Microwave Preaching bring forth, Microwave Churches and Christians

For there isn't any other foundation save for the one that is been built by the rock of Salvation, by the cornerstone, our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good. (1Peter 2:1-3)
I was listening to a preacher recently, a preacher who says he prefer to call himself a motivational speaker,
I am just going to let it out of my chest,
It is sad to see how our few Christian television channels have been invaded by self appointed apostles and prosperity moguls who blatantly push their deceptive speeches about a Jesus who does not come from the Bible.
The trend has been around for a while now, but as it gains momentum, new styles and new doctrines continue to be developed to attract the naive and the desperate, who is looking for a carnal solution to their spiritual problems.
And a new wave of false prophets has just been started by a North American "Pastor" who even prefers to be called a motivational speaker; thus bringing further deception into the pews. And the trend has already caught up in Latin America, where already a few are following the same practice.
You hear them speaking and it sounds so real that anybody would buy it. Their way of sugar coating Jesus is so sweet that it would easily deceive even the elect
They manufacture a doctrine at the drop of a hat, and speak of a Jesus who sounds real to those who do not test their message by the word.
It saddens me even more to see how people run hysterically after these messengers of Satan, many of which are so enthrone in their own kingdom that they do not even realize they have already condemned themselves and their followers to the fire of hell
Thousands upon thousands of believers are following these deceptive trends, and are being sold a Christ, who offers them riches, and longevity, and glory, and absence of pain and suffering. They are being offered a Hollywood Christ who is going to make their lives perfect on this earth, who is going to solve all their problems, pay all their bills, take away all their illnesses, and bring love and peace and enlightenment to their self centered lives. Their blindness condemns them as it condemns those cheap merchants of lies and deception.
This Christ those prestidigitators are trying to sell does not exist; it is an illusion, a magic trick straight from Hell.
The Christ of the Bible does not offer Microwave Christianity; He does not cater to the ego centered, quick-fix driven motives of the worldly man. Those followers of drive through salvation are lost and in need to be found; and the preachers of Satan who are catering to them belong in the eternal furnace of Hell.
The sissy effeminate, manicured Christ of pop culture, is just an invention of the spiritually lame and the lost, and of those who seek to cash in on the ignorance of the masses and their lust for security without commitment. This Frozen food Christ does not exist.
The Christ I know, the King of Kings, the Prince of Peace, the redeemer, is the same Christ presented to us throughout the whole Bible, the one who fulfilled all Old Testament prophesies. He is the alpha and the Omega, the Morning Star, the Word made flesh. And He gives us in His word a way of life that is beyond any dream, and which brings us to true enlightenment, and the true knowledge of God.
There is no magic wand or secret spell, there is no healing potion or blessed clothe, there is only Jesus, the Jesus of the Cross, the Jesus of Calvary, the Jesus who tell us to take our Cross and follow Him, the Jesus who tells us that we will be persecuted the way he was persecuted, the Jesus who tells us to sell everything and follow Him, the Jesus who tells us that no liars or immoral or selfish persons or Idolaters will enter the Kingdom of heaven,
That is the Jesus I know
The Jesus I know teaches us to be His servants, to be the least so that we can become the greatest, He teaches us to love our neighbors more than we love ourselves, he teaches us to have extreme compassion for the sick and the lame, and the hungry, and to be a witness of His word to the lost.
The Jesus I know calls us to conform to his commandments, and his commandments are thick with self sacrifice and sanctity.
Do not conform any longer to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you will know what the will of the father is, His good and perfect will. (Romans 12...)
The Jesus I know is offering us spiritual victory, spiritual peace, spiritual riches, spiritual health, and most importantly, spiritual blitz and life eternal.
But all of this comes at a price, it is a free gift which we have to earn, by living a life of abandonment, a life of committed devotion, a life of prayerful meditation and study of his word, a life where the fruit of the spirit become a way of life, become second nature.
If you want a secret formula, here is one... Be reconciled to God, by abandoning your wicked ways, and embracing the Jesus of the Bible, Pure and simply.
As for those merchants from Hell; let them go where they belong, their due judgment will come, and unless they repent and change their ways, their father the devil will have a feast with them. In which they will be the menu!

With God all went well

Hello again friends, its me again the local Internet menace lol, I hope I'm not known as that. But again I have to give God the glory due Him this day. God gave us the opportunity once more to preach His word. It was great being in God's house once again and being under the annointing, it was glorious. After the shaking calmed down some, having not preaching for almost 9 years, the Holy Spirit did what He does best, Preach, again I have to say Glory to God in the highest.

God gave us the message to preach, "Let us enter his gates". Our text came from Psalms 100:4, let us enter His gates with thanksgiving in our hearts, enter His courts with praise, again I have to say God was and still is awesome. To some preachers, preaching to 45 people isn't such a big thing, but this little church used to have if I heard right close to one hundred and fifty members, then you know how it goes, like any other organization satan slips in and divides and destroys. its been a while since that has happened but only by the grace and mercy of God will this little Church heal and begin to grow again. 45 people ain't all bad in the world we live in today.

God let us begin our message in the book of Ezekiel 37:1-10. where God lead Ezekiel into a valley of dry bones, and in the spirit God shows him heaps of bones. God commanded Ezekiel to prophecy over the bones and as he did so God caused the bones to come to life, oh yes an exceedingly great army. Friends we are living in a time when not only is this world in trouble, but the Church world as we know it is in greater trouble. Jesus talked about a great falling away of the saints in the last days. We've been preached for over 200 years that we are living in the last days, and we would have to say that it is somewhat right, because there were and still are prophesies being fulfilled today. I believe today more than ever from the studying of Gods word and research of Biblical history, Bible scholars, and ancient world history, that the Church world has been deceived into thinking that a secret Rapture will occur, and that people have lost all hope in faith not only in Christianity, but God and His Son Jesus Christ.


I realize that the rapture means { caught away or called up } but where are you going to? heaven ( God forbid ) Friends the only time your going to go to heaven is if you were to die and go to the grave, and your spirit goes back to the Father. Jesus said no man has ascended to heaven to the Father except the one who came from the Father, the Son. Friends, Brothers and Sisters, I glory not in myself, that I preach and tell you the truth and the whole truth but God will require your blood on my hands if i don't tell you the truth. I'm trying to make it onto the 1000 year reign with Christ Jesus and take as many as we can by the Grace of God, on which the second death hath no power. I do not count myself to be a doom and gloom Preacher, God is just, fair, full of mercies upon all that will listen and hear what the spirit says.

There are so many misguided souls out there and my heart and soul cries out for them, My prayer would be and is, that people would once again turn back to God and seek his true word. not something men thought up back in 1824 and was never preached by Jesus or the Apostles. Friends, No where in the Bible (being the only true word of God we have to live by, which has never changed), does Jesus say He was going to rapture his people or church out of here before the great tribulation happens. People tend to preach and teach that even though Jesus himself said I will come as a thief, but He did not mean to mislead Christians he came to save them.

Jesus was only saying to His children TO WATCH AND BE AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING ON, THAT IT DOESN'T COME UPON UNAWARE, AS A THIEF coming in while no one is watching so will He return. Jesus used two great examples of how the world would be and what shape it would be in when he returned, As the days of Noah were before the flood Matthew 24; 37-39 But as the days of Noah was before the flood, so shall the coming of the Son be, [ 38 ] FOR IN THAT DAY BEFORE THE FLOOD THEY WERE EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING, AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE,until the day noah entered the ark. [ 39 ] and knew not until the flood came and took it all away, so shall the coming of the Son of man be. we didn't give every verse disputing the theory, But we can.

If anyone can go into the word of God and show me where the theory of the Rapture is and pinpoint the sure word of the theory, I'll eat my Bible, it may take awhile because there's alot of food to eat in the Word of God. I'll even go as far as to say this, I'll put my Bible up against your man's theory and Gods words will never fail. We sorta got off our subject that we preached last night, but the Spirit of God that is within seems to get upset about millions of people being lead astray and mislead. And please dont take my word for it, and don't bother asking your pastor, ask the one who will never lie to you -ask God the Father to reveal the truth to you before its to late, Pleaseeeeeeee I do beg this of you friends,



But as we said we preached last night, on Let us enter his gates with thanksgiving in our hearts, friends, we need Jesus truly more now than ever. Friends, Brothers and Sisters. we need to go to the house were we can worship God in total fullness, with our whole hearts. we need to give him glory and praise ever day of the rest of our lives, before it's to late. so please consider the house of God that He places on your heart, and let the Holy Spirit move you in the worship of the Most High God. Serving God is only a small part of what we can do in return to Him who gave His Only Begotten Son, on a cross on Calvary.


well hope this make sense and will stir your hearts, not only to seek God's true Word, but also return back to Him while we may still find Him, and once you find Him, worship Him in praise and honour



TIL NEXT TIME may God bless you

Living the gifts of of the spirit

I often sit back and watch people and being a Preacher at one time, God entrusted me with that gift of discernment, which is 1 of the gifts of the spirit spoke about in the book of 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 and it says- [4] Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which work all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 But all these work that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

As a Christian you can have any of the gifts you seek GOD for, but I really don't think we are bestowed with all. Some will have the gift of healing, prophesy, laying on of hands, praying, preaching, teaching, tongues and tongue and interpretation, and then the gift of the discernment. It is my belief that the Ministers and preachers have the gift of the spirit of discernment to discern the spirits, and I guess even though I no longer Preach I still have the gift.When we met our second wife she worked with a lot of different people, and not only they but other people as well I began to tell her what kind of people they were and she couldn't see it until the things I told started coming to pass, No I am NOT Nostradamus, and I can't see or foretell the future. All I can tell about is what the spirit of GOD has showed me.

Being able to discern things in the spirit is needed to be able to keep the enemy at bay and on the run. It is one of the tools GOD bestows on His people as well as Preachers. A lot of people would think that it would be judging folk i's not, being able to discern thing makes one aware of what is going on not only in the congregation of the saints, ( Church), but the world around you. But to me it is not the gift of discernment that is the greatest, being able to lead people to Christ and they find Him as their Lord and Savior, being able to pray for the lost and GOD opening His window in Heaven and pouring out His soul convicting spirit that leads people to Christ, then its being able to teach those the word of GOD, (teaching) then feeding the people with the preaching to keep their souls nourished with not only the milk but also the meat of the word. Living in the spirit.

I believe that the gifts are to help edify the Church. Friends, there is nothing like the feeling of being able to lay hands on the sick. and the healing virtue of God, ( THE ANOINTING), begins to transmit through your body into theirs and they be healed. It is a feeling that can't be described by me. There is nothing like being a Christian in the will of GOD and he uses you for the will of the Church. I do believe that the scariest gift of all is the tongues and interpretation. Or maybe I shouldn't use the word scariest. The gift of tongues and interpretation is for the edifying of the Church in most cases. Through tongues and interpretation it can be to the Church and what GOD intends to do in its future, or it could be for someone who has been searching GOD for answers to things, or GOD speaking to an individual person. And at anytime when there is an interpretation, somehow GOD will give some type of witness, such as moving of the spirit, chill's running all over your body. Friends, when the Spirit of GOD begins to move, the devil runs. That's called living in the spirit.

A lot of people think that the Pentecostal Churches and some Full gospel churches are nuts. Some would say that dancing in the spirit, speaking in tongues are not biblical but think again even divine healing and the laying on of hands are also biblical. Its just the snake part that I don't see where they come up with. I think they who play with snakes are tempting the Lord by saying ok Lord we're going to play with these posionous snakes, now keep us safe. That is plum crazy, Jesus said while in the wilderness the 40 days and nights as satan tempted him, Jesus said, THOU SHALL NOT TEMPT THE LORD THY GOD.

Luke 10:19-20- reads this way.- Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. I guess this is where they think they have the protection of GOD to play with snakes, heck more power to them. To me the only good snake is a dead snake. Although they were given power over them in this scripture do I see anywhere where it says you can play and kiss or anything else and be safe from danger. Playing with snakes ain't living in the spirit.

But people will continue to do the crazy things they do in the name of the Lord, Matthew 7:21-23 [23] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

We can plainly see here that Jesus said just because they do these things doesn't mean I agree with what they do. I myself don't think that playing with snakes is one of the things he agrees with. Might as well call that craziness suicide. Serving GOD is fun and exciting , refreshing when you truly find the place, or Church GOD wants you at. A lot of people just die right away from not being fed the word of GOD. There are two stages you must go through tho to grow in Christ, as a babe must crawl before they walk, a babe needs the milk before the meat of the word. I will say one thing about the church I did attend for many years and it took almost to the time the pastor retired to realize this, that he was choking the babe before they had a chance to grow in Christ. Friend living in the spirit is wonderful, And I will say this in closing this blog. Try it you may like it. The word of GOD is good to the last bite, and the milk to the last drop.


Thanks again jesseb's
Shalom and Peace to Isael.
