DO WE BELIEVE
"And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved." Matthew 24:10-13
Believers will be deceived, offended, betrayed, be hated, by other believers...
"And i will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever. Even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him, but ye know him, for he dwelleth with you and shall be in you." John 14:16-17
Do we believe we are in the end times right now? That false prophets are deceiving many right now? That persecution will come, right here in our backyard of the United States? Do we believe these things are happening now? There are signs (Luke 21:25-28). Look up! set your affections on things above, not below. There will come a time when you will need to stand on the word of God. Can you? Will you be able to fight the good fight? (1 Timothy 6:12; 2 Timothy 4:7) We need to believe on Jesus to be saved, John 3:16 tells us this. If we do, then He is in us and we are in Him by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit can dwell within us. The Holy Soirit is God in the person of the Holy Ghost. If we are led by the Spirit we are led by grace (the divine influence of God on the heart and the reflection in the life). If we are led by the Spirit, we are led out of the domination of our life by the sin nature. If we are led by the Spirit, the same Spirit that led Jesus from the dead, dwells in us (Romans 8:11). That same Spirit that was in Jesus when he healed and did miracles, is in us... if we are led by the Spirit.
There is a time coming like no other in the history of the world. It will test all believers. To be ready, we need to know Jesus, to walk and pray in the Spirit. We truly need to get into Gods word so God's word will get into us. i urge you to download our Romans Bible study and get it into you. There is so much, 110 classes, one hour each. But the depth of God is far greater than even this. You can download these on the RAVEN International site . Class 23 covers the fear of God. Classes 28-38 cover Propitiation. Classes 100-110 is about the Spirit (esp 109 and 110). Romans Chapter 8. Fill your heart with the word... time is short.
