Let the Lions roar

Let’s clarify something important. Jesus said, “where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭18‬:‭20‬.

To explain how this works; when my wife and I are discussing Kingdom matters in the spirit. The spirit of Christ is with us because He is Lord above all things in our life. He is also our guide, teacher, savior and “Holy Refuge” that will lead us into all truth when we spiritually listen to what He is telling us; instead of limiting what we want to hear, by trusting in our own human ability to understand His spiritual truths. (Ref: 1 John 2:27)

In this regard, Jesus said, “when the Spirit of truth has come (into your heart and mind) He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears (from His Father) He will speak (on the fathers behalf); and He will tell you things to come (because He is prophetic.)”
( John‬ ‭16‬:‭13‬, nkjv‬‬ and Spiritual Clarity )

As an example of how this works; after Jesus rose from the grave and ascended into heaven. He sent ‘His’ Holy Spirit, who then overwhelmed all His Disciples with His spiritual wisdom and anointed them to be Apostles of the Good News.

Also, if we study scriptures correctly, we realize that the Holy Spirit “lives in God’s chosen priests,” who’ve been given the crown of life after enduring trials and tribulations, while trusting in and glorifying God with their testimony for Christ.🙏

Now, of course there is a Biblical reference (of multiples available) in the scriptures, to explain what was just said. That scripture will be provided at the bottom of this article.

However, that’s NOT the point being made here or the testimony that will be provided because if you’re a spiritual Christian, then this is elementary knowledge and should not need an explanation. (Ref: Hebrews 6)

Now, after properly preparing any potential reader of this article. Let’s begin, by asking a few important questions, so we can help alleviate some possible confusion.

Did you (as a Christ follower) know there are over 100 “accurate” English Bible Translations that may differ slightly; but still teach the Gospel of Christ to a believer who freely accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior while truthfully confessing Romans chapter 10:9-10 from their heart?

Did you know that attending a church is not a requirement to be saved by Christ, but having faith in Him alone, can allow His spirit to come into you and baptize you by Holy fire?

Well if those are foreign spiritual truths to whoever reads this, then we encourage them to research 🧐 other spiritual writings provided from earlier articles by us and look up Matthew 3:11.

Anyhow, for the spiritual Christians, (who know our hearts for Christ) we would like to explain how we spiritually interpret the scriptures, which are shared for you all to ponder and perhaps challenge us on, if necessary.

With that said, if our friends have noticed, I commonly make clarifying edits or interjections to scripture, which (as some know for a fact) are made by the spirit of Christ (through me) for whatever spiritual message Christ is trying to provide in the writing. All while being completely overwhelmed by His Spirit and denying my flesh at a full surrender to His will.

To explain further,
when spiritually writing, my wife Jessica is (typically) my interpreter and she is my proofreader. There are also many other Spiritual Christians and friends (who are not yet spiritual) that thankfully help sharpen or encourage what is being refined and reforged through us with the messages we are publishing. Better yet, these writings are how we personally study and apply the Bible to our own understanding, while strengthening our walk with Christ daily.

— HOW DOES THIS PROCESS WORK? —

To explain in great detail; spiritually learning, applying, interpreting, studying and understanding Biblical Scripture is a life long and never fully ending wonderful journey of spiritual enlightenment that we share, (with whoever would like to learn with us.) All while, we spiritually learn from others until we go to Heaven with Christ, (hopefully 🙂) because we serve His Kingdom without expectations and remain humble to His teachings instead of our own.

To explain, all of this good work for the Kingdom (from a spiritual vantage point in the clouds) takes a lot of time writing and editing (as a slave for Christ like Apostle Paul) which provides a reforged truth that is clearly understood by spiritual Christians.

This is (as many spiritual Christians know) a constantly repetitive and never ending process that fully consecrates the knowledge of Christ to our heart, words, actions and our mind.

The greatest benefit of this (financially unrewarding) process, is that it uplifts our spirits (regardless of our circumstances) and is what we believe God means when He says, “live by bread (His Word) alone;” needing nothing but gaining everything in return. We believe that means gaining more of Christ (or THE TRUTH) instead of being distracted by worldly desires or needlessly wasting time on temporary pleasures.

Lastly, as you might guess, I do what I do (with all the crazy amount of edits I continue to make) so it’s not my words, but it’s His words that are refined (through me) by the Holy Spirit, with the help of the body of Christ and NOT teachings that are from my own thinking or self justified desires. Rather, these writings are my sacrificially made efforts done at a full surrender to Christ.

Why? because I believe “iron sharpens iron” and this is how God would like us to refine and clarify His Word into our own words (Spiritually corrected) that we can better understand; while holding true to the teachings of Christ. This is done so we can better understand our father in heaven and His greater purpose for our lives as individuals.

Also, doing this on a public platform, obviously subjects us to a lot of scrutiny, which we care little about because we are living to impress God and only God. Then, from this (great work for Christ) we have seen the fruits of our labor and they are good, VERY good 🙂 (imho.)

Still, whatever good fruit there is, is all glory to God in Heaven because we are mere bondservants to His True Gospel for the testimony of Christ Jesus.

We pray that makes sense?

All of the above ⬆️ is said for the benefit of the entire Body of Christ at no charge because we are not concerned with receiving money for doing God’s work. Which in truth, (contrary to popular incorrect belief) Kingdom work has no real ties to receiving money, unless given by donation from others out of Biblical obligation to support those called into ministry.

So, similar to a church; followers will cheerfully give to a Christian ministry like ours because they either appreciate the sacrifice being made for the Kingdom of God, have benefited from the teaching, have a heart and ability to offer assistance, OR would simply like to provide donations to fund a Kingdom mission that advances the Gospel of Christ.

With that said, I believe True Christian Ministries should be considered “poor priests” because they are not concerned where the money will come from and they do not desperately seek out every living creature on the planet to ask for a handout “with devilish guilt trips.” Especially when they don’t get the help they might’ve been idolizing.🤦‍♂️

Now, “if” we were to receive donations to our ministry; those donations would primarily be used for Humanitarian needs as helping others (who desperately need financial help) is our first priority, because we enjoy blessing orphans, the homeless and struggling Christians who need financial help to survive more than we do. (James 1:27)

The prayer 🙏,
May this bless whoever reads it
and fully hears the heart for Christ
behind its intentions for everyone’s
greater enjoyment.

Going further,

🤴 THE VICTORS CROWN OF LIFE 🫅

True Wisdom comes from God and flows Spiritually through the heart of a Christ Follower who’s at a full surrender to the will of God. Then God anoints His Messengers to preach the Good News of Christ, in whatever way the Lord of Heaven’s Army sees best.

From that point, the “Ambassador for Christ” shares the True Gospel of Jesus in a unique and effective way to ultimately Glorify God; but not the Ambassador or any human because only Christ Jesus is to be exalted.

The Bible says,
James‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭9‬, “If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him. But he must ask [for wisdom] in faith, without doubting [God’s willingness to help], for the one who doubts is like a billowing surge of the sea that is blown about and tossed by the wind. For such a person ought not to think or expect that he will receive anything [at all] from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable and restless in all his ways [in everything he thinks, feels, or decides]. (amp)

James‬ ‭1‬:‭12, “Let the brother (or sister) in humble (to God spirit and conservative) circumstances bring glory in His high position [as a born-again believer, called to the true riches and to be an heir of God]; Blessed [happy, spiritually prosperous, favored by God] is the child who is steadfast under trial and perseveres when tempted (to complain or lose Faith in God’s greater plan for their life); for when they have passed the test and been approved, they will receive the [victor’s] crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”

ROMANS 15 adds context this MESSAGE
“Now may the God who gives endurance and who supplies encouragement grant that you be of the same mind (His Spiritual Mind) with one another according to Christ Jesus,” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭5‬.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭16‬, “For who has known the mind and purposes of the Lord, so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ [to be guided by His thoughts and purposes].” ‭(amp‬‬)

James 1‬:‭27‬, “True spiritual ministry (or Authentic Christian Religion) that is PURE in the eyes of our Father God is to make a difference in the lives of the orphans, and widows in their troubles, and to refuse to be corrupted by the world’s values.” (tpt‬‬)

I enjoy ponderment of possible truth
— The Second Coming is Spiritual —
Written Sep 29th 2023

1 Corinthians‬ ‭4‬:‭20‬-‭21, Apostle Paul said,
“the kingdom of God is not based on talk; but ON POWER (and action. Then he asked,) which do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod [of discipline and correction], or with love and a gentle spirit?” (amp)

(Unfortunately, we usually require discipline and correction before we SURRENDER to God’s will for our lives and realize that His wisdom is greater than our limited knowledge. Ref: Job 5:17-19)

Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭19‬, Jesus said, “Get up and go
[instead of lay there and change nothing]. Your faith [or your personal trust in Jesus as your savior and your confidence in God’s power] has restored you to (spiritual) health.”

Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭20‬-‭23, Now having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God is NOT coming with signs to be observed or with a VISIBLE DISPLAY; nor will people say, ‘Look! Here it is!’ or, ‘There it is!’ For the kingdom of God is among you [because of His presence in your heart].” Then He said to the disciples, “The time will come when you will long to see the days (that you physically spent with) the Son of Man, and you will not see it. They will say to you, ‘Look [the Messiah is] there!’ or ‘Look [He is] here!’ Do not go [to see that imposter], and do not run after them [because the Messiah is in the Hearts❤️of His reborn by the Holy Spirit followers.]”‬ ‭(amp)

So, DO NOT put your trust or your faith in the things of this world, or you will be subject to suffer the Wrath of God that is Spiritually Unseen, until the Holy Spirit removes the scales of SIN from your eyes, that you were once blinded by. (Which is usually PRIDE before THE FALL.)

This is what Spiritual Christians (who are already reborn after their own Baptism by fire🔥) mean, when they ask you to REPENT of your arrogance or unbelief.

‭‭Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭24‬-‭26, “just as lightning flashes out of one part of the sky, it also gives light to the other part of the sky (like, holy spirit conviction felt in your innerself from guilt when you sin against God’s Holy standards.) So, [visible] will the Son of Man be in His day. But first He (like you) must suffer many things and be repudiated and rejected and considered unfit [to represent the Kingdom of God] by this [unbelieving] generation. And just as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be when [the second coming of] the Son of Man returns [which happens in the heart and life of the true Jesus follower.]”

Think of it this way,
Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭27-‭31, “the people were (freely) eating, drinking, marrying or they were being given in marriage. [All while they were indifferent to God] until the day that Noah went into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. It was the same as it was in the days of Lot. People were eating, drinking, buying, selling and planting [or in other words, carrying on business as usual, without regard for their sins]; but on the [very] day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone (burning sulfur) from heaven and destroyed them all. It will be just the same on the day that the Son of Man is revealed (to you.) On that day, whoever is on the housetop, with their belongings (and happiness) in the house, must not come down [and go inside] to take them out; and likewise whoever is in the field must not turn back [because the Lord is setting them apart to serve His Kingdom.]”‬

(Amp and spiritual clarity for application)

WAS JONAH’S STORY SO DIFFERENT?

His indifference caused Him to be corrected by God. Read “Rev 3:15-16” because I use that in reference of Jonah (and myself.) Like he was spit out of the whale after His Faith in God and full surrender was consecrated by that time of testing.

In other words, he was lukewarm (like I was) but after having his faith tested and nearly dying from his sin and rebellion from God. He was released to share the gospel with the Ninevites because his heart was no longer corrupted by sin.

Likewise, when we (as reborn Christians) step out of the fire, with true faith in Christ. Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abendego…. We are able to shine a light for “THE TRUE GOSPEL” that will save others from sin and teach people why they should NOT put their faith in this world because this world will betray them and they will also betray themselves..

So instead, we teach the THE GOSPEL that says, “it’s better when we put our full trust and faith in God Almighty because He never disappoints us when we understand that we’re supposed to learn to trust Him more from the devastation and struggles that we experience in this life.” Which is what keeps us strong at heart, no matter our circumstance.

When we realize the dynamics and supernatural POWER that this FREE GIFT of daily sanctification from Sin has blessed us with, through natural repentance, rather than forced obedience. We REJOICE with a “heart of gratitude,” rather than self righteous justification or agony from our self pitied thoughts.

We are then SET FREE BY CHRIST
to worship God in Spirit and in truth.
(John 8:36, John 4:23-24 and Galatians 5:1)

With that said,
I pray this brings the reader peace as this “potential truth” can help us finally UNITE as a GLOBAL BODY of CHRIST FOLLOWERS, instead of continuing to be a divided group of Bible Idolaters, who are actually sheep being lead to the devils slaughter house because they LACK God’s Armor. (Eph 6:10-18)

With that said, since the Ministry of Jesus is (personal) prophecy (Rev 19:10b) a truly reborn Christian will be OBVIOUS as their heart will only seek to serve Christ and nothing else and they are NOT in competition with other true believers because they would’ve been humbled to serve only God. Not LORD over people like many false religions do. (1 Peter 5:3 and Romans 8:1)

However, if what is presented here IS TRUE, please understand that it’s VERY IMPORTANT that we still anticipate the ACTUAL return of Christ Himself because that’s when EVERY PROUD KNEE will BOW, to the obvious POWER that He has over this LOST world.

( Read Ephesians 3 and 4 )

In Jesus name; for God’s glory, AMEN🙏
