SAYINGS.
"If it is the Will of the great Lord,
The creating of a man's spirit is the work of
God. Only those perfected in righteousness will inherit immortality. Adam
failed, and lost immortality.
Parents who wilfully ignore the Word of the Lord, have offspring who ignore their word in the things that matter.
Foolish parents in contests of rage lose their children's love.
Keeping safe in purity, along with self-discipline, is how wisdom is found. (Eccles 7:12 NWT. Prov 22:11).
The spirit of a nation is one aspect, the spirit of an individual another; before the Lord in the judgement.
The Lord tolerates our shamefulness; in return we show Him impatience.
Our worst enemies spread out the largest nets,
using many helpers. Watchfulness and holy wisdom will help you make an escape
from them.
A contentious wife is loathsome, and is where sadness resides. (Prov 21:19).
Those pursued by the flesh of a brazen female are near to ruin.
The works of selfish pride and self-glorification are among the most detestable qualities; and are spirit rebellion.
Old men lacking wisdom reflect and articulate many futilities. Young men should learn how to discriminate between the speech of the wise, and the foolish. (Ecclesiasticus 1:25-27 NEB).
A violent man believes he is right all the time. He thinks only of the injury he can inflict to have his way, and throws caution to the winds.
A trained mind has learned how to dismiss worthless thoughts and replace them with thoughts that are good.
Do not hold onto anger too long, it may replace and ruin your whole nature. Impetuous actions cause regret, and expose an untrained and careless mind.
Instant indifference to others is ostracizing one's own soul, and reveals a total absence of love. (Prov 11:17 NWT).
The minds of men are often fickle; sureness comes with having learned the ways of wisdom.
Stubbornness in error hardens the heart until there is no healing. (Prov 29:1)
Oppressors are tyrants who have stored up seven torments for themselves; which will begin when they are judged. (2 Esdras 9:10-12 NEB).
A calm spirit at all times is a very desirable condition.
The "fiery coals" of good speech implanted in the mind of an arrogant one can burn out his hatred, and replace it with a change to loving considerateness, along with an apology.
A wild beast without fear goes its own way regardless; the same as tyrants over men, and use great cunning to kill those they prey on.
The rich possess only material objects, while the faithful are promised immortality. So why complain? Is it because you have neither?
A sharpened blade is dangerous in the hand of a heartless one; so too private talk in the ear of a gossip.
Do not be fooled, the adulteress seeks both
your body and your spirit by trampling on your spirit hope of immortality.
Make your escape!
The wiles of unruly women can rob men of their dignity.
The wife who is the glory of her faithful husband is a delight before God.
Just as a wise man takes more time over a serious matter than a fool, you should take your time to find one that is wise.
Each "trumpet" warning was followed by the "bowls" of God's anger. His anger "upon the air" brings it all to a finish, (Rev 16:17) but continues when the nations become angry.
Words that praise the Lord are good. Obedient acts of holiness in His Name are better.
Sacrificing one's superfluous nature and readjusting it to a heavenly nature is putting on holiness. God's Word contains all righteous adjustments.
Like a dog growling is when arrogance speaks, and like barking when it shouts.
A fool boasts about his nature, a modest person lets his nature speak for him.
I have seen men memorializing their dead with floral tributes at cenotaphs, close to the destitute living in doorways and boxes, whom they ignore.
Human idols are detestable to the Lord.
It is not the actual deeds of persecution that we should bless, but the opportunity that persecution provides to develop our spirit. One's willingness to suffer it for righteousness' sake perfects one's spirit.
Judges who only understand punishment waste many lives. Understanding the quality of mercy saves them. Mercy must have its work complete in the lives of those to whom it is extended.
Genealogies are useless unless they contribute to the teachings of legal principles.
Those whose spirit has drained out the wrath of God are full of understanding. (Isaiah 51:17. Dan 12:10).
Those expecting faultlessness from their father experience disappointments.
Expecting much from others, while lacking in loving consideration for others, is sinful.
Refreshing sleep, sensible measures of good food, and regularity of motion, gives good health.
Every misery can result in having a beneficial purpose, but how many see it that way?
Fools hate wisdom, even when it is offered as a gift.
Afflictions can save the spirit of men, especially the arrogant and irrational, humbling them so that they begin to fear God.
Deep concentration slows down a quickened mind.
Useless anger subsides when reasonableness is allowed its work.
Overeating and heavy drinking, which is worse? They both console briefly and both are destructive.
Moderation in all things is a discipline of one's own mind and habits.
Gossiping women are a curse upon families. Only if you publicly expose and humiliate them, will they stop.
Our Lord Jesus developed a symbolic language to embrace and increase our knowledge, to benefit all his enemies.
The seven "wild beast" rulers (of its "image") subjugated the poor and extended its boundaries of power. Satan's authority invested in its "image" continued in those ruling politically for 666 years, using rebellious men with its "mark" and number 666.
The "false prophet", consisting of many charities, roused the nations in the last days to bandage the people struck down by God's anger. They will all be abyssed.
The "mother of the harlots" originated from the time and place of "Babylon the great", and over many generations veiled the minds of people through their consciences regarding the Kingdom of God.
"The harlots" today are all false religious sects and bodies. Their spirit birth originated with their "mother", ancient "Babylon the great" (with over fifty false deities).
The "contemptible creature" (Khomeini) of Daniel's prophecy, came to power by dissimulation, and warred against anointed covenant members of God on earth in the "last days", after others had placed the "disgusting thing" in authority to usurp The Christ's remaining brothers.
The "disgusting thing" trampled on anointed Sons of God, removed them, and stood up in authority in the holy place themselves. The "disgusting thing" is also the "man of lawlessness" (2 Thess 2:1-12 NWT) who are guilty of the final apostasy of "abomination" against the Spirit of God in the "last days", masquerading as the sect calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses.
The "Antichrist" chose to believe that God is also the Son, knowing neither, with non-acceptance of the Lord who is His first-born, and rejecting The Christ's God-given authority.
Through their rebellious schemes (manifestations of their spirit), all these people have been gathered to the place called Harmagedon. They have been refined out from the hope of everlasting life in the realm God, and await Gehenna.
The husband of an adulterous wife should dismiss her. She is unclean.
We have one mediator The Christ Jesus. Instruction in justice, mercy, and righteousness you should seek from the mouths of his anointed underpriests.
Sacrificing a ruined male animal was cursed by God. How great then is the sin of those offering a ruined human to serve as a priest to administer the things of God? (Mal 1:14). Rejecting true priests of God is robbing Him and the nations. Listening to His priests brings a blessing until there is no more want.
A day is coming when you will be able to tell good men from bad, of those who served from those who did not, of those with Holy Spirit from those without holiness.
How can a spirit be created without some measure of adversity? To refine, there is need of heat from "fire."
Knowing and answering righteously the needs of others is showing love.
I have seen men put on military uniforms to transform them into potential killers. I have seen suspected murderers put in cells to be put to death by law, while uniformed men who murdered 'the enemy' go free.
Baptism and sanctification is a matter between God and His subjects. It is not by means of other men's presumptuous questionings as to their validity before, during, or afterward.
Women are forever removing dust and washing their homes. How many women gather up sentences that give life? How many are being sanctified?
Many have grown old neglecting their obligations to God; their ears blocked up with age old defiance. Only God will unblock the hearing of these, but with their shame.
Supplanting anointed sons of God is a "disgusting thing".
Stubborn apostates show hate to the sons of God, and are ostracised by Him. Though they seek to comfort themselves and shelter in greater numbers, they have lost their hope in God. Their women act as men and try to teach sacred things. Their men-folk become as women, instead of God's glory.
"Stumbling blocks" often come from the mouths and deeds of evil men and women. They will not escape punishment, for they may have successfully contributed to the loss of many lives as well as their own.
By seeking self-prominence and authority over
anointed Sons of God, some have tried lift themselves above God. His anointing
teaches them and He gives instruction through His anointed sons for the
congregations.
Like the bird catcher, apostates use very large nets --to catch men-- even those quick to flee. But those trained in Godly wisdom confound them, and laugh at their plight.
Whatever degree of wickedness a man puts onto the 'plates' of others to digest, this is what will be served up to him.
Apostates refuse further disciplines, and wake from their sleep of unrighteousness empty and unrecognised by the Lord.
The "weeds" among men are spirit bullies. The "wheat" are those they bully. The "fire" of judgement separates them. The refined gain immortality.
Disease, war, famine and drought are the "four families" of God sent to teach men better ways. Many are those sacrificed for just a few.
As when the door of opportunity to life was opened to those entering the ark, and then closed, so the period for people's salvation through baptism has closed, for the "good news" through The Christ has finished. (Rev 10:7 NWT). A "flood of righteousness" will flood the unGodly away. (Isaiah 10:22 NEB). * * * |
