Recently
the Lord put a person in my path that kept asking me about various
prophets on cable tv. I said I don't have time to listen or to do
anything but that Jesus puts it before me Himself. Claiming to be a
prophet, she said "Oh, I just watch it for confirmation on the words I
get."
So here I am to reply with what God says about this mentality on this episode of hearingGod...
In Matthew 24 we are
warned: 23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or
‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will
rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the
elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.
26 “Therefore if they say
to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in
the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning comes from
the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of
Man be. 28 For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be
gathered together.
And in the book of Daniel
(12:4) we hear: "...even to the time of the end many shall run to and
fro and knowledge shall be increased."
So how do we fall into this
trap? By expecting manna to be in one place, perhaps? Remember each
day the Israelites had to pitch the old and go out and collect new else
it would rot. Perhaps we become so Man focused that we forget that we
are supposed to be God focused instead? Now remember this is what it
says of the end times...--28 "For wherever the carcass is, there the
eagles will be gathered together." Isn't it interesting that the
biblical interpretation of what an 'eagle' represents is a prophet!
Remember, I'm just reading the word of God here.
What was really funny was
that this same individual seemed to have a problem that I was not in a 'church box' at the time. I explained that church is 2 or 3 gathered in His
name not some big assembly. Or maybe I should've said eagles sitting
around a carcass!
The fact of the matter is that the age of the gentiles has been fulfilled. The Link for info has since disappeared from the internet so I'll include it at the bottom of this page.
In Daniel we find out when
the end of the Gentile church was and in Hebrews (8:8-10) we find out
what it is to be in covenant with the Lord God most high..... "For this
is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those
days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on
their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 11
None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying,
‘Know the LORD,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the
greatest of them. "
If you are seeking God
alone you KNOW HIM....how easy is that? You don't need a man filter,
you don't need to bubble over here & there & every which way
filling your head with noise. You ask, you seek, you knock....you
receive God as He confirms what He wants you to know...however He shows
up!
Please be warned the danger of of not minding your own and God's own business....
In 2 Chronicles 18:20-22 we
have an important lesson to learn by the example in the prophet Micaiah
versus every other prophet in the kingdom of Ahab... In what I read is
Micaiah explaining to the king what God showed him:
20 "Then a spirit came
forward and stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will persuade him.’ The
LORD said to him, ‘In what way?’ 21 So he said, ‘I will go out and be a
lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And the LORD said, ‘You
shall persuade him and also prevail; go out and do so.’ 22 Therefore
look! The LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these prophets of
yours, and the LORD has declared disaster against you.”
Maybe
today God led you here for this message...but tomorrow He'll confirm
what He's been trying to tell you elsewhere...and maybe even through a
tv evangelist. I'm not anti-christian tv... I just know what the word
of God says & you are not going to find a feeding trough here on
earth anymore. You ask He shows up, that's how it works. The worst
thing you can do is reject if He shows up and you cannot recognize Him
because 'religion' has brainwashed you in to believing He won't show up
through some unsaved person or a bum on the street or an unchristian
song on the radio. Don't let yourself be captured in some box
somewhere...those days are over. Let Him teach you, train you. No more
itching ears!!!

[Originally from this site.... www.assemblyofyahshua.com/gentile.htm....it has now become defunct]
We
have been taught for a great while now that YAHWEH has turned his back
on the Israelites and has instead chosen the Gentile people. Although
according to the bible there never was a mention of a gentile church,
and the words "Gentile bride" are never mentioned. It is true that there
were Gentiles who were made spiritual Israelites by Yahweh in order for
them to be accepted into the kingdom of YAHSHUA. Romans 11:11 says
about Israel: "I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall?
YAHWEH forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the
Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy." The chapter goes on to refer
to the Gentiles as a wild olive branch graphed onto a good olive tree.
The Gentiles are also warned that it is much easier to graph the
original limbs back onto the tree. This was a reference to Israel and
the time when YAHWEH would turn his face back to them. Yes, YAHWEH has
promised many times in the bible that one day his face would be turned
back to his chosen people, Israel. (Ezek. 36:19-24), (Ezek. 37:15-23),
(Isa. 54:4-7). And: Luke
21:24 states about Israel: "And they shall fall by the edge of the
sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem
shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles
be fulfilled." This is speaking of the hard times Israel will come
across until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled and YAHWEH turns his
face back to them. Romans 11:25-29 states: "For I would not, brethren,
that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in
your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until
the fullness of the Gentiles be come in. And so all Israel shall be
saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and
shall turn away unrighteousness from Jacob: For this is my covenant
unto them when I shall take away their sins. As concerning the gospel,
they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are
beloved for the fathers' sakes. For the gifts and calling of YAHWEH are
without repentance." This again is a warning to the Gentiles that YAHWEH
will turn his face back to Israel when the times of the Gentiles are
fulfilled. Hebrews 8:8-12 states about Israel: "For finding fault with
them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith YAHWEH, when I will make a
new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not
according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when
I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because
they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith
Yahweh. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel after those days, saith the YAHWEH; I will put my laws into their
mind, and write them in their hearts; and I will be to them a ELOHIM,
and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach every man his
neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know YAHWEH: for all shall
know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to
their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I
remember no more." Again YAHWEH has said he will turn back to Israel.
There is another component to the scriptures. Luke 21:24 states:
".....and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the
times of the Gentiles be fulfilled." Rom. 11:25 states:
".......blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of
the Gentiles be come in." These scriptures make it clear that the days
of the gentile are not continuous and have an appointed end. Another
point is that both of these scriptures mention occurrences that will
happen at the end of the gentile period. 1.) Jerusalem shall no longer
be trodden down of the gentiles. 2.) Partial blindness will no longer
happen to Israel. So according to these scriptures there will be an end
to YAHWEH's grace toward the gentiles, when this end comes Jerusalem
shall again be in the hands of the Jews, and at that time Israel will no
longer be blind. If you consider yourself to be a gentile the biggest
question on your mind is probably, "When will the gentile time be
fulfilled?" The answer is in the eight chapter of the book of Daniel.
Within this chapter Daniel describes a vision.
Daniel
8: "In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared
unto me even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the
first. And I saw a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was
at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in
a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai. Then I lifted up mine eyes,
and saw and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two
horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other
and the higher came up last. I saw the ram pushing westward, and
northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him,
neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did
according to his will and became great. And as I was considering,
behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth,
and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his
eyes. And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen
standing before the river, and ran into him in the fury of his power.
And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler
against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was
no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the
ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the
ram out of his hand. Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he
was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable
ones toward the four winds of heaven. And out of one of them came forth a
little horn, which waxed exceedingly great, toward the south, and
toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. And it waxed great, even
to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the
stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. yea, he magnified himself
even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken
away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. And an host was
given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it
cast down the truth to the ground, and it practiced, and prospered.
Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that
certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the
daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the
sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me,
Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be
cleansed. And it came to pass, that when I, even I Daniel, had seen the
vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me
as the appearance of a man. And I heard a man's voice between the banks
of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand
the vision. So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was
afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand O son of
man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision. Now as he was
speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground:
but he touched me, and set me upright. And he said, Behold, I will make
thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the
time appointed the end shall be. the ram which thou sawest having two
horns are the kings of Media and Persia. And the rough goat is the king
of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first
king. Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms
shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power. And in the
latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the
full, a king of fierce countenance and understanding dark sentences,
shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power:
and he shall destroy the mighty and the kodesh people. And through his
policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in this hand; and he shall
magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall
also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken
without hand. And the vision of the evening and the morning which was
told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for
many days. And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I
rose up, and did the king's business; and was astonished at the vision,
but none understood it."
This chapter is very important. It is very mysterious and Daniel's associates couldn't understand
it even though Gabriel had explained it to Daniel. Gabriel explained to
Daniel that this vision concerned the end time (Daniel 8:19) and that
it was about a battle between the Grecian king and the Medo/Persian
king. It is not until now, in the end time, we can get an idea of the
message from this vision. Such a battle was fought between King Darius
III and Alexander the Great, at Issus in then Syria, in the Roman year
of 333 B.C. You may ask your self, "Why is this battle so important? Why
would this be in the Bible? After all, many kings fought with one
another in those times." But this one was important, because it gives a
starting date for the two thousand three hundred days of Daniel's vision
(Daniel 8:13-14). In the book of Daniel days are used as a symbol of
years, so the days are actually two thousand three hundred years. And
what will happen for those years? Daniel 8:13 says that both the
sanctuary and the host were to be trodden under foot. These same words
echo back in Luke 21:24 that again states: ".....and Jerusalem shall be
trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be
fulfilled." This tells us that Daniel's vision was concerning the length
of the time of grace toward the Gentiles. We now have a starting date
(333 B.C.), a length of time (2300 years), and an action to happen at
the end of that time (Jerusalem being retaken by Israel and the time of
the Gentiles closing). To get the date of this occurrence we simply have
to the beginning time from the ending time. 2300 A.D. - 333 B.C. = 1967
A.D. (2300 - 333 = 1967). According to history the Jews, who call
themselves Israel, reclaimed the city of Jerusalem in 1967 in the six
day war. And to this day they rule over it. If this is true, then the
Gentile times were fulfilled, grace was withdrawn from the gentiles, and
YAHWEH turned his face back to Israel in 1967. All of this happened but
nobody noticed and there was no rapture of the church!!
If
you consider yourself to be a gentile you may refuse to believe it or
you may be wondering what you will do now. Do not fret, keep reading
there is more. YAHWEH does not desert his people! If YAHWEH has put it
in your heart to read this far chances are you belong to him and are one
of the ones he said would be his people.

"So isn't all sin equal and same thing goes for like masturbation and sexual things ?
Yes, to sin is to turn away from God. If we fall and repent.. no prob., but if we are habitual and love the sin then God gives us what we want...
The thing people don't realize is that in this world we are exposed to His presence... it surrounds us. We can go further with Him and invite Him within for even more! The rude awakening of hell is that it hurts so much because it's totally devoid of the presence of God. They don't know what they got until it's gone....ouch!
