  1. When DEREK PRINCE explains the contrast between SWEDEN in 1947 to 1984 and then points out the changes in such a short period of time, is making the point that SIN is such a POWERFUL SPIRITUAL FORCE this is what occurs as a result. Furthermore, it explains that is extreme LEGALISM that first causes REBELLION and then the experiential of SIN leads to additional corruption of the SOCIETY. The argumentation here is how much work does it take to keep a society within these parameters. Therefore, all we are doing is holding back REBELLION. We need rebellion of society to purge evil not legalism who holds and contains it. We need to realise that the CROSS is such a pivotal issue it will bring out these two different forces. When we choose LEGALISM, Christ will judge us by our own works by his standards and achievements. You cannot come close to that point, your end is HELL. Why??? Because simply GOD is so HOLY any SIN is REBELLION and he cannot work with a SOUL that is infected with SIN. This is how GOD in Jesus Christ is a JUST and EQUAL GOD. He cannot unfortunately differ from the most evil person to the one who commits small sins. They are all the same in his eyes and therefore are dealt with in the same fashion. This is why the provision of the CROSS and the BLOOD ATONEMENT is our exception. SATAN cannot slander and point out, because unfortunately he wants to prove GOD is a SINNER. But GOD will not compromise with his name, title and his holiness. Therefore they have to be put in place. This is why it is easier for evil deeds to slander GOOD. GOOD has a greater expectation to maintain its position, but evil does not, and therefore its easier for them to SLANDER and condemn you as a result. GOD allows you to experience this in your own life, to understand how and why GOD operates in the way he does.

  2. It’s a shame Sweden is not the same god fearing country now they surrender to the Islamic law and forgotten there Christian beliefs
    God has a plan for each nation and we must endure till the very end

  3. You may read a short text called the Present which is available for free on the website called Global Truth Project.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full picture of life for the first time so that you may stop being being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus.A life- changer!
