I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. Matthew 3:11
For many years God gave me dreams of fires breaking out all over the place. And low and behold many fires broke out all over the place, even recently with what happened up in Southern California destroying many homes. And the interesting thing about it is how many of those homes lost their insurance days before the fires. And now the cost to rebuild is out of reach and impossible to get a permit to rebuild nor find a builder to do so. But I regress onto another topic of the fraud and flat out theft which is being committed right under our noses, but in a so called legal way. Or at least a very difficult way to put the blame on someone , even if you know they are doing it.
Now lately many of my dreams are about water, and low and behold water shortages are popping up all over the place.
Now my dreams are not really based on the above verse so much, as it is to show me things to come, so the Lord can prepare me and my family for it. The Lord always prepares me, even when he is about to put me through tough tests. For example when I first came to know the Lord, he told me one day when working out “satan has asked me to let him sift you like wheat.” Something he asked Yeshua in regards to Peter. And a few times additional, he warned me something major is coming, like right before covid and the lock downs and then again with the construction of the condos.
All of these events were pretty major deals, the worst one for me personally was the condos as the stress level was high many times. So high it gave me eye twitches. But through it I kept my focus on God and not my short term problems that were working out for me a glory that in reality did far outweigh it all. But now, almost 3 years later, I see a bright light at the end of the tunnel, a bigger payoff than expected and the suffering has stopped already. No more eye twitches. The biggest thing however is what the test showed me about me, and man kind. How so many new bible verses jump out at me with a deeper or different meaning than what I ever understood. But more so just a deeper understanding of us as men and how corrupt we really are. Showing me even to what depths a man can go to the evil side. And how to come to understand his protection and to not fear what man can do to you. How selfish and greedy men can be, as well as a deep hatred towards you when you only stay in righteousness and do not bow down to their evil demands.
And this is the sad thing, instead of it getting better where men are turning from their sin and repenting, truly being baptised with the water instead of a simple tradition with no meaning because the people do not repent because their religion tells them they do not have to, nor do they lead them to hearing and obeying the Holy Spirit, so instead the ignore or quench the Spirit of truth. Who is giving us the truth which will set us free from sin. And instead they remain in their sin. So again no repentance.
And without repentance there can be no manifestation of the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit cannot be in an evil man. Here is the catch, we are all evil in one way or another when we walk in the flesh. God showed me a deep evil in a few men through this condo project I never saw before. And in one man in particular he showed me or reminded me of the verse in Proverbs about the 6 things God hates. And in it these two men who gave me the problems actively practice 5 of the six. So again the Lord is showing me the evil in the hearts of men at a deeper level than ever. It brings fear in a person if they are not grounded in the Lord. When a man threatens your life, if you are scared to die. It freezes you or makes you react in bad ways with fear mostly. But when a man really knows God, death threats do not affect you because first of all we all know we will die someday. But second and more so, you are as ready to die as live. You see good in both. For example I want to live to see my son and daughters grow up. But I also am more than ready to meet my savior face to face. So if the Lord allows a man to overcome me and kill me, glory be to God. If God does not and protects me, even in miraculous ways, great so be it.
It is easy to say this when there is no threat, but a different thing when a man threatens your life and you do not have the Spirit. And it is the test which brings you to these points in life where he shows you what the test he warned you about, have done in you for your good.
Many times I point out it is the test which grows you. And God wants you to grow. So many religions push a god who sits up in heaven with no control over anything and is crying with you when the bad happens. And is there to bless you in your sin and accept you as you are. Where the truth is he expects you to really repent of your sins with a baptism of water. And then after he cleanses you of your sin, with your obedience to his voice, working out what he is working in you. Then he can baptise you with the Holy Spirit. For some reason man has twisted the truth to where a man can receive the Holy Spirit by a tradition like confirmation in the catholic church. Or you receive it by a simple sinners prayer. But they still will sin and it is OK with God. But the truth is not that at all. It takes a tremendous amount of effort and sacrifice to grow into a Holy man where the Holy Spirit can live in you and direct your paths.
These religious whore church systems are the reason for the evil men in this world. By allowing sin in the church system and teaching it is OK and normal and God forgives it all as long as you do A, B and C. With A, B and C being different from one whore to the other. It goes completely against the will of God. And there is no way to be righteous in this way. Only through the son, the Lord Yeshua can you find perfection and righteousness and Holiness.
A lot of confusion comes in because of false teachings, but also because the sin in men varies from minor and mostly not noticeable, to men like hitler. So we tend to think there is some sort of line with sin that we can commit without losing our salvation. Yet no man knows what that line is?
We think because a man kills another man that is the worst, but is it? We do not think our sin is worthy of hell, but another man is. If a man goes to jail for murder he is going to hell. We assume hitler is in hell and probably is. But what if he truly repented before he died?
Yeshua said of the woman who had committed adultery crying and washing the feet of Jesus with her tears, ‘he who sins little is forgiven little, but he who sins a lot is forgiven a lot.’ In other words when you see yourself as God sees you, you know who you are and how bad you are. And the more bad you were and knowing the Lord Yeshua took blows to his body and hung on the cross for those sins to be forgiven. If you really understand this concept. Then you do not compare your sins with the other guys. You focus on your own sins and seek true forgiveness and true repentance.
With that said, you will never again judge a man as you used to. Before the Spirit, we judge like a murder for sure is going to hell no matter what he does. Or so and so is worse than me, so they will be in hell but I will go to heaven because I never did what they did and I am a good person.
On the other hand, when the Lord’s light shines in you, then you see who you are in the flesh and what you need to repent of. But he also will show you what is in men in general, as he did with my test with the men and the condos. God also showed me with the other owners some things about how one man can create problems with his comments and lies against you. For a few months everyone was against me like I was trying to screw them all over, and slowly they all figured it out, and it speeded up when he threatened to kill me and broke into our utility room. That really quickly changed the minds of the people.
Even in seeing the depths of the evil in the hearts of these men at that level. I still would never say they are going to hell. I would say they will if they never repent and turn from their ways and the suffering they will experience in hell will be much worse than the suffering of the people who keep most of the law. A man’s punishment will be according to his works in hell. So for example assuming hitler never repented, he is really paying a price. Verses say the rich young ruler who kept the law since a child, but walked away from the Lord sad.
I know many “christains” who think they are saved, and some even try hard to not sin and obey the law. And their works are better than most people, but they still sin and openly say so, because they see no way to not sin. No matter what they try it does not work. But then they never tried the Lord’s way and that is why it does not work. And again because of false doctrine they think they have the Spirit and salvation even though they don’t and their works show it.
The thing is we all have chances to truly repent. Most sadly never do and end up staying in the sin and dysfunction of their choices, making life bad and salvation a no go. God’s way is to repent, he shows you what to repent of and then it is up to you to do so. If you keep making the changes he shows you to make, he leads you into all righteousness. If you choose not to, you remain in your sin. Most remain in their sin, partially because they are told they will never defeat sin so why try. But also because most take the easy way out in life, the wide path which leads to destruction and death.
I can say I have taken the narrow path, and it is lonely and very few take it. It works out in all my life, from my physical health, to wealth, to my career, and mostly to my Spiritual life. The narrow path is amazing, but it requires a serious dedication to the Lord and his ways no matter the cost. But it is worth it.
