Gate Called Strait

"Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." Luke 13:23-24

"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." Matthew 11:12-15

"The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it." Luke 16:16

I was given a vision

of a narrow way gate

And written above

there was a sign called Strait

Before this gate

there were souls all around

Pressed into a mass

they seemed to abound

They stood back to back

and shoulder to shoulder

Blocking the gate

some were young and some older

They pressed and they pushed

against one another

Each one held their own key

diverse from the others

Some carried their Bibles

and books in their bags

Some poured forth their healing oils

on to prayer cloths and rags

Some held their degrees

so proudly in hand

Some stood before extravagant Church houses

built upon sand

Some bore huge Crosses

draped over their backs

Some passed out newsletters

fliers and tracts

Some carried signs

some shouted to preach

Some waved their banners

some stood to teach

Some ran in circles

while others stood still

Some gave Psychological Counseling

prescribing out pills

Some laughed out of control

and staggered like drunks

Some fell backward unconscious

as if they were punched

Some bowed before statues

and prayed with their beads

Some never stopped trying

to meet every one's needs

Some jumped and danced

some played and skipped

Some feed the poor

and prayed over the sick

Some played their instruments

of music with joy

Some welded swords

as if they were toys

Some attacked others

making them fall

Some told funny stories

bringing laughter to all

Some there were parents

some were just kin

Some were the parent's grown children

some were good friends

Some were teen girls

and some were teen boys

Some stood by quiet

while the others made a loud noise

Some there were women

some there were men

And they all had one thing in common

they all sought to get in

Yet before this Strait Gate

where I beheld this multitude stand

I couldn't help but to notice

that so few actually got in

Not one soul got in

with pomp or with pride

Only those who loved Jesus

and who themselves they denied

Only those who were made poor

and who for Jesus were dejected

Only those slandered for Christ

who walked alone and rejected

For some of them crawled

just to get inside the gate

They were stepped on and trampled

with contempt and great hate

Some of them were tempted

with divers strange lust

Yet they resisted their tempters

being filled with disgust

Some others marched forward

only in sin to fall

Yet they stood again by God's grace

as upon the Name of Jesus they called

Repenting they marched onward

against the shame of their sins

Enduring the contradictions of sinners

and the accusations of men

Some were stripped bare

of all the material possessions they had

Yet they did not turn back

and they refused to be sad

Some had to fight hard

to break through their own families and friends

For such sought to dissuade them

from entering on in

Some were Apostles

and some were Prophets of Power

Some were Evangelist and Pastors

who refused to be cowards

Some were Holy Street Preachers

who labored unknown

Some were the Righteous who died

for Christ’s sake all alone

Saved by God’s Grace through true Faith

these few made it in

And they all had one thing in common

they all overcame Self, Satan and Sin

Some were battered and beaten

as they were verbally stoned

Yet as they entered the Gate

they beheld God on His Throne

Some entered in fighting the good fight

only to give forth a sigh

Some entered in joyfully

while others in brokenness cried

These Called, Chosen and Faithful

had taken the kingdom by force

Because they had to press and fight through

the whole way of the course

Yet at long last they had found

the Strait Gate to be opened for them

For they pressed through all the gate keepers

until they finally got in

And as they arose

on the Strait Gate's other side

They knew they made it home

and never again would they die.

"Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God." Acts 14:22

"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 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. 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? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it." Matthew 7:13-27

The

Hide and Seekers

Turning the Spiritual things of Christ into a Carnal Vice

"Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labors. Behold ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. Is it such a fast as I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush? and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?" Isaiah 58:1-7

To understand a wretched man

just look within thyself

The curse of being born in sin

the groanings can be felt

Broken hearts become hard as stone

yet few crumble as soft as sand

The Master Potter molds the clay

and forms the vessel once again

Chaotic souls in the land

no peace do they possess

Others drift not really sure

their souls can find no rest

In Hell they gnaw and gnash in pain

on earth they cry and scream

Blinded unto their most inner need

they're numb as if in a dream

So some exhaust their bodies dry

still no Living Waters spring

In giving themselves to pleasure's sin

death holds a certain sting

Some get high as others drink

they are bound by chains of sin

Drifting and tripping into delusions

deeper they descend

Some sell their flesh on the corner

while others pay to partake their sin

Yet it's all done to numb the pain

which screams from deep within

The soul it reaches out for more

never to be filled

The inner most cries of the longing sighs

testify that the void is oh so real

The fix for some is vice and evil

while for others it's nice and good

If only they could save themselves?

If only they really could!

Some Preach the Word they stand so tall

as warriors they have such pride

Some boast of gifts, speaking in tongues

yet they live the Charismatic Lie

Some pray loud for the sick

only to be seen of men

While some dance and run and shout and yell

as others praise and stand

Some cast out devils and some fast and pray

while others just sit to watch in Awe

Yet if all the flesh were exposed

much of it would fall?

Men drowned in sorrows to touch that place

their souls to satisfy

With a gutter or religious fix

to make their yearnings to subside

Thus what separates the sinner from the saint

is true repentance before the God who died for all

''Hide Not Thyself from Thine Own Flesh''

When shall they seriously heed the call?

"There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God." Romans 8:1-8

Dimensions of Mentality

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6

"Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church: Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily." Colossians 1:12-29

If spiritual reality was like a finger print

And everyone had their own

And if everyone's own beliefs were held to be true

Then God in their hearts would be dethroned

For if spiritual reality was like a finger print

And all path ways led to God

Then God would be what each person perceived

No matter how contradictory, confusing or odd

Because if spiritual reality was like a finger print

Then each person would be their own god

And if everyone believed their own way to be right

Confusion and chaos would flow like a flood

So if spiritual reality was like a finger print

Based upon each life from which it derived

Conceived in the mind of each person

Formed by the experiences they've lived and survived

Then each one's godhood would then be dependant

Upon a greater factor than themselves alone

Therefore we now have a real contradiction

To this spiritual reality which each claims as their own

For each "little god's" existence would still be dependant

Upon God's Creation from which they survive

And only one man is greater than Creation

He is the "Living Word" and The "Way, Truth and Life"

For Jesus Christ is God and One with the Father

Let all the little gods of this world take heed

For only Jesus Commanded the forces of Creation

When He calmed the Storm and Walked on the Sea

By His Authority and Power He Raised the Dead

Not even Death or the Grave could hold Him down

For He alone Is The Alpha and the Omega

And He alone wears the Highest of Crowns

Thus be not deceived by this "Old Age" serpent teaching

For it was this "New Age" deception that brought about man's fall

And "Naming and Claiming it" with a "Positive Confession" by "Thinking"

Never brought back the dead or altered any supernatural laws

Therefore this "Consensus Reality" of a "Harmonic Convergence"

Is the ultimate delusion of a world gone spiritually insane

It's the merging of the masses into one global consciousness

Yet these New Age Witches and Warlocks have all run in vain

For every knee shall bow before God the Father

And every tongue shall then have to confess

That Jesus Christ the Lamb is the Lord God Almighty

To the Glory of His Father in true righteousness.

"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:9-11

Disfunctional Dilemma

"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it." Romans 8:18-25

Presumptions become disfunctions

When theological needs are not met

Thus creation groans for that which calls

Within its soul scared with deep regret

Inundated by contradictions

The battle for spiritual life rages on

As strong delusions are cascading down

Inspiring a perverse celestial song

Time marches on as the seasons change

Nothing in this realm remains the same

From birth to death from death to birth

The mystery has been thus framed

Destiny calls from beyond within

Eternity beckons travailing in pain

Reflected within the watery mirrors of life

Through the eyes of all that is unsane

Conformed unto a disfunctional state

The fortress of consciousness has thus been merged

Through the subconscious door of the heart and soul

Of a humanity caught up in the surge

Thus be foretold and be forewarned

The Kingdom of God is now nigh

To be birthed forth through the pain of the death

Of this present physical realm of time

It cometh not by flesh and blood

It can not be observed with the human eye

It is being done - God's Kingdom Comes

Eternity pauses and then it sighs.

"Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world." Matthew 13:33-35

The

Mystery of Iniquity

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2nd Thessalonians 2:3-12

When the clock of time at Midnight strikes

Where then shall the children stand

Who hath partaken of the curse of the tree of death

From the serpent's deceptive hand

Now strong delusion falls like rain

Upon a mentally wicked race

Of flesh and blood creatures racing toward judgment

In hell to find their place

Conformed to the image of the man of sin

How sad they do not know

There is now no difference between the Church and the secular world

The mystery of iniquity takes its toll

Dimensions of mentality

The fruit of the forbidden tree

The world shall be as one

Unified in diversity

One in the mystery of sin

This terrestrial realm shall not last

One in the present hereafter

Birthed forth from histories past

This present universe shall burn

Thus their New World Order shall not stand

And all who partake in their Religious Lie

Shall certainly be judged and damned

Thus beware of this Harmonic Convergence

Of a New Age Lie of forsaking the Lord

It's the merging of world consciousness

Through the harmony of music and words

For behind all the blind leaders of the blind

Satan is sealing and marking his own

It's the divergence of the Church and its worship

To the convergence of exalting his throne

Except there come a falling away first

And that man of sin being revealed:

Therefore through their worship the antichrist is rising

This mystery of iniquity that worketh is real

Thus the son of perdition is more

Than an individual leader or man

It's a united conglomeration of religions

Unified with this world to stand

It's a egalitarian system of spiritual lawlessness

A consensus of minds which are fixed in their fate

It's an allegiance of human spirits of antichrist

Which are at one in their hearts full of hate

It's a counterfeit body and bride

Whose head and husband is Satan the Beast

It's a One World Harlot and Church System of Lust

For worldliness, idolatry and greed

Thus it's a generation which is finally revealed

To be the spiritual image of lucifer in man

It's a spiritual species of reprobate souls

Filling the cup of iniquity whose time is at hand

Full of blasphemies, perversions and lies

To be initiated into Satan's Mystery by the Mark of the Beast

Already conditioned to worship a Sinful Messiah

Christian Entertainment proved a most effective seed.

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time." 1st John 2:15-18

Midnight Shepherds Stand

"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flocks by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not:..." Luke 2:8-10

Watchman what of the night?

O ye Shepherds stand

Awaiting the coming of Christ

We shall behold the Lamb

Take heart and lift your eyes

Your redemption is nigh to come

In the glory of His majesty

God’s most holy Son

We must study in prayerful diligence

To show ourselves approved

Workman who need not to be ashamed

Rightly dividing the Word of truth

Taking heed over the flocks by night

O ye shepherds stand

Turn not unto the left or right

For the most holy faith you must contend

Let us pray for a reformation

To awake this last day Church

Lest we lose this generation

That’s reprobate and nigh to be cursed

For without a reformation

True revival can not be grasped

Because unless the entertainment is purged from the Church

The spirit of antichrist shall be all that is left.

Thus we must come out from among them

To set our hearts to pray

In repentance for true deliverance

From a harlot Church system that’s reprobate.

"...fear ye not. For thus saith the LORD of host, Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts." Haggai 2:5-7

Modern Ministry

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;" 1st Timothy 4:1-2

The Pulpit of God

Is not an actors stage

Upon which to express

Such a worldly craze

To emotionally twist the lost

To be spiritually cursed in soul

Yet their drama nor wit

Can stop the Bells of Hell which toll

In a spiritually drunken haze

Of religious confusion at best

Mentally maiming the souls

Which they emotionally molest

For they are just hypocrite actors

With only a pretense and pose

Trying desperately to hide

From the truth they all know

They have a script in their head

Not God's Word in their hearts

Seared in conscience thus spiritually dead

They are so lost in the dark

For by the power of seducing spirits

They are damning souls

Refusing to Preach Sound Doctrine

They've turned to fables and shows

Thus the hearts of their victims

Are corrupted at Church from within

For they are performing for Satan

To make them twice dead in their sins

Making them twofold more

The very child of Hell

It's the gross hypocrisy and danger

Of their satanic spell

They call it the Radical Evangelism

Of a more Modern Ministry

But it's really worldly Entertainment

And their lust for idolatry

Yet this world's system is Satan's

Not a "Christian" play ground

It's a battle field for lost souls

Which desperately need to be found

For deep in the darkness

In the unfantable depths of hell

By reason of such sinful vanities

Satan's fallen victims dwell

And in the echos of their maddening cries

Their worm is twisting ever more

Thus catasrophie awaits the damned

As their wrath incurred doth pour

Upon a hill in another realm

No more therefore to pass

The Blood of the Lamb was shed

And now their day of grace hath passed

And in this land of such hypocrisy

They can not possibly hear such cries

Especially in the drunken haze

Through which their stuplified

Thus we must not to compromise

With such worldly schemes of lust

Lest we be found with guilty hands

Upon which are stained their blood

This World No More

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." 2nd Corinthians 6:14-18

Your mind it draws a blank

This world holds nothing more

You feel like you’re living on the edge

Of a hereafter to be no more

You go to Church and sit

And you behold all the religious games

You feel like a Pilgrim without a home

And everything seems vain

We must lay hold of God

And repent of this our sin

We go to worldly Churches

Why lie we can’t pretend?

Lord please hear our prayers

Forgive our wayward souls

Cleanse our hearts from sin

And please wash us white as snow

Let us hear Thy voice

Speak clearly once again

Reprove, Rebuke, Exhort

Until we comprehend

Whisper Thy sweet grace

Open up our eyes

Set ablaze our lukewarm hearts

So that we wont compromise

Then send us to go forth

That we might seek Thy face

For only through true prayer

Can we know such gloriously grace.

"Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD: That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD." Psalms 26:1-12

End Time

Tabernacle

"Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD'S house should be built. Then came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying, Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste? Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways. Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes. Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways. Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the LORD. Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house. Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit. And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands." Haggai 1:2-11

"Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing? Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts: According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not. For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts." Haggai 2:3-9

Spiritual winter is now upon us

The hand writting is on the wall

False prophets abound on all sides

It's the waxing cold that Jesus foresaw

Thus the wickedness that abounds

As the love of so many becomes so cold

Therefore we must endure unto the end

And face the battle before us bold

For we have been given God's Armor

And a two-edged sword with which to fight

Thus we must stand in this evil day

By the power of God's Word and His might

Praying always with all prayer

In hope against hope believing by faith

Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together

And so much the more as the hour grows late

Thus let us come out from the bitter deep cold

Let us gather together in that wonderful Name

For in Mount Sion the Son Light is shinning

And upon His true people His Spirit shall rain

Therefore let us come unto these Living Waters

Away from all vexations, worries and strifes

And let us drink deep from the Wells of Salvation

To quench our thirst from His River of Life

For the Testimony of Jesus is God's only true Light House

To signal all the lost ships at sea

Adrift in the darkness and dangers

And one of those lost ships used to be me

Thus let us build a Light House of spiritual safety

Upon the true foundation of the Rock of God's Word

For there are so many light houses with lamps going out

Where the warning signals can no longer be heard

That's why so many ships are sailing in the darkness

Being ship wrecked upon the shore lines of deception and sin

As multitudes are swept into the depths of Satan

Sinking in the under toll of the false doctrines of men

So let us build a True Light House for Jesus

For in this world of such gross darkness a candle wont do

Because without an End Time Tabernacle as a Safe Haven of Rest

The lost ships just can't make it through

Thus let us prepare for God's Great End Time Visitation

The Last Day Great Revival of Glory to Come

To prepare His people to go through the darkness

For God's will and purpose to be accomplished and done

For there is a great shaking of all things that's coming

As this world's Nations shall crumble and fall

Thus our fallen soldiers must be recovered

Yet how shall they hear if we don't send forth the call

For there shall follow a Hellish Hurricain of Darkness

A Storm of Great Tribulation and Wrath

As God's Judgements fall upon a world so unrepentant

And Satan's anger rages when to the earth he is cast

Let us Build an End Time Tabernacle Refuge

Let us enter into the Ark of His Presense and Grace

Let us come together as the Body of Christ

To behold the Glory of God shinning in His Holy face

Let us awake to the urgency before us

Let us awake before time is no more

Let us hear Him who speaketh from heaven

And shine forth this witness from shore to shore.

"But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire." Hebrew 12:22-29

The

Gates of Hell

"When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Matthew 16:13-19

Endlessly beckoning

Across the realms which be

Viciously administering

Dark demon seeds

Unbelievers held captive

Locked in they cry

Suffering in bondage

Slowly to die

Apostates who chose their fate

Fallen from life's narrow path

Persecutors of the righteous

Vessels to be fitted unto wrath

Demons dominantly ruthless

And brutally real

Demanding submission

Your soul to steal

Beckoning intensely

Feeling the sphere

Dimensions colliding

To sense when they're near

Channeling through doorways

The darkside of the gulf

Birthed forth in darkness

Within souls that are lost

Expressing through mankind

Intentions they must

Mankind yielding their bodies

To work wicked lust

Principalities and powers

Spiritual wickednesses on high

Rulers of the darkness

Dominions and mights

Manifesting through atmospheres

Of pagan rituals and rites

Crossing over the thresholds

Invading the houses of light

Through cultural carnalities

Through entertainments and arts

With such mesmerizing witchcrafts

We are to have no compromise or part

For such are pathways forbidden

Bridges not to be crossed

For upon the broadway to destruction

Our souls will be lost

Yet the gates of hell shall not prevail

Against the called, chosen, faithful and few

Who enter in by the strait gate

And walk the narrow way that is true.

"The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all." Ephesians 1:18-23

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;"Ephesians 6:10-18

Let Us Be Holy

Let Us Be One

A Declaration of Religious Independence and Spiritual Freedom

"And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us." 1st John 3:23-24

We hold these truths to be self evident

That God has created us so

Endowing His people with certain inalienable rights

Even His Word and will to walk in and know

(John 1:1-14)

For self, sin and the pursuit of pleasure

In this world’s system we do not ask

For we are looking for a far better country

Even God’s Kingdom which never shall pass

(Hebrews 11:14-16)

For America is not the Promised Land

And this world is not our home

We do not trust in the political process

And our religion comes not from Rome

(2nd Corinthians 5:1-17)

The Pope is not our father

For so called "Christian" Entertainers we hold no praise

The denominational world has gone into apostasy

And we shall not follow their worldly ways

(Matthew 23:9-12 / 2nd Thessalonians 2:1-3)

For we are God’s Last Day Remnant

Even the Invisible Body of Christ

And from the underground we are now rising

As One Holy Nation under God to unite

(1st Peter 2:1-17)

Thus we declare our Religious Independence

And our Spiritual Freedom from the religious powers that be

For it is written "Come Out From Among Them"

"Be Ye Separate" for God to receive

(2nd Corinthians 6:14-18)

Thus we have the right to mark and avoid them

And we have the right from such to turn away

And we are free to "come out from among them"

So that we might walk in the strait narrow way

(Romans 16:17-18 / 2nd Timothy 3:1-5 / Matthew 7:13-20)

We are free to come out of "The Mother of Harlots"

Free to come out of her Charismatic and Ecumenical lies

Free to come out of the false Protestant Pimpery

Which her Popes and Jesuit Priest have cunningly devised

(Revelation 17:1-18 / 2nd Peter 1:16-21)

No more to be her spiritually dependant religious junkies

In need of a dramatic or an emotional fix

For her "Revival on Broadway" is a deception of Satan

And her American Watchman is a real hypocrite

(2nd Corinthians 11:3-4, 13-15)

Therefore we exercise our God given right

To make this Declaration of Independence so free

Against every usurper of religious authority

Against every submission demanding - control feign

(Galatians 2:4-5)

Such false brethren call us unsubmissive rebels

They even condemn and damn us to hell

Yet it is they themselves who disobey God’s Word

And have compromised it in order to sell

(2nd Peter 2:1-22)

Thus let them slander in rage

Let them mock us in gossip with lies

Reputations aren’t worth this freedom we hold

To escape their eternal demise

(Psalms 2:1-12)

Therefore we pledge our allegiance unto the Lord of the Harvest

Come what may we offer our lives

For in the coming season of persecution madness

We shall be martyred for Jesus to die

(Revelation 6:9-11, 7:9-17 / Matthew 24:9-13 / Luke 21:12-19)

Yet we must follow peace with all men

For without holiness we shall not see God

In our patience and faith our souls we possess

For our true enemy is not flesh and blood

(Hebrews 12:14 / Revelation 13:7-10)

Therefore the weapons of our warfare are not made by man

But they are mighty through the power of our Lord

To the pulling down of satanic strongholds

By the Ministry of Prayer and the Word

(2nd Corinthians 10:3-6)

Thus give us Religious Liberty or Give us Death

For from the fear of death we have been made free

Because Jesus has risen from the dead and the grave

And He is the LORD of lords and the KING of all kings

(1st Timothy 6:12-16 / Revelation 19:11-16)

It is this same Jesus who reigns from His Throne

With a Crown on His head and a Sickle in hand

He alone is the Lord and Head of His Church

And not the Pope who is a mere mortal man

(Revelation 14:9-16 / Colossians 1:12-29)

Therefore this most sacred declaration can only be sealed

By our own sacrifice, suffering, and prayer

For it is time to dispossess the spiritual kingdom of darkness

Thus we must vow for God’s Remnant to safeguard and care

(1st John 3:16-24)

For our love, our loyalty and our lives

Belong to our Captain, Commander and Chief

Who gave His life for the sake of the world

So should we not deny our own selves for the meek?

(John 15:1-21 / 1st John 3:11-24)

Thus let us work while it is yet day

For no man can work once midnight has come

There are still wounded and fallen soldiers we must reach in field

Thus Let us be Holy and Let us be One

(James 5:19-20)

"These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them." John Chapter 17

all these

Things

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:35-39

In the silence, can't you hear the sounds?

Of tormented souls, lost not found?

In the light, will you abide?

Or from manifested deeds, shall you hide?

In the chaos, is there not peace?

When Christ calms the waves and makes storms to cease?

In the night, does not your light so shine?

For to bring self glory, or lost souls to find?

In the vortex, is not all that is seen?

From within deep delusion, not from without truly free?

In the mire, shall not we sink?

Where there is no standing and the waters are deep?

In the watchtowers, do not the watchmen behold?

Seducers and false prophets, and wolves in sheep's cloths?

In the refiner's fire, is there not rest?

When one's faith is tried, and put unto the test?

In the wilderness, can't you hear the cry?

Of one preparing the way, for the second coming of Christ?

In the ground, do not tares grow?

Be not entangled, lest into their furnace you're thrown

In the fields, behold how white

Ready for harvest, we must not cease to fight

In the sounds, can you hear demonic oppressions?

Whispering lies of deceit, seeking souls for their possession?

In under the darkness, fallen angels await

They followed Satan, thus sealing their fate

In the dark, are not we blind?

If we walk in the flesh, how can the devils we bind?

In the world, these demons tempt men

Fulfilling their lust, giving birth to sin

In the sparks, that upward fly

Can not you see how fast we live and die?

In the present, must not we decide?

To follow Jesus, the Way, the Truth and the Life

In the past, have not we learned?

If we play with fire, we shall get burned?

In the future, shall not we dwell?

In the light of our God, or in the torments of hell?

In the vast universe, born of the Spirit from on high

To find that our lives, are hidden in Christ

In the Silence - In the Light

In the Chaos - In the Night

In the Vortex - In the Mire

In the Watchtowers - In the Refiner's fire

In the Wilderness - In the ground

In the Fields - In the Sounds

In under the Darkness - In the Dark

In the World - In the Sparks

In the Present - In the Past

In the Future - In the Vast

In all these things - We must overcome

The hour is getting late - Thus let the race be run

"...in all these things we are more than conquerors

through him that loved us."

Romans 8:37

"Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." 1st Corinthians 9:24-27

"But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:7-14

"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more: (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart: And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:) But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:1-29
