Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined - Mt. 12:25.
This post was published to remind you that every Church divides against itself will be ruined.
Beware of back stabbers in your Church, who create divisions among you with evil intent. They like to have reputation of their own and want to go away from Church to establish another Church.
You know who do this? Close aids to Pastors. They back stab pastors and take away believers from church.
They are interested in exalting themselves and eager to establish another Church, taking away some believers from your Church. By now they must have created among Church without being seen by the Pastor.
For their own purposes and identity, they want divide Church and believers. Is it lawful? Of course, not. So, don’t believe their words and support them.
The back stabbers say it’s god’s will to establish another Church. Don’t lend your ears to them. They use God to cover up their evil intents.
God doesn’t like divisions in Church. He likes unity and blesses those, who bring lost souls to Church. He does exalt them at proper time.
Therefore, brothern, if you find somebody plotting to divide the believers of your Church, intimate the matter to the elders of your Church. They will take care of it. Don’t neglect to take it elder’s notice. You’ll also be indirect responsible for the division.
You want to help the evil man to divide the fellowship of believers? Surely, you won’t get blessing from God for doing this. Instead, you bring curses on yourself.
Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us - 1Jn. 2:18-19.
Be like a pillar in your Church. Our fellowship must be Holy and united forever.

Man didn't evolve from monkey
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ - 2Co. 10:5.
God made Man. Man didn’t evolve from monkey.
For we are not unaware of his {Satan or serpent} schemes - 2Co. 2:11
Satan used Darwin to mislead us, in order to once again deceive us, so that God will throw us into hell {Sheol}, as he threw Adam and Eve on Earth. Darwin’s origin of species theory, which asserts that man evolved from monkey, was induced to our minds when we were at school. And it’s been inducing into the minds of our children, and it will be inducing into the minds of our generation to come.
It’s the most wicked plan of Satan to turn us from God to Science and to make us not believe in God ever. If we observe the world closely, we can understand Satan has achieved half of its goal. Science and scientist don’t believe in God. The scientists neither believe in God nor make us believe in God. They are nothing but Satan’s accomplices. See, them. They have been doing useless experiments, trying to prove God doesn’t exist.
Their experiments are anti-God: Big bang and still some Researches on Human origin.
They are living only to carry out Satan’s plan in the world. Their doctrines set up against God’s wisdom and his works like a wall. That’s why this post was published to shatter their doctrines and to reveal god’s wisdom to his people.
You have formed my inward parts, You have covered me (soul with body) in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works - Psalm 139:13,14.
Your hands have made me and fashioned me. Remember, I pray that You have made me like clay. Did You not pour me out like milk, and curdle me like cheese. Cloth me with skin and flesh, knit me together with bones and sinews? - Job 10:8-10
Your hands have made me and fashioned me - Psalm 119:73
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible - Heb 11:1-3.
If you still believe man evolved from monkey, you remain as the worst poor fellow in God’s sight and be thrown in hell. Hence don’t stick to the false theory. With this post God wanted to open your spiritual eyes, so that you can understand the truth.Believe it. God created man in his own image and with his own hands. Tell this to your children, relatives, friends, and to everyone whom you hangout.

Stand Firm On Your Faith
In these days, many belivers are going astray. They are forsaking god and worshiping devil{beast or serpent} to indulge in wickedness. They have gone to a worse state than before they converted to Christianity. Woe to such People. They chose the way only to provoke God and to go to hell.
Re. 13:8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast C all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the
World. According to Re. 19:20 and Re. 20:10: who worshiped the beast image were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulphur with the beast.
Stay away from them, believers. They make you fall down from your faith. Don=t walk in their ways. In the Old Testament, we see Solomon=s faith was shattered by his wives.
Solomon made an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt and married his daughter. He brought her to the City of David.
1Kg. 11:6 So Solomon did evil in the eyes of the LORD; he did not follow the LORD completely, as David his father had done. On a hill east of Jerusalem, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the detestable god of Moab, and for Molech the detestable god of the Ammonites. He did the same for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and offered sacrifices to their gods.
1Kg. 11:11 So the LORD said to Solomon, ASince this is your attitude and you have not kept my covenant and my decrees, which I commanded you, I will most certainly tear the kingdom away
from you and give it to one of your subordinates.
Solomon left his faith and provoked God, bringing wrath on his kingdom. His wives, who were, idolaters converted him as an idolater, and he became an idolater. He knows God=s commands and decrees, yet he set them aside under the evil influence.
So dear brothern, don=t listen to idol worshipers’ false testimonies. They drag you toward their gods, and you=ll leave the god of living. Stay away from idols and the idolaters.
Mt. 5:13 But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good
for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
He. 6:4 It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace. Land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is farmed receives the blessing of God. But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed. In the end it will be burned.
Therefore, keep your faith brothern and stand firm on it to enter into Heaven.

He’ ready to cone down to earth again from Heaven:
1Th. 4:16. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
1Th. 4:17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.
Re. 19:11 With justice he judges and makes war.
Is Heaven filled with Angels?
Yes. Lk. 15:10 I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
Is it filled with humans?

Yes. Re. 21:3 “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
What type of bodies do god’s people have in heaven?
To know the right answer, first you’d better read the scripture below.
Mt. 17:3 Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters — one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”
You may wonder how Peter and James identified them as Moses and Elijah, though there were many years of gap between their generation.
Biblical scholars give answer to the question. They say that Peter and James they must have seen the portraits of Elijah and Moses. Unless they had seen them, they wouldn’t identify them.
So, our appearance doesn’t change in heaven, but out bodies transform to that of Jesus body.
Lk. 24:39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”
1Co. 15:50 I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.
But you may wonder how can a man live without blood.
Jn. 5:26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself.
Jn. 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men.
Can god’s people identify their relatives and friends in heaven?
Of course. 1Co. 13:12; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
Do they marry there?
No. Mt. 22:30 people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.
What about Infants and children who die before they get baptized? Do they inherit Heaven?
Mt. 18:10 “See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels(their transformed bodies without blood) in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
Mt. 18:14 Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.

Re. 21:12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. Re. 21:13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. Re. 21:14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Re. 21:16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia [That is, about 1,400 miles (about 2,200 kilometres)] in length, and as wide and high as it is long.

Re. 21:21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass. Re. 21:22 I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. Re. 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. Re. 21:24 The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendour into it. Re. 21:25 On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

DEMON IN GOD’S TEMPLE
Re. 12:12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.
You’re in error if you think the devil {serpent or dragon} will come in future. In fact, he had come down to the earth before Jesus Christ was born, and since then he’s been doing evil acts, destroying man kind and leading millions of souls to hell.
Mt. 4:8 The devil {serpent or dragon} took Jesus to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
This above scripture states that the devil is here on the earth, on which it has authority. You may wonder how it took control the kingdoms of the world without doing battles. You’re not aware of its power. To know its power, you must read the scripture below.
1Co. 6:19 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?
2Th. 2:4 He{devil, serpent or dragon} will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
2Co. 4:4 The god of this age {devil, serpent or dragon} has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so
that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
This is the evil power of the devil. If he sets himself up in man, how come can he see the light of gospel of the glory of Christ? Therefore, in whom it dwells, the man/woman is it’s servant. And it is their master. With the authority, It’s been leading the rulers, who are pawn in its hands, toward destruction and sinful ways. This is how the devil got the authority over rulers, people, as well as the world.
See the way it’s been creating mayhem around the world: In the form of terrorism. In the form of wars. In addition to these, it is creating disputes between counties and sparking off communal, disturbances, regional difference, and racial segregation around the world. It’s been vanishing peace in the world and developing destruction.
Make sure it’s not you, brothern. Suppose you posses a weakness, it takes advantage of it and subjugates you. Then it leads you astray. Your name will be blotted out of the book of life.
Since God precipitated him from heaven, he is excessively angry with god made man mankind, because they are god’s children. He wants to take them {us} to hell with him. He doesn’t like us to go to heaven, which god created for us.
Dear brothern, we must be ware of the devil. Unless we posses Holy spirit, It won’t go away from us. Strive to posses Holy spirt and ask God for it. He grants us generously, and with it, he saves us from the demon and the demon-possessed world.
God bless us.

LOST SHEEP, LOST COIN, LOST SON.
From Saint Luke’s gospel 15th chapter: Tax collectors and sinners were gathering around Jesus to hear him. On seeing this, Pharisees and teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” Then Jesus Christ told them the parables: the lost sheep, lost coin, and lost son. Every believer knows well about the three parables, but a few know the depth of the precious parables.
The following matter is for those who want to know the depth:
Since sheep is an animal without knowledge, it might get lost in its way. Coin is a non living thing, it gets lost, if it has been mislaid. But why a man, who has knowledge, is getting lost in the sinful world? What causing him to be lost? The answers are lack of faith and full of pride.
The lost son from the parable has neither fear of god nor respect for his father. He asked his father for a share in the property. The father divided his property and gave him the share. The son took the share, set off for a distant country, and squandered his wealth in wild living.
We assume that he went to the distant country, thinking that his father or his relatives might interrupt his wild actions or try to stop him. As he wanted to indulge in the sinful life, he went away far from them. While he was leading the wild life, he didn’t remember his father, brother, and relatives. He was fully busy in the life, at least not visiting his father’s home one time.
Gradually, he ran out of money. After that he lost his shelter, friends, and everything. Then he hired himself to feed pigs in his master’s field. There he was starving. No one gave him anything. At that time he started filling his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating. In that terrible condition, he recollected the days he ate with his father at the dining table.
He didn’t remember his father before while he was indulging in wild living. When he had nothing to eat and nobody gave him shelter, he remembered his father and realized the sin he had committed.
He decided to go home and say to his father, “Father, I’m not worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.” Then he got up and began going to his father. On his way, he might have thought his father would abhor and resent him for wasting the money. Yet he didn’t hesitate to go to his father, as he wanted to admit his mistake before his father.
While he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him. He ran to his son, threw his arms around him, and kissed him. This lost son must have been surprised at this and tears must have seeped from his eyes to see how much his father loved him. Then he said to his father (surly, he must have said it crying), “I’ve sinned against heaven and you. I’m no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired men.”
But the father said to his servants (by then he forgave his son), “Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found.”
The father showed his abundant love on his lost son. Though his son asked him to make him like one his hired men, he didn’t do that. He got brought the best robe, ring, and sandals for his son, because he still considered him his son and restored him.
Likewise, our heavenly father shows unfailing love toward us, when we repent and turn to him, confessing our sins. He does restore us and pour blessings on us.
There will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine Righteous persons who do not need to repent.
When the older son came near the house, he heard music and dancing, and as he came to know the reason, he refused to go inside the home, because he was angry with his brother, who had wasted the money.
Don’t be like him, brothers. We shouldn’t hate or look down on lost and found people, who are accepted by god. We ought to love them and praise god for doing this. It is a sin to hate lost and found people. Don’t become last by being like the older son, who refused to go in his father’s home.
Don’t run down lost and found people. Show your love to them and treat them as your brothers and sisters.
God bless all of us.
