Do Not Be Offended During Suffering; Focus On The Eternal


The word of God tells us not to cast our pearls before swine. We are to be wise as serpents but harmless as doves. But we do go through suffering and tribulations.  It is part of the spiritual battle we enter into the moment we are transferred out of the kingdom of darkness and into the Kingdom of Light as a born again believer in Jesus Christ and an Ambassador of Jesus Christ here in this world and in this time.  We have an eternal home that we will spend the vast majority of our existence in and it is not here but with Jesus. Jesus said:

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.


But we do go through things here that are very difficult.  Remember the battle is not with flesh and blood:

Ephesians 6:12 KJV
For we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but with principalities, with powers, with the rulers of the darkness of this world; with spiritual wickedness in high places.


Matthew 5:10 KJV
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.


Romans 12:17-21 KJV
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.



2 Corinthians 4:17-18 KJV
17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.


Proverbs 27:5-6
5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

James 1:19-20 KJV
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.


Perfect below means grow into maturity I believe and being of one mind is as it applies to the believers in Jesus Christ not everyone.  Some falsely use verses like this to say that we are perfect after we become born again or that we are to be in agreement with everyone's beliefs which is not the case. That is the argument of an antichrist or liberal christian that promotes the bringing together all beliefs to one religion which is going to happen in the end times and those people will be following a different gospel, different spirit and another jesus.

2 Corinthians 13:11 KJV
11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

2 Timothy 2:24 KJV
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

Matthew 5:38-42 KJV
38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

Tribulation develops patience in us and that opens up doors.

Romans 5:3-5 KJV
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

Female Covert Narcissism and Borderline Jezebels in the End Times

With the trappings of technology we see an increase in self isolation and a perception of reality that is often viewed through the lens of social media apps and tv programming. Even amongst believers that proclaim to be born again believers in Jesus Christ we see a trip into the ditch for many. But one common happening I've been noticing more and more since the Covid lockdowns is an increase in narcissism and pride in women in marriage in particular.  Satan has done an excellent job of killing, stealing and destroying people and relationships.  In particular the increase in female covert narcissism or some secular therapists also define these behaviors from women as borderline personality disordered traits but this one is particularly nasty.  If you are married to a woman that has this going on in her life you will likely experience what is also described as a Jezebel spirit.  The manifestation is focused on fulfilling of selfish desires.  She will do whatever i...

Be Not Deceived And Do Not Be A Fool

1 Corinthians 15:33  Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. Galatians 6:7-8  Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. Deuteronomy 11:16  Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; Proverbs 9:6  Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother. Proverbs 10:8  The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall. Proverbs 10:14  Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction. Proverbs 10:18...
