1 Cor 2:9 But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and
ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, [all that] God has
prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him [[e]who hold Him in
affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the
benefits He has bestowed].
What a wonderful scripture too often and quite tragically quoted alone. The cause for celebration
revealed in the following verse is strangely by-passed. Let’s look at it please.....
10Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and throu...gh His Spirit, for the [Holy]
Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound
and bottomless things of God [the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's
scrutiny].
"God has revealed" to who? US? So I suppose the next question is "who is us"? Good question.
Thank you for asking. The next verse plainly gives the explanation....
11For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man's thoughts
except the man's own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and
comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
12Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but the [Holy] Spirit, Who is
from God, [given to us] that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of
divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.
So, in order to fully comprehend what God has revealed and has planned for those who love
Him, we see that the very Holy Spirit of God must be tabernacled within the person whom it has
been revealed. Otherwise, whatever they proclaim, is pure imagination and without impact of
power and anointing. So now we are brought to another question. "Who does God impart His
Holy Spirit too?" I'm so glad you asked. The Word clearly tells us.....
Acts 5:32 And we are witnesses of these things, and the Holy Spirit is also, Whom God has
bestowed on those who obey Him.
There it is, plain as day. So then those who "claim" to be filled with the Holy Spirit yet
admittedly walk in transgression of God's commandment could not possibly be what they claim
to be, and are therefore liars. If they will not submit to the clear word of God, if they will not be
subject to the truth of what is written above, HAVE NO FELLOWSHIP WITH THEM. You
can't quote vs's 11 and 12 above because God's revelation is not in you! Small wonder folks
commonly only quote vs 10. They are mystified becuase they have no Holy Spirit within them,
no matter what they claim to be.
For what God has prepared, is prepared for those who love Him." So what is the absolutely clear
Biblical FACT and PROOF that a person loves God?" Another great question, and again the
Holy Word of God makes no secret of the matter. Here it is, plain and simple, cut and dried, easy
to understand.....
John 14:15 If you [really] love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands.
There it is, plain as day. Again, if a person says they are a Christian, filled with the Holy Spirit
and admittedly say they sin (willfully transgress God's 10 commandments, one or a combination
of them) on a daily basis. That person is a liar. The truth is not in him/her. He has no clue what
God has prepared for those who love Him, because by the Word of God and the word of his/her
testimony, they do not love God because they will not obey Him.
The reason they will not obey Him is because they have never obeyed Him and repented. I don't
mean saying "I'm sorry" about this and that. I mean ending all sin in your life. Acts 2:38 says
first we must repent, then be immersed, then we receive the Holy Spirit.
Repent is the Cross. No Cross, no hope. Your confession of loving God and being filled with the
Holy Spirit falls apart in light of the testimony of God's Word. Your old sin nature is still alive
and kickin. You may look and act like Mr. Goodbody on the outside, but on the inside you know,
I know, and God knows you're like a tomb, full of flesh that is rotten to the core. Repent means
turn away from ALL sin, or you are wasting your time, and you are a walking talking liar. Jesus
blood does not wash away most sin. It washes away all sin. So if you have been cleansed from
all unrighteousness, how is it you sin every day? All unrighteousness is sin. That's what the Bible
says. If you say you are a Christian, when the Word of God clearly declares that you are NOT,
you are a blasphemer and a horrible witness to would believers, for your by your witness
proclaim a Christian has as much sin in their life as a non-Christian. Oh you may not murder, or
rob banks, or sleep with your neighbor's wife or husband, at least not in public. But in your mind
you do. In fact, you probably spend more time thinking about those things, than what God says.
The only real difference in your lifestyle from the unsaved person across the street is that you
don't drink or smoke (in public anyway) and you go to church on Sunday. Well, la ti dah! That
may fly in today's "so called church". But it won't fit into the Body of Christ. He cannot accept
that. Worse, your greatest sin is the testimony of how ungodly you really live, and yet call
yourself a Christian. You dress like the world, style your hair like the world, talk like the world,
laugh at what the world thinks is funny but God does not.
Please understand, I'm not taking you through this to condemn you, I'm trying to help you look
into the mirror of God's Word. If your claim to purity does not line up with the Word of God,
then you are deceieved. I know you may have been believing the way you do for a very long
time. But just because you believe a lie long enough that will not make it a reality. Than will not
reconcile you to God!!! YOU MUST REPENT.......or you will surely perish. YOU MUST
REPENT......100%.....or you will PERISH!!!! LOST FOREVER!!!!
Is the darling sin in your life worth burning in hell forever for? IS IT??? My Lord, can't you see
that sin is the MOST EXPENSIVE THING THERE IS? SIN COSTS YOU ETERNAL LIFE!!!!!
13And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by
the [Holy] Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language [to those
who possess the Holy Spirit].
These truths should be ...quite evident already to those who are Spirit filled, those who are dead
to sin and alive unto God. Oh the sorrow of my soul to know that there is no doubt, there are
those reading this who have not fully repented, and therefore have no Holy Spirit within. Those
who obey God can humbly and so very greatfully say, Thank You Lord. They also greive deep
inside, as I do, for those who have been brainwashed into believing a lie, and now find
themselves sickened inside, not by what I say, but by the wisdom taught by the Holy Spirit.
Beloved, it's not too late. Run to God. RUN TO GOD!!! Right now, RUN TO GOD!!!! You'll
find Him waiting.....at the cross, waiting to receive your living sacrifice of your COMPLETE
SELF, and to immerse you into Jesus' death, so you can be resurrected into the newness of His
life. He simply cannot and will not do more, until this foundation is secure. For it alone is the
foundation of building His tabernacle in your heart and life. No death to self, no life of God in
you. That's what the Bible teaches. That's what must be obeyed. Will you? Will you give up sin's
dominion over you? Or will your own lying testimony condemn you forever and ever into the
unquenchable fire? Your agony will never cease. And every micro moment, you'll be faced with
the living reality that you could have had eternal life and bliss with God, if only you had obeyed
God. You can't say you didn't know any longer. For God has sent you yet another witness today,
to cry out to you in agony of soul. STOP!!!! REPENT!!!! or PERISH!!!!
Now understand, what is written above is not intended for the "unchurched". It is intended for
those who are regular members of the "so called church". Members (like a social club, part time
participants), deacons, elders, Pastors, Apostles, Prophets, (all so called). This is for you!!! For
not everyone who says Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of God, but he/she that DOETH
THE WILL OF THE FATHER". SIN IS NOT GOD'S WILL FOR YOU!!! IT'S NOT HIS
GOOD PLEASURE!!!! WAKE UP!!!!!!!
REPENT!!!! OR PERISH!!!! What else can I say?????? I love you. WAKE UP!!!! God does not
desire that you would perish. But if you continue to proclaim you are a Christian and yet sin is
anchored in your soul, God will have no choice but to purge YOU from His creation that He
created morally pure. You are dirt that must be expunged. He won't hesitate to cast your soul into
HELL!!!! PLEASE, please, please, listen to what the Spirit of the Lord is speaking to your heart
right now. You must REPENT, and you must OBEY GOD!!!! or you will surely PERISH!!! -
