I am here with my good brother John and my wife and I just flew out from California to
Ohio where we are not visiting with them and we are very exited to be here and to be sharing
our lives with them. We wanted to make a video about true fellowship and what the true church
is because you know where I live there are many churches and there's a church not far
from where I live at all, yet to have someone actually follows Jesus and to have true fellowship
is very scarce because there are so few people that actually follow Jesus and actually we
got here with my brother and sisters in the Lord and there's a church right down, right
down the sidewalk, and people may wonder why did you travel you know thousands of miles?
(I don't now if it's thousands of miles) Probably a couple thousand miles..." how far it is?
but at any rate it's a long distance... and people might think "There's a church right
around the corner where you live..." and tell them about the churches just right here...
Yes there's a church just actually one house down from where I live and there are multiple
churches in this neighborhood. But my wife and I have yet to find any organization for
sure or any people that are truly following Jesus, they are just offering false praise
to a false god that they have created with their own imagination. So we are just so thankful
to have brother Andrew here and his wife Marilee. We picked them up at the airport Monday night
and my wife and I have just been praying to have fellowship with other brothers and sisters
because you know we love Jesus, we have been set apart He has called us out of the harlot
church system, He has called us out away from these places that are making merchandise out
of the Lord but are offering false praise to their false god, they are serving. So,
for them to be here is almost like a dream because fellowship with others that truly
love Jesus and love Jesus and obey Him and practice righteousness and not sin is so rare
these days that it's almost like it doesn't even EXIST.... The churches are APOSTATE and
it's interesting because we have been able to send shirts out to hundreds of people that
give testimony of JESUS and one of them is like the one I'm wearing here that say; JESUS
IS THE WAY NOT CHURCH, and you know people will say; "Well church is God's HOME" and
they say that and they are DECEIVED, but it is also true, BUT the TRUE church is the body
of Christ, they are those who actually follow Jesus and obey HIM, but the churches today
that are buildings that are 501c3 or even the gatherings of people that get together,
they are ALL going apostate, they are STUCK IN SIN, we call them the "Babylon Church"
because they are stuck in bondage and it is SO rare to actually meet and be with other
people who ARE part of the Body of Christ, that follow Jesus!... Amen, Ya, on the way
home from the airport we were about half way home on the highway leaving Cincinnati and
I asked the brother and sister to look over at this church, was lit up, there were a couple
of them actually, one of them was a "4 Corners Church" and I said that is true, you know
that's the 4 corners within their box. And there was another church that just looked
like an entertainment center, and that's what people are looking for, they're not looking
for true fellowship because they do NOT have fellowship with Jesus... It's terrible, what
would you call that, entertainment, church is terrible entertainment, and I started thinking
you know these people are just up there on stage with their guitars and they are entertaining
these people sitting in pews or in chairs, and it is TERRIBLE entertainment. IF you are
going to be entertained might as well go to football game, if you want a BIG gathering
of PEOPLE, you could go anywhere, NOT to a church, church is terribly boring entertainment.
BUT MORE than that they're NOT really following Jesus, they are following a man up on the
stage and it's apostate it's religion. God calls it DEAD RELIGION. So you know people
think that I am craze to travel and actually see other brothers and sisters and they don't
understand the enjoyment that true brothers and sisters have together when they come together
because they actually have fellowship with the Living GOD, with JESUS... Amen, Amen,
Yes, it's wonderful that my brother truly loves Jesus and I know that His wife truly
loves Jesus and all that I desire to do is to be pleasing to Jesus and I know that is
what my brother wants to do is be pleasing to Jesus... What one of the things that we
did want to talk about also is, there is a deception in the churches, and NOT just churches
that are organized churches like 501c3, see a lot of churches they think they have to
be accredited almost or approved by the government, so they get their 501c3, their tax exempt
status, and that is ONE deception, BUT also what we have been seeing is a growing of "Home
Churches" and people think that it is all great and wonderful, but we have noticed,
because we have also done home church and been in home church, and that is the home
churches are JUST as apostate because they are the SAME people who have left the churches
because they realized the problem, but then they started another apostate church right
in their own house. The problem is that they haven't truly come to JESUS, their heart is
still with CHURCH, it is not with Jesus. And the true church is NOT a building and it is
not your house it is not the people in the house, but it is those people specifically
that are IN JESUS CHRIST that are truly obeying Him and living for Him, so it's not about
home church, it's not about a church building, it's not about a 501c3 but it is about fellowship
with Jesus, and actually we wanted to read you a passage about this because... you can
tell them about this passage, how much we get this, with people telling us to NOT GIVE
UP THE FELLOWSHIP... O, ya, every time, you know my wife and I when we go out, or when
I'm at work or just anywhere I go, the first thing that anybody asks me is "well what church
do you belong to." Or they ask you about your ministry or "Where do you fellowship?"...
and then if you say to them you follow Jesus, we belong to Jesus, then they think you are
crazy and they say you have to belong to a church, that's where God resides... It's a
BIG deception. And you know, there's this one verse that everyone quotes over and over
again to prove to you to manipulate you to get back to the apostate church, and it's
this in Hebrews. Sorry if I cut you off.. No No you're fine, absolutely brother... No,
but um... Absolutely...But this right here is Hebrews 10 and I want to read more than
just that one section there. I'm going to start in verse 19 it says; "Therefore brethren
having boldness to enter the holiest by the BLOOD of Jesus, by a new and living way which
HE consecrated for us through the veil which is HIS FLESH, and having a high priest over
the house of GOD, let us draw near with a true heart and full assurance of faith having
our spirit's sprinkled from an EVIL conscience, and our bodies washed with PURE water. Let
us HOLD FAST to the confidence to our hope without wavering for HE who promised is faithful
and let us consider one another, in order to stir up LOVE and GOOD WORKS, NOT forsaking
the assembly of ourselves together as the manner of some, but exhorting one another,
and so much MORE as we see the day approaching. For if we sin willfully after we have received
the knowledge of the truth there NO LONGER REMAINS a sacrifice for sins but a certain
fearful expectation of judgement and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.
Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of 2 or 3 witnesses.
Of how much worse punishment do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled
the Son of God underfoot, counted the Blood of the Covenant, which he was sanctified a
COMMON THING and INSULTED THE SPIRIT OF GRACE." ... And it's only this one verse "Don't give
up the fellowship that they quote, but they REJECT to see that the TRUE fellowship are
those that have fellowship with JESUS. They don't read the verses before it or after.
They don't read the verses talking about stirring up love and GOOD WORKS, but they like to talk
about that "Don't give up the assembly." But the question is WHICH assembly should we not
give up? Are we held to not give up an assembly that is wicked? That is full of demons? Or
not giving up an assembly with ourselves with our creator, Jesus Christ and with those who
TRULY follow Jesus. But those people, you know where we live, we hardily know anyone.
All the churches they do not follow Jesus, and people in our family our friends. None
of them really follow Jesus... Yes' it's extremely rare to find anyone that truly has fellowship
with Jesus. Because it's impossible to have true fellowship that is uncompromisingly righteous,
IF that person doesn't already have fellowship with Jesus. You know it's very rare, and we
are just thankful that the Lord has revealed Himself to us and there ARE SOME out there
that ARE following Jesus. But for the most part people are seeking to find a fellowship,
a fellowship of darkness that... that justifies their sin... that is exactly what they're
looking for, they're looking for a social club that they can be a part of to... to feel
good about themselves, that OTHER PEOPLE think how they do, but you know NOT MANY PEOPLE
HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST, there's a lot of people who have their OWN mind... right...
and they surround themselves with other people who think like THEY do. But we are to have
the mind of Christ Jesus... Right Right and they'll do a lot of good works, but their
works are dead because they're not doing them in Jesus, they're *** them being led with
their own carnal minds. So, we're thankful that other brothers and sisters do exist.
I have one right here.. and one right here... amen... but we had a question to, and sorry
if I keep cutting you off...no you're not cutting me off...but our question to people
out there on youtube or wherever you may be is; Is your fellowship really first with JESUS
Christ or are you a part of this apostate church that has come into the home churches,
that have come into all the world through SIN because they are in bondage to sin, or
have you truly stopped sinning, have you REALLY repented of sin, and come to know Jesus as
your Lord? Is HE dwelling in you, is your body really His church? Or are you a part
of this worldly system that is dying and is apostate and doesn't truly love Jesus. So
that is our question to anyone who is listening to this video, do you really love Jesus? Are
you apart of HIM and His TRUE fellowship and His true church? Or are you looking for other
things? Where you will NOT find true love and you know, your true relationship with
Jesus? Amen brother Amen Amen.
