According to the grace of God which is given unto me,
as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth
thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
Christ is the foundation of all creation, and the Chief Cornerstone. Every
stone that is laid in a foundation must line up with the chief cornerstone in
order to be effective. Those that do not are removed and replaced with others
that will. The restoration of ones soul depends entirely on receiving the
engrafted, incorruptible Word of God and lining ones thoughts up with the Chief
Corner Stone. Thereby we become living stones, as it is written. We shall be
known and read by all men.Saturday, July 7, 2012

Salvation and Strength
Daniel 2:44
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven
set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be
left to other people, but it shall break
in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
What the Lord GOD purposed through Jesus on the cross will soon be
consummated for all mankind. Salvation AND strength. The kingdom of our God AND
the power of His anointing (Christ). The power of His anointing will restore
all things to His plan and purpose, and purge humanity and the earth of all
separation and rebellion. The accuser of the brethren will first be cast out of
heaven into the earth, and thereafter cast into the lake of fire forever. The kingdom
of heaven will remain, and all who enter in will glorify God. Jesus is the door.
He alone is the entrance into the kingdom of heaven.

Refuge in the Rock
Isaiah 16:3
Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the
night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that
wandereth.
Before Christ returns to rescue His people Israel from what will seem
like certain destruction, they will again be divided, and a portion of them
will take refuge in the rock city of Petra. Yet in truth, their refuge will be
in the Rock Himself, as He delivers them once and for all from the hands of
those who would destroy them. The kingdom of God is come nigh unto the earth,
and the increase of His government will know no boundaries. The knowledge of
the glory of the Lord will cover the earth, as the waters cover the seas.

Christ, The True Vine
John 15:5
I am the vine, ye are
the branches: He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much
fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing.
The new age concept of American liberty does not abide in the Vine.
The perfect law of liberty is only found in Christ, and He said of Himself that
he can do nothing without the Father. Likewise, we can do nothing without Him.
No person, group, or nation can stand in works built outside of God. Those
works are built on sinking sand and will collapse. Let this “Independence Day”
be signified by a rededication to dependence on the LORD, in Jesus’ name!
Without Him, no one can do anything that will last.

Abide In the True Vine
John 15:4
Abide in Me, and I in you.
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more
can ye, except ye abide in Me.
Jesus makes it very clear with this statement: He is the source of
life. If you snap a branch from a tree, it has absolutely no chance of
survival. It withers up, dries out, and is only useful to be burned at that
point. We must abide in Him, or be fuel for the fire. We must remain in Him,
just as surely as He must remain in the Father. He is the way, the truth, and
the life, and anything we ever hope to accomplish is contained within Him and
Him alone. All creation is contained within Him, and all creation ultimately
must glorify Him.

God Will Separate His Harvest
Matthew 13:30
Let both grow together
until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather
ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather
the wheat into my barn.
There are moral absolutes, and there is a process by which God will
separate His people. As the harvest approaches, so does the time of separation.
That which glorifies God will be gathered and stored within His eternal temple:
the New Jerusalem come from heaven to earth. That which does not will be
gathered and burned. The earth and all the works therein, having been purged by
fire, will glorify Him in purity and truth. The revelation of the Son will
consummate the restitution and subjection of all things.

God’s Promise: Restitution of Peace
Revelation 21:4
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and
there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there
be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
This is the promise of the Father, first for the individual upon
spiritual rebirth, and then for all mankind upon the restitution of all things.
However, He has placed His government upon the shoulder of the Prince of Peace,
and He is not a dictator like the kings of this world, nor is He a liberal
humanist like new age democracies. He is not politically correct or selfishly
motivated, He is the blessed and only True Authority. When we choose Him, we
receive the promise. Whoever rejects Him rejects the promise. Let God be true,
and every man a liar.
