  1. Jesus will ignore all Christian denominations:
    Matthew 10v5-6:
    "I came only for the Israelis."
    Matthew 15V8
    These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
    Matthew 7V21-22-23
    21 / Those who tell me: "Lord, Lord, not everyone will enter the kingdom of heaven". 22 / Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did you not prophesy by name? Won't we cast out demons because of your name? 23 / Then I will tell them openly: "I never knew you, depart from me, you who do iniquity."
    John 8 V39-40
    39 / … They answered him: "Our father is Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham." 40 "But now you're trying to kill me, who told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham didn't."

  2. 4 keys:
    1. Be firm in your conviction that you are standing before the Lord.
    2. Be compassionate – demonstrate the love of God.
    3. Be fervent in prayer. Prayer brings about answers.
    4) Be fearless – confront the culture with the boldness of the Holy Spirit.

    Also, we need to ensure we are living for God alone.
    Don’t serve Baal (things/concerns of the world).
    Don’t be a secret Christian. Be fueled by faith.
    Read the Bible. Listen for the still, small voice of God.

  3. ***There is a Crown in Heaven awaiting all who faithfully share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and a soul is saved. ( "JESUS SAVES" below) 1 Thessalonians chapter 2:verse 19-20; Philippians chapter 4:verse 1. So too be Rapture ready to meet Jesus Christ in the air. "Maranatha!" meaning "HE COMES". Mark chapter 13: verses 33-37. The Apostles and saints greeted one another that way! Proofs:John chapter 14: verse 1-3; Titus chapter 2:verses 11 -14; Rev.chapter 3:verse 10; 1 Thessalonians chapter 5:verse 9. This beautiful crown awaits us. 1 Peter chapter 5: verse 4; 2 Timothy chapter 4:verse 8.

    This praise resounds across the earth: "Jesus is Lord and only He saves".

    2 Samuel chapter 22: Verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name."

    ***JESUS SAVES!

    God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world.

    Mark chapter 16: Verse 15: And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

    How can anyone hear the "good" news? Romans chapter 10: verse 17 Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

    Isaiah chapter 7: verse 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew chapter 28: verse 6.

    Isaiah chapter 53: verse 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. – IT IS FOUNDED UPON GOD'S LOVE FOR MAN AND WOMAN HE CREATED

    John chapter 3: Verse 16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

    "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans chapter 3: verse 23

    " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans chapter 6: verse 23

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

    "1 Corinthians chapter 15: verse 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

    THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER!

    And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 1 John chapter 2: verse 2

    Romans chapter 5:verse 8 But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."

    “For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians chapter 5:verse 21.

    " In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;." Ephesians chapter 1:verse 7

    Matthew chapter 26:verse 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." (the life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life)

    "And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews chapter 9:verse 22

    BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED

    Ephesians chapter 2:verse 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast.

    Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins and rescue us from eternal death. Because of Jesus' death on our behalf, all we have to do is believe in Him, trusting in His death and in the shedding of His blood as payment for our sins, as well as in His burial and resurrection from the dead on the third day, and we will be saved! John chapter 20: verses 24-31

    WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH

    Romans 10:

    9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

    10 For with the heart man believes in righteousness; And a confession by mouth is given for salvation.

    13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

    TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE

    Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We are sealed (permanently!) by God the Holy Spirit: Ephesians chapter 1 verse 13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John chapter 3: verse 16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation chapter 21: verse 8.

    Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. ”Romans chapter 5:verse 1

  5. Thank you Pastor David for this message I am listening to on 01.10.21.
    I will take tomorrow to write boldly what the Lord wants to say to my nephews & their children as they bury their Dad & Grandfather on Friday.
    It seems I too "feel" a bit more bold speaking up about God's LOVE.

  6. You can order the Devotion for as little as $10-20 it's good for a year and it comes once a month….yes. It's not the hard back, it's paper….I have enjoyed getting this and reading the daily devotions daily…hope this helps!!

  7. Thank you Dr. Jeremiah! This is a very strong reminder as I go to work and deal with all the issues in my life. Especially remembering as a famous saying would say: “Know when to hold and know when to fold.” God bless you and I would love to reach out to you anytime.

  8. For those of you that are Christians
    The quicker these evil Socialists wreck the world super power also known as the USA
    They will hasten the end of days
    Satan is without a doubt the sole driving force behind
    the Democrat party. The Nazis of 1941 and the Nazis of 2021 that have seized our government both parties are/were enemies of Israel
    The Democrat party thrives on anger and hatred. Without those two evils the Democrat party ceases to be relevant.

  9. https://youtu.be/R0DAnMXA74s Who is the rich man and poor Lazarus? If we interpret the Bible with the Bible, the rich man who dressed in purple and lived in splendour is today's rich pastor who uses Jesus’ name. These rich pastors think that they have faith and know the Bible. They don't listen to what the Spirit of Truth says but speak lies differing from the Bible leading the congregation to hell. Now is the time to stop all lawlessness, and return to the Truth while physically alive!!
