Are we doing what Jesus commands us to do?

Jesus' words!

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,
45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?
48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
~•Matthew 5:43-48

An example how to love your enemy....read about where apostle Stephen was being stoned to death. He prayed for them while being killed! He asked God to not charge them with that sin!

"When they heard these things they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God,
56 and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord;
58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul.
59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.”
60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
~•Acts 7:54-60

But most important of all is our Jesus who gives us the perfect example of how to love our enemies....when He was dying on the cross He prayed the Father to forgive them for they know not what they do.

"And when they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left.
34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”
~•Luke 23:33-34

Then I come on the internet and see Christians' comments on articles and many of them are full of hatred, condemning people to hell! Is that what our Lord Jesus wants from us? That is totally contradicting Jesus' commandments to us. Let us get back to the Bible and pray continuously, for all people, our governments, our loved ones and friends, our brothers and sisters in Christ who are suffering for their faith in the Lord Jesus, our enemies, therefore we shall be perfect as our Father in Heaven is perfect, just like Jesus said! God bless you and keep us strong in these evil days to stand for the truth of His word.

Backsliders

Let the word of God speak.  God's hand is not too short to redeem a backslider.  God Himself goes after His sheep gone astray. :) There is hope for the backslider.  God will heal them and love them freely!  He says so in His word!
Even though they left God, God never left them.  God still loves them and He is still calling them through chastizing them.  May our loved ones who are backsliders listen to God who is calling them to repentance.  May God have mercy on their souls and bring them back to Him.  May they again worship the Lord their God with their whole heart.  Nothing is impossible for God.  Let us stay in prayer for our loved ones. ♥

"Return, you backsliding children, And I will heal your backslidings." "Indeed we do come to You, For You are the Lord our God.
~•Jeremiah 3:22

 "I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely, For My anger has turned away from him.
~•Hosea 14:4

For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
~•1 Peter 2:25

Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say: 'Return, backsliding Israel,' says the Lord; 'I will not cause My anger to fall on you. For I am merciful,' says the Lord; ' I will not remain angry forever.
~•Jeremiah 3:12

Why, when I came, was there no man? Why, when I called, was there none to answer? Is My hand shortened at all that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Indeed with My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; Their fish stink because there is no water, And die of thirst.
~•Isaiah 50:2

Seducers

The quote below is words from the Lord by I guess a prophetess.... apparently the Lord is speaking about us trying to add works to His finished work.
"It is THE ENEMY'S VOICE that tells you that your God is not enough. He TELLS YOU THAT YOU MUST PRAY MORE, fast more, and give more."

I highlighted the words in caps because that's what caught my eye.  Since when will the enemy tell us to pray more?  Since when is praying more, adding our works to Jesus' finished work?  And since when is it wrong to pray more?
THE BIBLE tells us to PRAY WITHOUT CEASING!

Just the other day the Lord led me in His word to Ezekiel 13 where He tells Ezekiel to prophesy against the women who prophesy out of their own heart!  And here I see this woman's "word from the Lord", contradicting the Bible. :( 

Just like that prophecy given by Stanley Frodsham from 1965 said, they will first preach true doctrine, according to the Bible and then when they've won the hearts of the people, they bring in their false doctrines.

Quote from Stanley Frodsham's 1965 prophecy:
"I warn you to search the Scriptures diligently these last days. For the things that are written shall indeed be made manifest. There shall come deceivers among My people in increasing numbers, who shall speak forth the truth and shall gain the favor of the people. For the people shall examine the Scriptures and say, "What these men say is true." Then when they have gained the hearts of the people, then and THEN ONLY shall they bring out these wrong doctrines. Therefore, I say that you should not give your hearts to men, nor hold people's persons in admiration. For by these very persons shall Satan enter into My people. WATCH FOR SEDUCERS. Do you think a seducer will brandish a new heresy and flaunt it before the people? He will speak the words of righteousness and truth, and will appear as a minister of light, declaring the Word. The people's hearts shall be won. Then, when the hearts are won, they will bring out their doctrines, and the people shall be deceived. The people shall say, "Did he not speak thus and thus? And did we not examine it from the Word? Therefore he is a minister of righteousness."

See, they will mix in a little bit of truth with their lies.

Christians, we need to discern false prophets/teachers and we can ask God for discernment.  Ask Him, if you want to stand for the truth of God's word alone and no man/woman's false doctrine, God will see your heart for the truth and He will help you to discern, but we also need to stay in the Bible because that's how we will discern with the Holy Spirit's help! :)  I don't know everything!  But Holy Spirit is guiding me into all truth...slowly but surely, because I ask Him and I hunger for the truth.

Let us be wise as serpents in these evil days, yet gentle as doves.  The only reason I am posting this is to warn people.

Rejoice always, PRAY WITHOUT CEASING, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
~•1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

“Likewise, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, who prophesy out of their own heart; prophesy against them,"
~•Ezekiel 13:17

“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves."
~•Matthew 10:16

Pray always

In the Bible we are told to pray always. From the Old Testament to the New Testament...PRAY, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for us. We are fighting a spiritual battle in prayer. Each and every Christian is a warrior on the spiritual battlefield. Let us be diligent. Let us not slack concerning our prayer life, thereby giving the devil the opportunity to gain a foothold in our lives.

 O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen on your walls; they will pray to the LORD day and night for the fulfillment of his promises. Take no rest, all you who pray.
~•Isaiah 62:6

Keep on praying.
~•1 Thessalonians 5:17

Life is in the Blood

Just as the high priest sprinkled the blood of the sacrificed animal on the altar to atone for the sins of the people, so did Jesus' blood that was shed on the cross to atone for our sins.  But the high priest had to do that every year, whereas Jesus, our High Priest, did it once for all!  Just as Christ was put to death in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit, so we are put to death in the flesh and made alive by the Spirit when we believe and repent and become born again.  Jesus conquered death for us!
Life is in the blood and there is so much more life for us who believe in Jesus Christ and what He did.  Jesus gives us eternal life!  We shall never die.  Yes our flesh will pass away, but we have an eternal home in heaven.  We will be raised up on the last day because of the blood of Jesus that was shed for us to give us life in abundance

And as we who believe, partake of the Lord's Supper and eat the bread and drink the wine in remembrance of what He did for us, we proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.  The word says "WHOEVER" believes, has eternal life.  Like Jesus asked...do you believe this?  That's all it takes, faith.  Without faith it is impossible to please God. 
God does not want the wicked people to die, He wants them to repent and believe in Jesus Christ.

For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.'
~•Leviticus 17:11

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life
~•John 3:16

Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
~•John 6:54

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
~•John 10:10

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.
And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?"
~•John 11:25-26

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 
~•1 Peter 3:18
