Follow the Holy One of God

pastorwardclinton1 Comment

In Matthew 10:40 [Jesus said:]  He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

As there is a way of partaking of other men’s sins, so there is a way of partaking in other men’s holy services.

We can be like Mohammad who, as the Koran and himself revealed, was a sinful man or we can be like Jesus whom even the Koran called the “Holy one of God.”

The old knight that clapped Luther on the back when he went to the Diet of Worms, and said to him “Well done, little Monk!” shared in Luther’s victory and in Luther’s crown.

“I am going down into the pit, you hold the ropes,” said Carey, the pioneer missionary.   They that hold the ropes, and the daring miner that swings way down in the blackness, are one in the work, may be one in the motive, and, if they are, shall be one in the reward.  So, brethren, though no coal of fire may be laid upon your lips, if you sympathize with the workers that are trying to serve God, and do what you can to help them, and identify yourself with them, and so hold the ropes, my text; will be true about you.  “He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet; shall receive a prophet’s reward.”  They who by reason of circumstances, by deficiency of power, or by the weight of other tasks and duties, can only give silent sympathy, and prayer, and help, are one with the men whom they help. – Dr. MacLaren

Choose you this day to follow the holy one of God for His reward is good, the sinful one’s reward is not good.

Islamist BHO

pastorwardclinton1 Comment

During a recent trip B Hussein Obama made to a mosque that is known to espouse “radical” teachings and from which more than one person has engaged in terrorist activities BHO droned on and on about how Americans need to embrace Islam.

Why would anyone want to embrace a rattlesnake?  Islam cannot save anyone from hell or open the gates of heaven; only Jesus, the holy one of God, can do that.

What a bizarre world we live in, BHO will console Moslems whom he says have been scapegoated and stereotyped due to the actions of terrorists in their ranks, but he’ll never console the Christians those fundamentalist Muslims are killing.

BHO’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, whom he threw under the bus for personal political expediency told us that he helped Obama embrace Christianity while holding on to his Moslem faith.  Sorry but real Christians know that cannot be done.

BHO claimed “Islam has always been a part of America” which demonstrated that he was either lying or he is ignorant.  Although it could be both.

Islam was harassing our seafaring merchantmen and capturing, enslaving them, and demanding ransom from the young nation.  The American Marines showed the world how to deal with Mohammedan terrorists by defeating them soundly in battle.  They also showed that allah would not help them.  The result was that for many years the followers of Mohammad tried to act like civilized human beings but today they are falling back into their old barbaric habits.  Unfortunately the PC cowards are preventing a proper education in civility being meted out upon the offenders and lives are being lost needlessly.

In this very day many Imams slander the holy one of God with their ignorant opposition to the teachings of Messiah Jesus which is not a very wise move especially since the word of God clearly teaches that Messiah Jesus is coming back to this earth, not Muhammad, who is clearly inferior to Messiah as can be seen in every version of the Koran.  Why do the Imams in the Mosques dishonor Messiah Jesus?  Do they disbelieve in Messiah?  Even Muhammad did not disbelieve in Messiah Jesus.

Therefore the man who is wise follows and obeys the teaching of the holy one of God which can be found in the Injil Markus.  The Koran claims the Al Kitab Ul Muqaddas (the Holy Bible) is not corrupt and for that reason you should learn the words Messiah spoke as an adult.  Failure to know them is a heavy stone of evil against you in his scale that outweigh all your prayers to Mecca.

God Cares

pastorwardclinton2 Comments

Matthew 10:29  Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

Submit to God in the midst of all trials for comfort and confidence for He is fully aware of your situation, even more so than you are.

Taken by the Master

You have taken great care with a certain number of roses; you have trained them up, and there they are, blooming in their beauty.  You pride yourself upon them. You come one morning into the garden, and you find that the best rose has been taken away.  You are angry: you go to your fellow-servants, and charge them with having taken the rose.  They all declare that they had nothing at all to do with it: and one says. “I saw the master walking here this morning; I think he took it.” Is the gardener angry then?  No, at once he says. “I am happy that my rose should have been so fair as to attract the attention of the master.  It is his own: he hath taken it; let him do what seemeth him good.” (C. H. Spurgeon.)
Matthew 10:30  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

God, the God of Father Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob loves me, even me.  Truly nothing is more astonishing than realizing the care and concern God has for His followers.  Jesus is giving His followers arguments against being fearful.  He is my God; He is my avenger: He will safely conduct me home in His time.  In the meantime He desires to show Himself to the world through those who are most Christ-like; therefore we followers of The Christ ought to be a bold race of people declaring who He is for we are truly the children of light.

Matthew 10:31  Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Do we not hold those things precious which we have bought at a great price. Count we not those things among our treasures, for which we make the most careful provision. Are not those things reckoned the most valuable things upon earth, which receive and give out again to our eyes the beams of light, the rays of the sun, as gold and silver, jewels and precious stones? Will not men venture everything, life and all, for them? And shall not, therefore, Almighty God reckon for precious, them, whom His only begotten Son hath redeemed with His most precious blood? Shall He not hold in exceeding value those for whom He has reserved mansions in His heavenly house, where they may abide forever?  Shall they not be to Him as pearls of great price, as jewels to be numbered up with joyful care, who, being conformed to the image of His Son, who is their light and their righteousness, shine in their works, and glorify their Father. (W. Evans, B. D.)

Matthew 10:32  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

10:33  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

10:34  Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

The followers of Jesus must not expect ease and comfort.  The PMA people want their followers to believe that followers of The Christ will not suffer setbacks or persecution but Jesus Himself warned otherwise.  They must put loyalty to Jesus before all other loyalties, and this may result in conflict and division, even within their own families.  They must be prepared for hardship, persecution and possibly death but in the end they will not be the losers.  In sacrificing the life of self-pleasing in order to please their Lord, they will find life in its truest sense (34-39).

All who welcome Jesus’ messengers into their homes are really welcoming Jesus who sent them, and God the Father who sent Him.  Help given to Jesus’ messengers will be rewarded as if given to Jesus Himself.

Tim Tebow vs Brucie

Tim Tebow.jpg

According to the Prosperity Gospel people like Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Prince, etc.  Tebow should not be having any problems.   Hmmm, Maybe Hagin and Hinn are false profits.

Now is the Time to Trust Messiah

7:1  Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.

Another “fact finding” delegation from Jerusalem had been sent to investigate the activities of Jesus.  Like big centralized government people they had an agenda and facts only mattered if they supported that agenda.  They accused Jesus of failing to follow their tradition.  To be fair, they could have been doing their proper job for which they should be commended but Jesus’ response indicates otherwise.

Jesus informs them that it is far more important to obey the laws of God rather than the traditions, sayings, and rules of men especially when those things violate the spirit and intent of God’s commands.

7:2  And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.

This does not necessarily mean that they did not wash their hands before eating; it means they did not perform the elaborate ritual the Scribes and Pharisees had created.

7:3  For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

7:4  And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.

7:5  Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

In verses 6-13 below Jesus gets right in their faces and reprimands them severely for rewriting the commands of the God of Father Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob who is the one and only true God.  Based on verse 14 it does not appear that He publicly reprimanded them at this moment.  They were expecting Jesus to tell His followers that they needed to change their ways in order to be acceptable before God, instead, Jesus tells this delegation from Jerusalem that they are the ones who need to change their ways, repent.  Likewise, some hadiths, if not most, are not acceptable in the eyes of the one true God because they are from corrupted men and not from Him.

7:6  He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

7:7  Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

7:8  For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

7:9  And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

7:10  For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:

7:11  But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.

7:12  And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

7:13  Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

7:14  And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:

All right now folks, gather around, and pay close attention to what I am telling you.  Clean out the corruption that is found in your hearts and minds.

7:15  There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. The Holy One Called Isa – Pastor Ward Clinton

Putting things in Proper Perspective

Mighty Messiah Manifests Miraculous Power over Material World

pastorwardclinton3 Comments

6:45  And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.

6:46  And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.

6:47  And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.

6:48  And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.

Fourth watch – 3:00-6:00 am.  Jesus could have calmed the wind from a distance but He chose to help them in the most caring manner possible and came to them.  But He would have walked right on by if they had not “invited” Him onboard.  The Scripture points out that He steered His course as though He would have simply walked right on by and left them to work things out on their own and we can be fairly sure that He would have because He does not remain where He is not wanted.

Some wonder where God is when they suddenly recognize they need Him without recognizing the fact that they had been for a long time telling Him that they did not need Him.  We reap as we have sown.

6:49  But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:

Ghost – A popular superstition held that the appearance of apparitions of this sort spelled disaster.  They were totally terrified!

6:50  For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

6:51  And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.

6:52  For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.

Not that they were opposed to Him but they were slow learners.  After all, this was a lesser “miracle” than the feeding of the 5,000.  The feeding of the 5,000 had already demonstrated Jesus has power over the material world. The Holy One Called Isa – Pastor Ward Clinton
