Isn't that something! All this time I was thinking the main thing was the Sabbath, yet if we don't know the God of the Sabbath, we have really missed the point of worshipping at all. What good is the Sabbath if you really don't know who you're worshipping? It's crazy that we've been so blind to this.
Thank you Nader may GOD continue to bless you and your family in your service to Him. We always look forward to hear sermons from you and Amed and those sharing the real true gospel, because we are on our own here who embrace this doctrine of Jesus and the Father. Keep up the good work brother.

Hi Nader, could you explain 15:26's image chart of the succession of metals. The iron and the clay? I've heard two interpretations of this. The first is that the divisions of iron and clay is the Roman empire, and the second is that it represents the Roman empire/Europe and the United States. You say it is "Alexander's kingdom divided". Can you elaborate on this and why not the other two views?
This is quite a unique perspective on the prophecies of Daniel, some of which I have been teaching for the past ten years ever since I decided to do a more dispassionate study of Bible prophecies in general. One of the conclusions I arrive at concerning the prophecy of Revelation 13 is that the image of the beast is a literal image that people will be commanded to worship. Just like how ancient Babylon commanded its subjects to fall down and worship the golden image, so will the subjects of modern Babylon be coerced to worship the image of the beast. Paganism is Satan's darling religion and every effort will be invested in bringing the world under its banner.
Steve Sterling - End Time Prophecy E-Course: the image they are coerced to worship is the trinity. The anti Christ is the false Jesus, the half man half God which' if we know our scripture.. cannot be so, as God is not man. Already you cannot 'call yourself a christian' if you do not believe in the 'trinity'. The Protestants daughters of the harlot are the ones enforcing the mother's apostasy for her! The whore drank the blood of anyone who dared oppose her and her cornerstone doctrine of the trinity. Men were burned, tortured and killed if they had any other open thoughts on the matter. Now the mother has infiltrated the Protestant churches infecting them with her idols she just has to sit back and let them do her dirty work for her. Now if you speak truth in the church you are gagged or disfellow shipped. You no longer have commerce with 'club Christian', cannot 'buy or sell' within the 'Christian' community. Real truth has been supplanted by tradition and philosophies of men. Speak real truth and you are hated and hunted, but this is truth in and of itself, Christ did tell us this. SDA corporation is not the remnant, she is the harlot daughter now, the remnant are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. Having the faith of Jesus means they have the same God as He does, and so keep Gods commands. Test if you are a child of God. For if you are, you will be experiencing a growing, deepening understanding of the BOOK. Spiritual things are becoming clearer as the lusts of the world fade. You should be growing in the grace and life of Christ, becoming less of this world and more of the next. You should be experiencing real love and joy of knowing the Father and the son, and through the living spirit, experiencing love for others, even more than you love self. All the fruit should be manifesting in your life - experiencing what peace really does mean, finding joy in the walk, even when the path is so narrow and you find few walking on it, knowing kindness and gentleness for others through being able to love, wanting to please God instead of self, finding self control over human failings of anger, contentiousness, fear and hatred. The fruit should become an every day reality as the spirit within you grows to be Lord over your life, for it is Christ dwelling in you that enables grace to abound, that enables self to ride in the back seat allowing the holier one who comes to dwell in you to do the navigating. The most shocking thing of this all is; so few of us are truly reborn with a new spirit in us..it can only happen if you truly fall on the Rock and allow yourself to be fully broken. This means to fully commit, like in the truest sense likened to marriage commitment - wholly, fully and forever. Pledge to 'Marry' ourselves to our Lord become one with him. It's only through this union that we can receive enough of the living flow of spirit to change who we are, to make us Christlike through our belief in him. To be made Righteous through faith. If we keep a corner of self ungiven, a little part of 'me' we do not want to give.. then we harbour the festering evil that is of our father, the devil. All of us, all our wants, needs, ego, has to break on the rock, for if you keep only the tiniest part, the leaven is enough to fester and cause the sin of rebellion to eventually break out all over again and you will never belong to God, not fully, and when the night comes you will not wake to have the light to lead you into the kingdom.
Amen, brother. To know God is to have everlasting life. Jesus is waiting for us to get to know him and therefore his Father cause in spirit they are one, Jesus having his Father spirit in him and that same spirit is available for us all if we honestly seek it. If we don't get to know Him in this life we do not have another chance and Christ will have to declare to us sadly that never did He know us so He can not give us His life.
Here is something you might want to add to your prophetic equation. The last four chapters in Daniel have been compromised and very few (if any) are reading it nor interpreting it correctly. Daniel chapters 9,10,11,12 are "divided" chapters and they they should read 9/11,10/12. Now want to know what all it changes? (or in many cases confirms) follow me...
+Nader Mansour How does this message foster a "revival and reformation"? Is it not that, historically, any revival and reformation among God's people was caused and sustained by tribulation and persecution...and death decrees...and/or the fear that probation was about to close and that Jesus was about to return. Daniel and John both grew in grace under captivity/banishment and various death decrees. The book of Revelation in concert with Daniel reveals that we have little time left, and that the "abomination of desolation" is very soon to be set up. When this takes place there will be 1335 literal days left to planet earth and Jesus will return near the end of that time period. The Book of Revelation clearly tells us just how CLOSE we are to this event... I believe that it is THIS information specifically spelled out/revealed in the book of Revelation, (when the reality of the truth of this revelation actually dawns upon us), that will cause a "revival and reformation" for it will be at that time that life and death choices will be made and God's people, just like Daniel, will have to endure much tribulation, persecution and opposition that will actually serve to cause them to desire to grow in grace and to ultimately prepare them, character-wise, for the second coming of Christ and eternal salvation.
How SAD & unfortunate that a presentation that is supposed to be on prophecy, becomes a hobby-horse doctrine of the Non-Trinity. It Is Written: Exod 3:13-15(KJV) 13. And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14. And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 15. And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. John 8:58(KJV) Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. The I AM is Christ - The ETERNAL Son of God. From eternity, like the Father, He has existed. This tries to explain too far ito the mysteries of the Eternal Godhead.
God wants us to study, why? To show ourselves 'approved'. If you examine just what this means..'show ourselves approved' you will understand God does not give His wisdom to every light reader, every casual browser. Instead He entreats the reader to "seek Him" not once, but over and over. And over. So we are to seek God so that we may have 'fear' of God. When you begin to study, you begin to understand the proper explanation of this word that was translated as 'fear'. We not only need to have a deep and proper respect, awe and to worship Him as the one true living God, but we are also invited to gain knowledge of Him. Knowledge of God is 'fear of Him'. All throughout the Old Testament we hear God's OWN testimony as to who He is. He certainly seemed keen for His people, His specially chosen men, great men like Abraham, Moses and Daniel to know who He is. Over and over He inspired or told the writers of scripture to not only know but to never forget WHO HE SAYS HE IS. God certainly inspired the patriarchs and prophets to write down and never forget that their God is ONE. If you get your bible out, instead of the weekly pamphlet, and use the online bible hub concordance, I invite you to study all the texts which clearly delineate where God the Father spoke to man, or inspired men to write knowledge of Him. You will quickly begin to see many, many texts that tell men who seek, that God is one. "I am one, there is none like me, I am a jealous God.., I alone created the heavens..there is no one else besides me..none other but me..The God of Israel is one.." God certainly made it clear to His chosen people who He is. I think you'd have a hard time to find any modern or ancient Orthodox Jew who would say God ever told his people anything else. God is almighty, He is God and knows what future events will be, why would He tell His chosen that He was a singular personal living entity if He were more? He knew the trinity would come and supplant the truth not long after Christ left this planet, He knew those who choose to be His would walk in the light that they were given. God reveals more as time passes, the scroll unfurled as men's study of scripture grew and grew He knew the trinity would be the mystery religion of the false church and gave The message to His son to give to John, the revelation of end time events. The whore who rides the beast reveals more than a apostate church who is drunk on the blood of saints, she reveals her God is mystery Babylon, it is in her forehead, it is whom who she worships. God knows we are only going to study His word if we are truly keen on belonging to Him, to seek Him. If we listen to traditions of men served up via sermons and books that are not sanctioned as His word then we will never have the measure of spirit to be His. We will be deluded Into following the lie, the traditions of men. You may never get the mark of the beast in your hand (what you do, Sunday keeping, or any other wrongful practise) but you will receive the mark in your forehead if you follow her cornerstone tradition, her mystery gods. Why is it that Gods people are only sealed in their foreheads? It is because those who worship God in spirit and in truth keep THE FAITH OF JESUS AND THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. You will know the Father and son, you will keep the Royal laws not because you know you must but through having the spirit of God himself dwelling in you and this from having the life of His son living through you, given to you through faith.
LatterRainPower144 144,000: You do realise that God was not saying to Moses that His personal name was "I AM"? Gods NAME is the Tetragrammaton which many approximate, in the English, as YHWH. This is The private name of the Father, the God of Israel. God is what He is, Elohim. And YHWH is His name. And where the translators obscured God's own personal name by replacing it instead the word 'LORD' is not only an error in translating Hebrew to English but was a calculated translation error that obscures who God the Father truly is. This foolishness about Gods name being "I AM" is nonsense and you will see through its subterfuge when you begin to use the handy online free bible ap called 'bible hub'. It has the Hebrew to English translation of every text of the bible. Almost always, In the OT when you see the pairing of the English words "Lord God" you will find that in the Hebrew, time after time - not ADONAI ELOHIM which would be the true translation of LORD GOD but YHWH ELOHIM. Gods personal name and what He is. The carefully crafted delusion has been Millenia in the making. Only God's very elect will be able to come out from its overwhelming lie, those that worship Him in spirit and in truth. Those that love Him and keep His commandments and the faith of His son. Those that are marked with His name by His spirit in their minds, knowing both Father and son, those who do not wonder after the beast and worship an image by having a mystery in their minds, rather than the one true living God. You will follow your church, your pastors, your fellow sabbath keepers blindly because you have been taught this is the way. Christ never tells you to do this, he implores you to rather pick up your own cross, which is death to this world, the giving up of self, of personal agenda, ego and FOLLOW HIM. On this earth, the man we call Jesus Christ, had a God whom he worshipped. Who he prayed to, who he remembered by keeping the seventh day holy to, who he was completely obedient and compliant to the will of. In heaven The Christ still has a God, whom he sits next to on the throne of. What foolishness the trinity is once you begin to separate the sticky webs of deception that try to obscure truth. God has a God whom he worships? Who he obeys and is subservient to? God is fully man and God? Yet God is not man. God came down and began a new life as a man? yet God does not change, nor has he a beginning. God died on the cross? yet God has no end as He is immortal. I am not saying the trinity seems good to men, it HAS to be a carefully crafted delusion to fool all who do not live God in the way God seeks us to. Only those who do not love truth and God enough will be tricked into thinking that God is not who He plainly over and over and over told us all He is. Only those who are sealed by the Holy Spirit of God in their foreheads will come out from the delusion. These are the days of the mark. Already those who do not worship a triunity are being prevented from 'commerce' with mainstream 'Christianity' who are all worshipping the image. The bulk of them have both marks, in their hands (what they do) and in their foreheads (who they worship) they worship a false Jesus, as the almighty God and do not keep the commandments of God, their God(s) is confusion, the mystery religion of Babylon the fallen whore who denied the one true God and commits adultery with her tri headed monstrosity. All of the world wanders and wonders after the beast. Only a tiny company, only a very few will find the narrow way. Listen to what Christ teaches. Not just the bits you agree with. Hear what the spirit says. Mens hearts are so deceptive, we can even fool ourselves without even knowing we are doing it. Only the sword of the spirit can cut away our dead flesh that attaches us to the darkness of this world, only us fully committing, to seek to love, to obey God and be His children can we hope of the true thing that gives us the access to His throne. Real faith, through his son's life, only by having Christ's mind in us can we hope to find the way. How do we have Christ's mind in us? By being subservient, willing, humble and obedient. He shows us the way. When you become as a little child by trusting in Gods good promises, the you hold onto every one trusting that Gods spirit will do the work in you, not you by your own 'good' works, but by Christ dwelling in you. The more you rest in Christ, trusting and praying and calling upon him to give you the contrite heart, to be like him, the greater the connection to him becomes. This is the win win situation we all need to experience. The more you trust seek and follow the more your flesh dies and the spirit in you quickens with the food it is being fed the living water that glows from the throne of The God and the Lamb. We become reborn in spirit (the true meaning of being born again) Gods Holy Spirit flowing into us dwelling in us, this us what truly ignites faith. All the fruit of the spirit should be beginning to be produced by the Holy Spirit if you truly have been reborn. Look for the fruit. Only the fruit can identify who has the spirit of God in them..Do you truly love God and have you laid all of yourself at His feet? Are you living to the light you know, being obedient, joyfully walking in His statutes as you find them being written on your heart? Do you love your neighbour and your enemy as yourself? Do you have peace? Are you resting in the strength of Christ's life being lived in you? Are you kinder, gentler, do you have self control over anger, lust, self? Is your faith deepening daily? Are keeping the commandments of God a joy and not a burden? Are you turning from the love of the things of this world and loving the things of God instead? Do you rest on the rock of ages or are you flipping back and forth in the current of disbelief, questioning God, not trusting, leaning on your own abilities, relying on self instead of allowing God to convict and change you? Be brutally honest with yourself. The hardest thing a man will ever do is to see what he truly is. Like I said earlier, our hearts are so deceptive, that we will believe the lie rather than cutting away our flesh to expose our inner nature. When my agenda was exposed it was enough to make me cringe. All was for self. All my good works were for self, to make me feel good, look good. Not much was done through pure selfless love. In our fallen state this is what we are. Self righteous, self seeking, sanctimonious white washed tombs. Looking good on the outside but inside full of what kills us, ego, pride, selfishness. We cannot even see it fully until we know what true love is. The selfless live of the Father who suffered us His beloved son. The agape love of the son obedient to the death. When you even get a tiny taste of that living spirit in you it leaves you craving to know more. I can tell you it is not us who is good, it is the spirit ofGod in us that changes our heart so we want more of him in us to enable us walk in his paths of righteousness. For anyone who is seeking, it's worth the effort, if you are adrift, know that there is a rock to anchor on, if your faith is tenuous, if it sweeps back and forth in the currents of worldliness, lust of the flesh, seek to connect to the rock. Your will, your commitment has to be fully given to finding God, to belonging to Him. Your self has to die (daily if need be ) and seeking to belong to God should be your primary goal not watching tv, not sports, not music or dancing or worldly pursuits. I know this is the hardest thing I have ever had to do..But we all must. We cannot have to spirits in control of us or we are like a horse being guided by two riders, each bent on going in opposing directions. The battle for control will always be won by the will that is given the mastering hand. If self is master - it wins and the horse heads for the easy broad highway, but If God's spirit has the mastering hand, the horse carefully picks its way along the narrow path. No matter how slow nor tough the going is, the joy of having the true and sure hand of God on the reins is enough. Gods spirit dwelling in us, guides us. From this comes real faith as you can yourself see what a difference The spirit dwelling in you makes. Scripture and spiritual things begin to make perfect sense, your eyes see where they were blind, your ears begin to hear what Christ teaches. All are gifts from God. All are promises kept. The almighty YHWH Elohim truly is one God, He is a living single being, not a group or essence that calls itself 'God'. Whilst you need not heed me, listen to the spirit of God, seek God to worship Him in spirit and in truth, follow the son and you will know both Father and son and have life eternal.

Liked and commented! Maybe this is a little off topic but I hope to see another movie after the book of Daniel
Hey, what if we have questions?
Why can't you have a love session what we can ask and receive your answer?
Amen, brother. To know God is to have everlasting life. Jesus is waiting for us to get to know him and therefore his Father cause in spirit they are one, Jesus having his Father spirit in him and that same spirit is available for us all if we honestly seek it.

In most Sabbath classes they have a big spoon of those monthly lessons and we get it shoved down our throats and then they say, Eat this and shut up.

Do you ever answer your commenters
When I get a chance, sure
Nader, 99% of the time I say yea to what you say, but this thing about Nebuchadnezzar realizing about God having a son....
Not enough evidence.
The king did say he recognized the son of God.
Daniel 3:25. .... the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
Note: some bible versions change the word of God and read "a son of the gods"

It Is Written:
Exod 3:13-15(KJV)
13. And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
14. And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
15. And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
John 8:58(KJV)
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
The I AM is Christ - The ETERNAL Son of God.
From eternity, like the Father, He has existed.
This tries to explain too far ito the mysteries of the Eternal Godhead.
God wants us to study, why? To show ourselves 'approved'. If you examine just what this means..'show ourselves approved' you will understand God does not give His wisdom to every light reader, every casual browser. Instead He entreats the reader to "seek Him" not once, but over and over. And over.
So we are to seek God so that we may have 'fear' of God. When you begin to study, you begin to understand the proper explanation of this word that was translated as 'fear'. We not only need to have a deep and proper respect, awe and to worship Him as the one true living God, but we are also invited to gain knowledge of Him. Knowledge of God is 'fear of Him'.
All throughout the Old Testament we hear God's OWN testimony as to who He is. He certainly seemed keen for His people, His specially chosen men, great men like Abraham, Moses and Daniel to know who He is. Over and over He inspired or told the writers of scripture to not only know but to never forget WHO HE SAYS HE IS. God certainly inspired the patriarchs and prophets to write down and never forget that their God is ONE.
If you get your bible out, instead of the weekly pamphlet, and use the online bible hub concordance, I invite you to study all the texts which clearly delineate where God the Father spoke to man, or inspired men to write knowledge of Him. You will quickly begin to see many, many texts that tell men who seek, that God is one. "I am one, there is none like me, I am a jealous God.., I alone created the heavens..there is no one else besides me..none other but me..The God of Israel is one.." God certainly made it clear to His chosen people who He is. I think you'd have a hard time to find any modern or ancient Orthodox Jew who would say God ever told his people anything else.
God is almighty, He is God and knows what future events will be, why would He tell His chosen that He was a singular personal living entity if He were more? He knew the trinity would come and supplant the truth not long after Christ left this planet, He knew those who choose to be His would walk in the light that they were given.
God reveals more as time passes, the scroll unfurled as men's study of scripture grew and grew He knew the trinity would be the mystery religion of the false church and gave The message to His son to give to John, the revelation of end time events. The whore who rides the beast reveals more than a apostate church who is drunk on the blood of saints, she reveals her God is mystery Babylon, it is in her forehead, it is whom who she worships.
God knows we are only going to study His word if we are truly keen on belonging to Him, to seek Him. If we listen to traditions of men served up via sermons and books that are not sanctioned as His word then we will never have the measure of spirit to be His. We will be deluded Into following the lie, the traditions of men. You may never get the mark of the beast in your hand (what you do, Sunday keeping, or any other wrongful practise) but you will receive the mark in your forehead if you follow her cornerstone tradition, her mystery gods.
Why is it that Gods people are only sealed in their foreheads? It is because those who worship God in spirit and in truth keep THE FAITH OF JESUS AND THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. You will know the Father and son, you will keep the Royal laws not because you know you must but through having the spirit of God himself dwelling in you and this from having the life of His son living through you, given to you through faith.
LatterRainPower144 144,000: You do realise that God was not saying to Moses that His personal name was "I AM"? Gods NAME is the Tetragrammaton which many approximate, in the English, as YHWH. This is The private name of the Father, the God of Israel. God is what He is, Elohim. And YHWH is His name. And where the translators obscured God's own personal name by replacing it instead the word 'LORD' is not only an error in translating Hebrew to English but was a calculated translation error that obscures who God the Father truly is.
This foolishness about Gods name being "I AM" is nonsense and you will see through its subterfuge when you begin to use the handy online free bible ap called 'bible hub'. It has the Hebrew to English translation of every text of the bible. Almost always, In the OT when you see the pairing of the English words "Lord God" you will find that in the Hebrew, time after time - not ADONAI ELOHIM which would be the true translation of LORD GOD but YHWH ELOHIM. Gods personal name and what He is.
The carefully crafted delusion has been Millenia in the making. Only God's very elect will be able to come out from its overwhelming lie, those that worship Him in spirit and in truth. Those that love Him and keep His commandments and the faith of His son. Those that are marked with His name by His spirit in their minds, knowing both Father and son, those who do not wonder after the beast and worship an image by having a mystery in their minds, rather than the one true living God.
You will follow your church, your pastors, your fellow sabbath keepers blindly because you have been taught this is the way. Christ never tells you to do this, he implores you to rather pick up your own cross, which is death to this world, the giving up of self, of personal agenda, ego and FOLLOW HIM.
On this earth, the man we call Jesus Christ, had a God whom he worshipped. Who he prayed to, who he remembered by keeping the seventh day holy to, who he was completely obedient and compliant to the will of. In heaven The Christ still has a God, whom he sits next to on the throne of. What foolishness the trinity is once you begin to separate the sticky webs of deception that try to obscure truth.
God has a God whom he worships? Who he obeys and is subservient to? God is fully man and God? Yet God is not man. God came down and began a new life as a man? yet God does not change, nor has he a beginning. God died on the cross? yet God has no end as He is immortal.
I am not saying the trinity seems good to men, it HAS to be a carefully crafted delusion to fool all who do not live God in the way God seeks us to. Only those who do not love truth and God enough will be tricked into thinking that God is not who He plainly over and over and over told us all He is.
Only those who are sealed by the Holy Spirit of God in their foreheads will come out from the delusion. These are the days of the mark. Already those who do not worship a triunity are being prevented from 'commerce' with mainstream 'Christianity' who are all worshipping the image. The bulk of them have both marks, in their hands (what they do) and in their foreheads (who they worship) they worship a false Jesus, as the almighty God and do not keep the commandments of God, their God(s) is confusion, the mystery religion of Babylon the fallen whore who denied the one true God and commits adultery with her tri headed monstrosity.
All of the world wanders and wonders after the beast. Only a tiny company, only a very few will find the narrow way. Listen to what Christ teaches. Not just the bits you agree with. Hear what the spirit says. Mens hearts are so deceptive, we can even fool ourselves without even knowing we are doing it. Only the sword of the spirit can cut away our dead flesh that attaches us to the darkness of this world, only us fully committing, to seek to love, to obey God and be His children can we hope of the true thing that gives us the access to His throne. Real faith, through his son's life, only by having Christ's mind in us can we hope to find the way.
How do we have Christ's mind in us? By being subservient, willing, humble and obedient. He shows us the way. When you become as a little child by trusting in Gods good promises, the you hold onto every one trusting that Gods spirit will do the work in you, not you by your own 'good' works, but by Christ dwelling in you.
The more you rest in Christ, trusting and praying and calling upon him to give you the contrite heart, to be like him, the greater the connection to him becomes. This is the win win situation we all need to experience. The more you trust seek and follow the more your flesh dies and the spirit in you quickens with the food it is being fed the living water that glows from the throne of The God and the Lamb. We become reborn in spirit (the true meaning of being born again) Gods Holy Spirit flowing into us dwelling in us, this us what truly ignites faith. All the fruit of the spirit should be beginning to be produced by the Holy Spirit if you truly have been reborn.
Look for the fruit. Only the fruit can identify who has the spirit of God in them..Do you truly love God and have you laid all of yourself at His feet? Are you living to the light you know, being obedient, joyfully walking in His statutes as you find them being written on your heart? Do you love your neighbour and your enemy as yourself? Do you have peace? Are you resting in the strength of Christ's life being lived in you? Are you kinder, gentler, do you have self control over anger, lust, self? Is your faith deepening daily? Are keeping the commandments of God a joy and not a burden? Are you turning from the love of the things of this world and loving the things of God instead? Do you rest on the rock of ages or are you flipping back and forth in the current of disbelief, questioning God, not trusting, leaning on your own abilities, relying on self instead of allowing God to convict and change you?
Be brutally honest with yourself. The hardest thing a man will ever do is to see what he truly is. Like I said earlier, our hearts are so deceptive, that we will believe the lie rather than cutting away our flesh to expose our inner nature. When my agenda was exposed it was enough to make me cringe. All was for self. All my good works were for self, to make me feel good, look good. Not much was done through pure selfless love.
In our fallen state this is what we are. Self righteous, self seeking, sanctimonious white washed tombs. Looking good on the outside but inside full of what kills us, ego, pride, selfishness. We cannot even see it fully until we know what true love is. The selfless live of the Father who suffered us His beloved son. The agape love of the son obedient to the death. When you even get a tiny taste of that living spirit in you it leaves you craving to know more. I can tell you it is not us who is good, it is the spirit ofGod in us that changes our heart so we want more of him in us to enable us walk in his paths of righteousness.
For anyone who is seeking, it's worth the effort, if you are adrift, know that there is a rock to anchor on, if your faith is tenuous, if it sweeps back and forth in the currents of worldliness, lust of the flesh, seek to connect to the rock. Your will, your commitment has to be fully given to finding God, to belonging to Him. Your self has to die (daily if need be ) and seeking to belong to God should be your primary goal not watching tv, not sports, not music or dancing or worldly pursuits.
I know this is the hardest thing I have ever had to do..But we all must. We cannot have to spirits in control of us or we are like a horse being guided by two riders, each bent on going in opposing directions. The battle for control will always be won by the will that is given the mastering hand. If self is master - it wins and the horse heads for the easy broad highway, but If God's spirit has the mastering hand, the horse carefully picks its way along the narrow path. No matter how slow nor tough the going is, the joy of having the true and sure hand of God on the reins is enough. Gods spirit dwelling in us, guides us. From this comes real faith as you can yourself see what a difference The spirit dwelling in you makes. Scripture and spiritual things begin to make perfect sense, your eyes see where they were blind, your ears begin to hear what Christ teaches. All are gifts from God.
All are promises kept. The almighty YHWH Elohim truly is one God, He is a living single being, not a group or essence that calls itself 'God'. Whilst you need not heed me, listen to the spirit of God, seek God to worship Him in spirit and in truth, follow the son and you will know both Father and son and have life eternal.
A worthy steed this "hobby horse"...worshiping the true God, as opposed to a false god, is what makes everything in scripture make sense.
