Draw Near

At church Sunday the Lord spoke this to me: Even from the beginning I was the same. Before the earth was, before the heavens were created, I was the same. I am God and I change not. My mercy endures, my favor to them who love me to the thousandths generation. Yet who has an ear to hear? My Spirit says come, the Bride says come, all those who have ears say come. My faithful, my chosen, them who have sought me early: Your joy shall break forth as the morning, surly you shall reap in all that you have sown. But to the ungodly, the unbelieving, those who do make a lie, they shall be taken in the snare. I am the Lord and I will not forsake my people. No longer shall those who pervert truth stand amidst my people, no longer shall the wolves carry them away. I have long been patient, I have long held my peace. I said within that they might draw near, they might answer me when I call; yet they rejected me, they chose this life. Let it be heard that I am the living God. I will give unto every man after his ways. To those before me this day, do you desire truth? My truth sets you free. Drink of my waters, taste and see that I am good. Yet I will wait no longer. Draw near, put away this life. My judgment shall rest upon the slothful, all them who refused to enter my rest.

Romans 5
21That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Love, grace, and peace through Jesus Christ our Lord,
Austin

Truth Austin.

Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Matthew 21:44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

Romans 2:5 But after your hardness and impenitent heart treasure up unto yourself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

What man thinks doesn't matter. The "Great Doctrines" of man are nothing compared to the Spirit of Truth; the Holy Spirit leading into "ALL" truth. Men judging truth by their own intellect is like trying to empty an ocean with a thimble. Men judging those who have the Spirit of Truth, looking to snare them in their words, is the same as the Pharisees trying to trap Jesus. They resist the Holy Spirit, just like their fathers. Debate solves nothing because God is always right. We are all judged by what is the actual Truth.

I for one would rather trust God than all of mans accumulative intellect. God proves His words with signs, like tongues. Non-believers don't believe the sign anyway.

Romans 3:4...let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That you might be justified in your sayings, and might overcome when you art judged.
