God's Judgment Begins In His Household

For the time [has arrived] for JUDGMENT

To begin with the Household of God;

And if it begins with us, what will [be] the END of those

Who do not RESPECT or BELIEVE or OBEY The Good News

(The Gospel) of God?

And if the righteous are BARLEY SAVED,

What will become of the godless and wicked? [Prov. 11:31]

Therefore, those who are ill treated

And suffer in accordance with God's will must do RIGHT,

And COMMIT their souls (in charge as a deposit)

To the One Who created them and will NEVER FAIL [them]. (1 Peter 4:17-19)

What is this “TIME” the apostle Peter speaks of here?

It is the Last Two Days of TIME, the Last Two Thousand Years of “TIME,”

Up to and including TODAY;

So that TODAY God's Judgment will begin in His Household.

This REALITY is amply described in Christ Jesus' Seven Letters

To the Seven Churches in the Book of Revelation.

What is Christ Jesus message in these Seven Letters?

That only complete devotion to Him and Love of Him will be accepted.

Even as He gave ALL, so those who belong to Him will give ALL,

Or they will have NOTHING.

This is NOT the message that is being put forth in Christianity TODAY.

Today, the primary message is a message to TICKLE the itching ears

Of those who are listening.

Few are willing to speak of the JUDGEMENT of God,

Which in fact is an INTEGRAL part of the Gospel.

Why is this? Because it brings a large crowd.

IGNORANCE is bliss for a while. Listen to Peter again:

So since Christ suffered in the flesh [for us, for you],

Arm yourselves with the same thought and purpose

[Patiently to suffer rather than fail to please God].

For whoever has suffered in the flesh [having the mind of Christ]

Has done with [intention] SIN--

Has stopped pleasing himself and the World, and pleases God.

So he can no longer spend the rest of his natural life

Living by [his] human APPETITES and desires,

But [he lives] for what God wills.

For the time that is past

Already suffices for doing what the Gentiles like to do,

Living (as you have done) in shameless, insolent wantonness,

In lustful desires, drunkenness, reveling, drinking bouts

And ABOMINABLE, lawless IDOLATRIES.

They are ASTONISHED and think it very queer

That you do not now run hand in hand with them

In the same excesses of dissipation, and they abuse [you].

But they will have to give an account to Him Who is ready to JUDGE

And PASS SENTENCE on the living and the dead.

For this is why the Good News (the Gospel) was preached

[In their lifetime] even to the dead,

That though judged in fleshly bodies as men are,

They might live in the Spirit as God does.

But the END and CULMINATION of ALL THINGS has now come NEAR;

Keep sound minded and self-restrained and alert

therefore for [the practice of] prayer.

Above all things have INTENSE and UNFAILING Love for one another,

For Love covers a multitude of SINS--

Forgives and disregards the offenses of others. [Prov. 10:12.]

Practice hospitality to one another--

That is, those of the household of Faith.

(Be hospitable, that is, be a lover of strangers, with brotherly affection

For the unknown guests, the foreigners, the poor and all others

Who come your way who are of Christ's Body.)

And [in each instance] do it ungrudgingly—cordially and graciously

Without complaining [but as representing Him].

As each of you has received a GIFT (in a particular spiritual talent,

A gracious Divine Endowment),

Employ it for one another as [befits] good trustees

Of God's many-sided grace—faithful stewards

Of the Extremely Diverse [Powers and Gifts granted to Christians by]

Unmerited Favor.

Whoever speaks, [let him do it as one who utters] oracles of God;

Whoever renders service, [let him do it]

As with the strength which God furnishes;

So that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, the Messiah.

To Him be the Glory and Dominion for ever and ever--

Through endless ages. Amen—so be it.

Beloved, do not be amazed and bewildered at the Fiery Ordeal

Which is taking place to TEST your quality,

As though something strange—unusual and alien to you and your position--

Were befalling you.

But in so far as you are sharing Christ's SUFFERINGS,

Rejoice, so that when His Glory (full of Radiance and Splendor)

Is revealed you may also rejoice with Triumph—Exultantly.

If you are CENSURED and SUFFER abuse

[Because you bear] the Name of Christ, BLESSED [are you]--

Happy, fortunate, to be envied, with life-joy and satisfaction

In God's Favor and Salvation, regardless of your outward condition--

Because the Spirit of Glory, the Spirit of God, is resting upon you.

On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is Glorified. [Isa. 11:2]

But if [one is ill-treated and suffers] as a Christian

[Which he is contemptuously called], let him not be ashamed,

But give Glory to God that he is [deemed worthy] to SUFFER for this Name.

For the time [has arrived] for JUDGMENT

To begin with the Household of God;

And if it begins with us, what will [be] the END of those

Who do not RESPECT or BELEIVE or OBEY The Good News

(The Gospel) of God?

And if the righteous are BARLEY SAVED,

What will become of the godless and wicked? [Prov. 11:31]

Therefore, those who are ill treated

And suffer in accordance with God's will must do RIGHT,

And COMMIT their souls (in charge as a deposit)

To the One Who created them and will NEVER FAIL [them]. (1 Peter 4:1-19)

Today, in America being a Christian has become CONTEMPTUOUS.

This CONTEMPT will be ever increasing as we move forward;

As America becomes more and more godless;

As we approach the FALL of America;

As we approach the day the “savior” of the godless World is REVEALED;
Satan's son, the Antichrist.

I pray that those who read this message are among those

Who are willing to be CENSURED and ABUSED for the Name of Christ

And will count it a blessing that you are found worthy to do so.

The apostle Paul address this issue:

I consider our present sufferings are not worthy comparing

With the Glory that will be revealed in us. (Romans 8:18)

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!
