

You as a baptized member of God's   "Philadelphia church"   Rev.3:7, was given the   "KEY  of the  Kingdom of Heaven:  and whatsoever you  BIND  on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall  LOOSE  on  earth shall be  loosed  in heaven"   Mat.16:19. This is your  ultimate power,  to which you need to qualify to use.

May God bless, protect and give you power to do His work.

In the reality of Christ's eternal love,
Tom Demeter
