“Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is…”

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.”

Yeshua, Jesus the Lord and Son of God replying to His accusers after healing the greatly infirmed man of 38 years at the pool of Bethesda — John 5:24-27 — King James Version

I want to ask some very pointed and serious questions here and have all readers answer each question. Not to me, as that does not matter — but in their hearts, spirits, souls, and minds — in their consciousness which does matter. What does matter between life and death. Eternal life —- or eternal death. Theirs. Each individuals persons. Where the priorities ought to lie — not in self-will, not in selfishness, not in self as the world only knows it and worships it, but in self according to the inerrant word of God.

Each self — each individual has been, is, and will be accountable and responsible. None with any excuses whatsoever. In this age of lying and excuse making and laziness and self-worship and denial and popping a pill for any thought of reality entering into the heart and mind I realize it is going to be very traumatic for many this being held accountable and no excuses the truth shall be known and there is no hedging, no gray areas, no excuses accepted. Very traumatic indeed!

First question I am asking and want all to think deeply on and in their hearts reveal, “yes, I believe” or “no, I do not believe.”

Do you believe the complete, whole word of God? Do you believe it to be inerrant? God-breathed — meaning it is the Spirit of God working in each man, moving each man’s hand and spirit to write every precise word as directed by God Himself? With the word of God telling us God is Spirit (see John 4:24)?

Do you believe in the virgin birth of Jesus of Nazareth, of the lineage of King David, as prophesized throughout the word of God?

Do you believe Yeshua, Jesus is —not was — IS since He always has been, without beginning, without end, and His time on earth taking the form of a man while being part of the Godhead was only a blink of an eye compared to all of eternity — resurrected from the dead after being in the tomb for 3 days? And now on the right hand of the throne of God as Intercessor for the saints?

Do you believe Jesus was spotless, blameless, without sin?

Do you believe Jesus was a Jew and not a Christian? Not a Catholic? Not of any denomination of man?

If you do not believe these things — and more — all that is contained within the living word of God — why do you not believe?

Are the fallacies, the sorely lacking philosophies, the ever-changing ideologies and theories of men and women providing the answers in your life? Providing a solid foundation you can build your life upon? Assured? Resolute?

The hour is coming — and now is.

It is time to commit. To believe or not believe. To live and practice and grow. To stop running in place. To stop going backward — to stop running period, or standing still sinking into the quagmire of worldly life and all its lies, confusion, vagaries, illusions, delusions — and immanent death.

Seek life.

Seek the truth.

Determine once and for all who it is you are going to serve — and there are only 2 options.

We all either serve this world and its prince for a season — Satan.

Or we determine to serve the Lord. Not concerned with how the world views us. Not concerned with being popular, or trendy, or liked, or admired by the people and institutions of this world all of which are fleeting and temporary.

The hour is coming — and now is —

to chose a path to walk.

And if you chose to walk on the path alongside God the Father and Jesus the Lord then stand tall, be bold, walk continually and do not fall, do not remove yourself from the path, from the Light, the Truth, and the Way —

for none of us knows what the next hour holds.

I pray you take hold of the mercy, the grace, the salvation, the truth which will never leave you or let you down — and that you take hold of the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Lord and of the inerrant word of God and make them the food and water and sustenance and fabric of your daily life.

No excuses.

None hold up, none hold water as the saying goes. There is none with excuse.

No remaining as a drooling, whimpering, crawling, defiling your diapers babe only able to survive on milk.

Stand! Walk! Grow in the Lord!

Become mature and strong in the faith for all your days — for the times are coming when if a person is a true believer and builds within them a strong impenetrable foundation — a fortress built of the word of God — nothing they will encounter, no trial, no tribulation, no travail, no suffering can deter and take them away from the Lord.

Become as mature and strong as the Apostle Peter, as the Apostle Paul, as all the apostles and prophets.

Become as mature and strong as Yeshua, Jesus the Lord since we profess to be crucified with Him and He is in us and we in Him as Scripture tells us.

Lean upon the Lord. Place all your trust within God the Father and Jesus the Lord — and nothing in this temporary life which comes your way can defeat you, kill you, take your spirit or your soul!

The hour is coming — and now is —

to choose.

Then to live and practice.

All ways. All your days. Thankful to God our Father always, in all things.
