To Love Christ Is To Forsake The World

To Love Christ Jesus is to forsake the world.

The world and Christ Jesus are diametrically opposed to each other.

The world is the enemy of Christ Jesus:

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world

Is hatred toward God. (James 4:4)

Do not love the world or anything in the world.

If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

For everything in the world--The cravings of sinful man,

The lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does--

Comes not from the Father but from the world.

The world and its desires pass away,

But the man who does the will of God lives FOREVER.

The world is ruled by the archenemy of Christ Jesus, Satan.

Satan lead Adam and Eve into SIN,

Just as he leads the whole world into SIN.

The world has been deceived into eating the forbidden fruit,

The fruit of The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Because of this the world stands hopeless, helpless and condemned.

Before the Living God.

The whole world apart from Faith in Christ Jesus is on its way to Hell.

Only those who believe and receive Christ Jesus avoid this destination.

Ironically this overriding reality of this natural life is seldom spoken of.

As it is written:

There is no one righteous, not even one;

There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.

Al have turned away, they have together become worthless;

There is no one who does good, not even one.

Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.

The poison of vipers is on their lips.

Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.

Their feet are swift to shed blood; ruin and misery mark their ways,

And the way of peace they do not know.

There is no fear of God before their eyes. (Romans 3:10), (Psalm 36)

The Scripture above aptly describes the condition of the world.

The only thing that changes this condition for any one of us is Faith in Christ.

This is the world Christ Jesus came to;

To save ALL who would put their Faith, Hope and Trust in Him.

He has done this in every generation.

In every generation there have been the few who found the NARROW WAY;

The only Way, the only Truth and the only LIFE.

ALL else is Eternal Death.

The world hates Christ Jesus,

And if you follow Christ Jesus the world will hate you:

'If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.

If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own.

As it is, you do not belong to the world,

But I have chosen you out of the world.

That is why the world hates you.

Remember the words I spoke to you:

No servant is above his master.

If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you also.

If they obeyed My teaching, they will obey yours also.

They will treat you this way because of My Name,

For they do not know the One [the Father] Who sent Me.

If I had not come and spoken to them,

They would not be guilty of SIN.

Now, however, they have no excuse for their SIN.

He who hates Me hates My Father as well.

If I had not done among them what no one else did,

They would not be guilty of SIN.

But now they have seen these miracles,

And yet they have hated both Me and My Father.

But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law:

'They hated Me without reason.' (John 15:18-25)

Who will love Christ Jesus under the intense PERSECUTION

That is coming?

This will be the great crucible of truth in the days to come

As the wickedness of the world increases to the boiling point,

And there is no place to hide.

The world and the religious community that persecuted Christ Jesus,

Will be the same world and religious community that will persecute you.

This is the same PERSECUTION that has been manifested in every generation.

There is nothing new under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9)

Are you willing to forsake the world for Christ Jesus?

Will you stand in the days to come under the PERSECUTION

That is already underway.

It can be seen everywhere, throughout the world, if you have eyes to see.

This hatred toward Christ Jesus and those who belong to Him will intensify

As the world experiences complete spiritual and economic failure.

Someone will have to be blamed and it will be those who belong to Christ,

Just as it was the Jews in the days of Hitler.

If you belong to Christ Jesus you are the smell of death to the world.

(2 Corinthians 2:16)

Do you realize the the greatest Holocaust the world has seen

Lies directly ahead?

When the Antichrist begins killing those

Who will not receive his “mark” or worship him.

Everything going on in the world today is toward that END,

Under the deception of Satan.

Every nation is deceived; Every world leader.

The world will have the One World Government they seek, for a MOMENT.

And then they will realize they are in God's Great Tribulation.

And the kingdom of this world will be brought to complete RUIN.

I pray that all who read this message are among the few

Who have fond the NARROW Way, the Way of Christ Jesus;

Who will be rescued by Him at His second coming.

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
