"Father, I Do Not Want Fulfillment Without You"
August 14, 2016

"We can receive salvation and even the Kingdom, but that is no guarantee that the Father's presence will dwell with us

The father has some serious psychological issues that we can not help him with. His misery really has nothing to do with us. If he refuses to acknowledge his need to be accountable for the state of his own spirit, I would recommend that he be confined to his large room in his immense mansion, and all communication be severed between himself and the people. His people have born his problems for far too long (IMO). Frankly, obtaining salvation and the Kingdom--apart from the father--is a very good deal..and I think we should grab hold of it.
WE TAKE SALVATION AND THE KINGDOM APART FROM THE FATHER NOW!! RIGHT NOW!!!

YES, THAT'S RIGHT!

Oh yeah, the sound of Joel's Army post traumatic stress disorder.

Good read... Son of Hamas by M.H. Yousef. He was once a radical Islamic terrorist who was indoctrinated to sacrifice for the sake of their ideology (dying was a way of worship). He defected and courageously has been speaking out about and exposing the destructiveness of Hamas.

Defecting from the LW ideology wasn't easy and it came with a cost, but there are no regrets at all...well maybe one, that I might have defected sooner that I did.

"From Faith And Hope Into Love"
August 21, 2016

[www.garyandmarilynhargrave.com]

"Eye has not seen nor ear heard what God has prepared for those who love Him, and now (NOW!?) is the time for us to fulfill the great commandment: to love the Lord (and the least of these)."

(The preceding quote clearly explains the misguided priorites, the lack of any vision, and the unfortunate casuality list accrued over the decades. Better now than never.)

Yes
To those of you that have spent 30+ years in the fellowship supposedly giving your all--now is the time for you to demonstrate your love for God. What have you been waiting for?

"The Power Of Our Words"
August 21, 2016

[www.churchofthelivingword.com]

"Our words can . . . sting, cause pain, or tear things down." (Ya think?)

". . . we must learn to separate our vile speech from God's precious word within us." (Like quit being hypocritical?)

"We cannot come to church and speak the Word . . . and leave and tear it all down with negative words." (As in walking the talk?)

"Almost all our defeats come by thinking negatively, and then giving those thoughts substance by voicing them." (We actually do create the world we believe in.)

"If we could stop speaking negatively and control our tongues, what could happen?" (Maybe something positive for a change?)

"Determine that everything we speak will be a creative force . . ." (It already has been, even behind closed doors, and with devastating effects for many.)

Interesting--but here's a different take:

Matthew 18:3:
“Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven."

One example of being a child :
When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, no one dares to say that they don't see any suit of clothes until a child cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!"
(The Emperors New Clothes)

Luke 8:17
For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.

"Prepare Yourself For The New Wine Of The Kingdom"
August 21, 2016

[www.churchofthelivingwordniteroi.org]

". . . the new wine of the Kingdom: a personal relationship with the Father." (A groundbreaking revelation after more than half a century.)

"Are we ready to receive the new wine?" (Is it better than the old stuff?)

"We repent for being satisfied with the fulfillment of promises (we had fulfillment?) without the presence of the Father." (And we know why that is.)

"Our repentance prepares us to receive the new wine." (Once we sober up from the old.)
