DEVIL WORSHIPERS

  I consider myself very lucky that my father was a Jesus believer. When he suddenly disappeared during the Indonesian revolution against the Dutch occupation, I was about three or four years old. I don’t remember much about him except the hundreds of picture slides that he left behind that show the second coming of Jesus Christ. I asked my mother why my dad kept so many slides? My mom told me that my dad had a home business employing a couple dozen employees. He showed the slides to his employees after they were done with their work. Many of his employees converted and became faithful Christians. My wife was not so lucky. Her father was a devil worshiper. She told me about her experience living with her dad, a devil worshiper. I am glad that my father was a Christian and not a devil worshiper. My problem with being a Christian is not small. It is not easy being a Christian. But despite my failures He always raises me back up. I am convinced that God wants me to continue with the w...

THE BEAST AND THE FALSE PROPHET

  Today I am going to write about the beast and the false prophet. Why? Here’s the urgent reason why. “Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number [is] as the sand of the sea . They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet [are]. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.“ Revelation 20:7-10. Readers, please understand that no single party can do so much deception and damage to the world except the beast, the old dragon, and the church, the false prophet. There are millions or billions of his angels that help Satan in his work to deceive us. No single false pr...

FAITH AND OBEDIENCE

  Tonight I am going to write on a subject that I feel many of us don’t understand, faith and obedience. We say that we have faith in Jesus, but we don’t do what Jesus tells us to do. We say that we have faith in Jesus’ Father but we don’t do what Jesus’ Father tells us to do. Do you know why? Here’s why. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. “ Ephesians 2:8-9.  Jesus however said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.“ Matthew 7:21.  Paul, aka Saul of Tarsus, contradicted   what Jesus said. Is that a “ gift from God ”? NO! When God says no and somebody else says yes, that is not a gift from God. That is a gift from SATAN . Again, when God says no, and someone else says yes that is the voice of SATAN! When your preacher or pastor says some things that are contrary to what...

ONE COMMANDMENT

  “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, `You shall not eat of every tree of the garden' ?" And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; "but of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God has said, `You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.'" Then the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die. "For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." So when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make [one] wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.” Genesis 3:1-6. Readers. How many commandments did God give to Adam and Eve? One, not more than one. Did they keep it? No. Why? Be...

WHY WE GO TO SCHOOL?

  Readers, I want to start this short article by asking you this first question. Why do you go to school, to be informed or to be misinformed? I am sure all of you will say to be informed. Now if I ask you this next question why do you go to church, to be informed or to be misinformed? I am sure you will say to be informed, but you may be misinformed if all you do is just swallow what your teacher or pastor says. And not only that Satan will make sure that you stay uninformed and misinformed. That was the reason why Psalm 1:1-2 says, “Blessed [is] the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.”  No teacher, pastor, preacher, or priest can fool us if our delight [is] in the law of the LORD, and in His law we meditate day and night. Satan is working day and night using the church to deceive us. There is no bet...

WE DON'T KNOW

  We don’t know that Satan has deceived us until we are deceived. Adam and Eve did not know that the serpent had deceived them until they found out that they were naked. It’s too late by then. Many Christians, including their pastors, don’t know that Satan has deceived them until they are deceived. How do we know that Satan has deceived us or not? Follow the rules . That’s it. Follow the rules. What are the rules? Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. “ Matthew 7:21. The rules can be found in the will of Jesus’ Father, YAHWEH . Doing the will of God is work or obedience . Doing the will of the serpent is no work . “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.“ Ephesians 2:8-9. Doing the will of Jesus’ Father involves a lot of self discipline . God, not Paul, will tell us what we...

IS GOD A JEW?

  We all agree that we are the descendants of Adam and Eve. Some of us were still  worshiping Yahweh as our God after Adam and Eve were evicted. Some of us worship the sun as our god, and others worship other objects as their gods. The Jews, under their prophet Abraham kept the Jews faithful to their God, Yahweh . Therefore, it should not surprise us at all why Jesus was born in Bethlehem, a small town in Judea God knew that after Adam and Eve were evicted from their home and separated from God people were worshiping other gods, the sun, a large stone, and other objects as their god. “And God spoke all these words, saying: "I [am] the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. "You shall have no other gods before Me. "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness [of anything] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them ...

CRIMINALS

  I am going to write this morning about something that I have never written before. I got this idea just now. I am already tired, but I have to write it before I forget. I have to write it before He calls me home. God said to Adam, “Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." Genesis 2:15-17. “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, `You shall not eat of every tree of the garden' ?" And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; "but of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God has said, `You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it,...
