We’ve all heard the expression many times, “The devil is in the details” When, in fact, that is the complete opposite God Almighty is the One Who is in the details Matthew 5:18 “For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled ” Every aspect of God’s Old Testament law was very precise and detail oriented God’s standard in the New Testament is very detailed and exact The primary difference is that the Holy Ghost is given and the obedience must be by faith; not religion Hebrews 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please him:..." But Jesus did warn us that THE way is strait AND narrow
There is no such thing as “modern day” Christianity God’s standard has not nor will it ever change; period There is another old saying, “Loose lips sinks ships” Here’s a new one for you, “Loose living sinks souls” One major problem today though is all these carnal minded preachers who preach and teach that God’s grace is somehow equivalent to a license to live however you want and still go to heaven

Not so ever shall it be my friend The devil loves for God’s people to think it’s easy to get into heaven That God would never hurt them because He is love God’s love is greater than any man‐made love but markedly different from what is being taught in churches all over the world; especially America. One very gross doctrine being perpetrated is that salvation is free Once again, very heinous lie The sin debt Jesus paid for you is the free gift But if you want to live forever in paradise with Him, there is nothing free about that You are going to have to learn how to live in obedience to His Word. And it is your responsibility to seek out a preacher of the truth and immerse yourself in His Word to learn how to do that There are still, and always will be as long as the world stands, preachers of righteousness in the world I am humbled God chose me to be one of them It’s redundant to day but God’s true preachers are guides to help you understand the
spiritual revelation of His Word and to help you enter into the kingdom of heaven
If you could do it without a preacher, God would not have ordained preachers LOL. I’m amazed how many Christians don’t fear what Jesus warned us about Which is “few” there be that are saved. One simple sign I see that so many Christians don’t fear the Lord is how they run around making plans all the time without hardly any of them ever saying, “Lord will”! Which is why the Lord has impressed me in the last couple of months strongly to warn any of you who will listen to make your calling and election sure Not by any man’s opinion or even your own self assumption But by diligent prayer and making sure God confirms it to you This may sound harsh but I personally am not affected by whether you choose heaven or hell That is your prerogative It hurts, obviously, if you reject the Lord and I know you But, in the end, it is your choice God doesn’t send anyone
God doesn’t send anyone to Hell. They do it to themselves when they reject His plan of salvation that He gave His life for on that cross What will you choose?
Proverbs 24:18
Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
Matthew 10:28
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
1Peter 5:8
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Proverbs 15:10
Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die
Is He?
Is God in your every day thoughts? Is He the first thing on your mind when you wake up in the morning? Is He in your thought process throughout the day; every day? Are you constantly thinking about and seeking ways to please Him? Do you talk to Him throughout the day? It’s redundant but worth mentioning countless times but if God is not first in your life, He’s not in it at all
A few things for you to consider. First of all, my entire purpose for publishing this newspaper is to help you To help you stay strong in the faith that is in Christ Jesus To help you to be obedient to the faith which was once delivered to the saints To write only what I feel led of the Lord to write to help you. This is spiritual warfare and if you aren’t being attacked constantly, you are backslid Psalm 34:19 “MANY are the
afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them ALL ” Affliction: 1 a cause of persistent pain or distress 2 great suffering Remember, I don’t know you If you feel like I’m pointing a finger at you, you are completely mistaken That is the conviction of the Lord God only convicts for wrong doing He convicts you in order for you to repent. Not to condemn you.
One of the simplest tests to prove if you are a true Christian or a backslid one is to answer the question for yourself Is God first in my life? Do I wake up thanking Him for a new day and the opportunity to be an effective witness unto Him? Do I pray every day and read my bible and praise Him for all His blessings and benefits? Do I seek out opportunities to share with others what He means to me and what He has done for me? Do I make His deeds known among the heathen
that they might be saved? Do I strive to live a life that is separate from worldly, sinful vices in order to please Him? Not for religion’s sake but that I might inspire a lost soul to ask me why I don’t partake in the things that keep them in bondage. The simple fact is we talk about what we love most and strive to give the most attention to what we love most We invest in what we love most Is Jesus what you talk about and invest in the most? If not, no condemnation at all. Simply repent and pray and ask Him to help you get right with Him
Matthew 6:33
But seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. The "kingdom of God" here is in reference to the work of the Lord Meaning what God has ordained for you to do to help in His work
Do you understand the very extreme importance of a true preacher actually sent by God? I mean a preacher who has received the real Holy Ghost, been ordained and trained up in a ministry which God has confirmed His Word in with signs, miracles and wonders. A preacher who is persecuted and attacked at every turn no matter what direction they go in A preacher, like Noah, who preaches the truth even if the whole world stands against them
Anyone can preach In fact, one of the easiest vocations in the world for anyone to pretend they are is a preacher The scariest thing in the world though is to pretend to be a preacher sent by God when one is actually not! Hebrews 10:31 “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” What is even more fearful is when God lets those same preachers continue to preach unchecked, trying to make a name for themselves, until He flips the judgment switch One of the most stern and boldest warnings Jesus ever gave was against the scribes and Pharisees in Matthew chapter 23 Because of the gross volume of false preachers, most Christians have no idea of the difference between the true and the false What should concern you very strongly is do YOU know the difference?! Your eternity vastly depends on it In many issues of Heartbeat Christian News, I have strived to teach you how immensely important it is
for you to understand how the understanding of the word of God actually comes to you. The very first step is you must receive the true Holy Ghost That is the foundation Why do I say “true” Holy Ghost? Because there is a very strong false anointing in the land and many who think they have received Him have not!
2Thessalonians 2:9 “Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,” Did the apostles and disciples who went into the upper room receive the Holy Ghost easy? No they did not It wasn’t easy for me And no one I have ever known who received Him ever did so easily In order to receive the Holy Ghost according to the bible standard, you have to forsake all for a time in your life and seek God diligently in prayer until He comes and fills you. Just like they did prior to the day of Pentecost
Once you have received the Holy Ghost, then you must hear the word of God rightly divided by a preacher sent by God The Holy Ghost opens your understanding and God’s preachers properly break the bread from heaven Which is why Jesus instructed Peter to feed His sheep Sheep cannot feed themselves It’s been a long time since I have mentioned it but listen If anyone could pick up a bible and read it and understand it spiritually, there would be no need for preachers at all No one should go to church out of tradition They shouldn’t
go just because they like the preacher The ultimate and right reason for going to church is to hear a preacher sent by God rightly divide the word of God to feed your soul Which helps protect you from the wiles of the devil. The other reason and equally important is to praise and worship God Make your calling and election sure!
Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves
1Corinthians 1:21
“For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe ”
Jeremiah 23:1‐2
WOE be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD. Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.
Verses 10‐11
For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD
