Dear Bro. John:
Tonight’s reading of the chapter on “Government” from the Father and Son book was wonderful! I love the order of God — the Father, the Son, and an anointed pastor over me who I can trust to give me what I need to get to my eternal home — what I need right now while judgment is still tempered with the mercy and love of God.
I was listening to a CD today from September, 2009, “The Simplicity that is in Christ” and was overwhelmed with the love of God that I felt in it — where the heart rejoices to hear you say, “Jesus is my Friend!” I loved the feelings as every anointed word I heard stirred my Spirit!
I love sharing the excerpt below from this CD because the words are just solid substance from the Lord. It makes me want to stay in the light and love God with all my heart. It caused me to remember something your father said: “Jesus is only going to save his own.”
Excerpt from “The Simplicity that is in Christ” – 9/23/09
“Unity comes at a price. It comes at a price of division. Jesus said, ‘Don’t think that I have come to bring peace to this world. I’ve not come to bring peace but division. There will be five in a house, three against two, two against three, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law,’ and vice versa. ‘I’ve come to bring division.’ But what Jesus was dividing was light and darkness, those who had a heart for God and those who didn’t. But when He makes the division, then what is left is perfect unity among those who had a heart for God. This love and harmony also comes at a price, and it comes at a price of hatred. You pay the price of being hated, and you pay the price of hating what God hates. Jesus said he hates some things. Do you hate those things? If you don’t, you don’t have perfect fellowship with him. Are you entangled with spirits he’s not entangled with?”
On the way home tonight, I was thinking how good God has been to us all, pouring out on us His love and knowledge for all these years, and the Spirit asked this question:
“How long do you think the frailties of the flesh can be used as an excuse for not living a holy life?!”
Ohhh, Bro. John, I felt the indignation you spoke of on this CD when you said: “Is there any of us who really love you, Lord? Do any of us really understand? Is there anyone among us who really glories in Christ alone?“
God help us.
