For the past couple of months, my messages from the Father have been on a hiatus. Issues in my personal life almost became overwhelming, but what I missed most was doing messages that He has always provided. I do understand that Satan has thrown just about everything he could to try and draw me away from my Father, my Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The thing is, my wife and I have actually drawn closer in our faith in the Lord in spite of everything else. (ESV – all emphasis is mine)

There was a gospel song some years back that had the line, “When you don’t feel like praying – Pray.” And this is exactly what we did. Every day, and more than once each day, we would take time to ask for our needs to be met. True needs, not frivolous things. Step by step, we became closer to the Lord and could literally feel the love our God has for us.

Matthew 7:7 and Luke 11:9 state, “Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door shall be opened unto you.” It’s a faith issue in which we believe that our Heavenly Father cannot, and will not, ever lie.

Isaiah 12:2 states, “Behold, God is my Salvation, I will trust and will not be afraid; for the Lord God is my strength and my song; and He has become my Salvation.”

For some, it seems easier to just fall in step with this world and hope everything will get easier. However, we have Matthew 7:13-14; “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”

Our Creator knows our every weakness. It would be so easy for Him to just leave us to fall into whatever pit that is before us. However, Romans 11:33-36 states, “Oh the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and how inscrutable are His ways. For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been His counselor? Or who has given to Him that He might be repaid? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.”

A song written by William Cowper (pronounced Cooper) around 1773 is called “God Moves in a Mysterious Way.” Cowper’s pastor at the time was John Newton, who wrote the popular hymn “Amazing Grace.”

1.) God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm.

2.) Deep in unfathomable mines of never-failing skill, He treasures up His bright designs, and works His sovereign will.

3.) Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; the clouds ye so much dread, are big with mercy and shall break in blessings on your head.

4.) Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, but trust Him for His grace; behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face.

5.) His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour; the bud may have a bitter taste, but sweet will be the flower.

6.) Blind unbelief is sure to err, and scan His work in vain; God is His own interpreter, and He will make it plain.

In today’s atmosphere, Satan has convinced many people that God isn’t even real. We hear comments such as, “There’s many ways to Heaven”; “Jesus was a good prophet, but not truly the Son of God”; all religions worship the same deity”; and there’s really no hell.”

Numbers 23:19; “God is not man, that He should lie, or a son of man that He should change His mind. Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not fulfill it?”

Hebrews 6:17-18; “So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise, the unchangeable character of His purpose, He guaranteed it with an oath, so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.”

And then there is Titus 1:2; “in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began.”

In Acts 2:21, Peter quotes a passage from the prophet Joel (2:32); “And it shall come to pass that all who call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Paul repeats this in Romans 10:13; “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Our Heavenly Father provides simple steps to lead us to Salvation; however, some have tried to add to the “ABCs” to fit their own beliefs. Jesus had the most issues with the Pharisees and Sadducees of His day. He did not try to hide the fact that He was the Son of God, but they accused Him of blasphemy. Before His crucifixion and resurrection, even His disciples found it hard to completely believe in Him. He told them, “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6).

In Revelation 22, the final warning is given about those who would add to or take away from God’s word, yet people continue to do just that. There are warnings throughout His love letter – the Bible – about not giving the true word. Eternity in the lake of fire will be their destination.

If we “A” – admit we’re all sinners and cannot be saved through any actions of ours alone; and “B” –  believe that Jesus is truly the Son of God, a part of the Holy Trinity who came to Earth in the form of a human to be the only perfect, sinless blood sacrifice the Father could ever truly accept; and if we “C” – call on Jesus to forgive us and be our Savior forever, we will be saved.

Once we have received and accepted Jesus as our Savior, we will have the Holy Spirit live within us (John 14:15-19, John 14;26; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38; Romans 8:26; and many more). Even so, we will still be fallible humans until we take our last breath on this Earth, and as such will still sin. The Father has known this all along, and in 1 John 1:8-10, He provides us with the pathway to forgiveness when, not if, we sin. “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.”

Forever is a very long time, and all who were not in God’s will prior to Calvary, and all who will have rejected Jesus from Calvary to the end of time on this Earth, will spend forever in the lake of fire that was made for Satan and his demons, or fallen angels (Matthew 25:41). There are no pardons or reduced sentences from this judgment.

All who receive and accept Jesus as their Savior will not be at the Great White Throne Judgment of Revelation 20:11-15. Instead, we will be brought before the Judgment Seat of Christ, as given in 2 Corinthians 5:10-11. At this judgment, we will gain or lose rewards for whatever we did in our human life, but no one is condemned to the lake of fire here. We will spend all eternity with our Savior, our Heavenly Father, the Holy Spirit, and every soul that followed God’s will or received and accepted Jesus during their lifetime on Earth.

The Father moves in mysterious ways. He is willing to forgive any sin that we truly confess when we call on Jesus to be our Savior forever. The unforgivable sin right now is to take your last breath on this Earth and not receive or accept Jesus. The second unforgivable sin will take place during the 7-year tribulation for all who take the mark of the beast.

Our Heavenly Father forces no one to call out to be saved but will honor all who truly do so. We do not know the day or hour that the Trumpet of God will sound, and there is a shout from an archangel, and all true believers will be taken up to meet Jesus in the air. At that moment, we will all be transformed into our eternal, immortal bodies and have the mindset of our Savior. We will not enter the tribulation/wrath period (1 Thessalonians 4: 13-17 and 1 Corinthians 15:51-53).

Our Father wants no one to fail and is patient toward us right up to the last moment (2 Peter 3:9). However, when the time comes that He has determined, the dead in Christ will be taken up first, followed by those who are alive at the call.

Today would not be too early to call out to Jesus to forgive you and ask Him to be your Savior forever, if you have not already done so. Tomorrow could be too late. Our Savior is never too busy to take your call.

Hope to see you at Home!

On September 19, 2022, I proposed a diagnostic instrument designed to determine exactly how many reprobates currently inhabit the U.S.

My article was entitled “Examine Yourselves.”

It is theorized that scientific data is needed to establish a baseline of how many reprobates reside in America.  This baseline can then serve as a representative sample of degenerates worldwide.

It is the Author’s theory that the world will soon experience ‘The Great Falling Away’ as described in II Thessalonians 2:3, which is evidenced by the rising number of reprobates. Due to this observation, it was determined that a diagnostic tool needed to be created to measure this phenomenon.

This tool will also be useful in determining the approximate number of dead churches that currently populate America.

It is further theorized that the number of reprobates will directly correspond to the number of dead churches that infest the country.

To prove this scientifically, we must establish a baseline of how many miscreants currently reside in the U.S. Once this number is established, we can then do annual testing to determine if the number of reprobates is rising or falling.

If the number keeps going up, that lends scientific credence to the theory of the author.

There have been a number of criticisms from my colleagues that should be addressed. For instance, some researchers have asserted that this instrument is unnecessary since we already have an excellent diagnostic tool for determining the rise and fall of the reprobate class.

It is called an election.

Their theory is that all we need to do is tally the votes every two years, and if the number of people voting for Democrats continues to rise, that is evidence that the number of reprobates is increasing.

It has been determined by direct observation that the Godless Democrats do not build anything; they only have the ability to waste or destroy what has been created. No decent human being can observe the destruction of a pregnancy through abortion, our communities through illegal immigration, and our economy with onerous regulations and taxation, and then continue to vote for these people.

It has also been noted that Democrats zealously vote for people who repeatedly try to murder their political opposition.

Only a reprobate would do that.

The flaw in this assertion is that a vote tally is unreliable. It is not unusual for numerous Democrats to vote in place of hundreds of dead people, thereby skewing our findings. Also, they tend to vote more than once, which renders this method of reprobate calculation invalid.

In ‘blue’ cities, the number of votes often outnumbers the quantity of eligible voters.  Does anyone really believe Biden got over 80 million votes?

There is no way to accurately account for this high level of corruption caused by Democrat politicians and their voters.

It has also been pointed out that some of the items on the previous inventory are outdated.

For instance, one of the statements on the earlier instrument, to which the responder must report ‘true’ ‘false,’ or ‘not sure,’ is “Dr. Fauci is science.”

Many of the utterly deluded morons who believed this are still reprobates but may have developed the presence of mind to check the ‘false’ box. The ignorance of many reprobates still has its limits.

Therefore, I have decided to update this instrument to be in conformity with what passes for the reprobate mind after two years of careful study.

The Kansas Multiphasic Reprobate Identifier (Kmri2)

The KMRI (2) is a spiritual test that assesses a subject’s ability to distinguish truth from falsehood and right from wrong. It is intended to test subjects who are suspected of being dead in their sins or possessed by an evil spirit.  It can also assess spiritual instability that leads to a marked reduction in one’s faith.

The results of the administration of this test will bring us closer to determining if the world is experiencing a great falling away that is indicative of a coming divine intervention, as foretold in the Bible.

It is also useful in determining whether it is possible to engage someone in a productive conversation.

Please review the following statements and mark each as True, False, or Not Sure.

Question (30 Total) True False Not Sure

Aborting unborn children for the convenience of sexually irresponsible people (a.k.a. fornicators) should be celebrated as an act of courage.  True   False   Not Sure

The LGBT is a virtuous civil rights group that works for the good of humanity and has no interest whatsoever in preying on our children.  True   False   Not Sure

Learning words such as cisgender and gender-queer advances our knowledge of human sexuality and should never be considered as useless as learning Klingon.  True   False   Not Sure

Common people who have children and are seeking a better life for themselves and are opposed to living in a mud hut are bad citizens who hate the planet.  True   False   Not Sure

If you are a white person and you object to the constant attacks on your ethnicity, you are suffering from white fragility.                   True   False   Not Sure

Since cow flatulence is such a terrible threat to the planet, the moral thing for most people to do is to eat bugs instead of beef.      True   False   Not Sure

A person’s gender is determined by his/her feelings rather than genetics.  True   False   Not Sure

Under no circumstances should unbelievers be called to repent and be forgiven in the name of Jesus because the proclaimer is just being self-righteous (and is probably a member of the Westboro Baptist ‘Church’).  True   False   Not Sure

Donald Trump is a corrupt fascist who is being legally resisted by saintly and patriotic bureaucrats in the federal government, prosecutors who happen to reside in Democrat-run cities, and Globalist-financed assassins. True   False   Not Sure

White supremacy is a great threat to humanity. True   False   Not Sure

Tearing a fetus from the mother’s womb is a completely natural and healthful act. True   False   Not Sure

The Christian Walk requires that we find our purpose so we can have our best lives now.   True   False   Not Sure

Accusing someone of racism due to his/her skin color is the best way to improve interpersonal relations and make a country great.  True   False   Not Sure

The 2020 election was the most legitimate election in American history, and to state otherwise means you are an insurrectionist who needs to be investigated by the FBI. (You can question ad nauseam any election that a Republican wins, however.)                             True   False   Not Sure

Our strength is in our diversity, not our faith.  True   False   Not Sure

The World Economic Forum (WEF) and the wealthy billionaires who fund it care deeply for humanity and are in no way driven by greed and lust for power.  True   False   Not Sure

Paul was only kidding when he said, “Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel.” (Woe is another word for ‘oops’).                                 True   False   Not Sure

Medically altering a child’s sexuality so that he/she will never be able to procreate and ultimately loses his/her sexuality is a great way to improve someone’s mental health.  True   False   Not Sure

Removing all references to God from a certain political party’s platform does not mean that the members of that party will become futile in their thinking, and they will certainly never make really bad public policy decisions (so voters should have no qualms about voting for them).  True   False   Not Sure

The purpose of the press has always been to do the bidding of globalists, billionaires, and their communist minions who want to take away our freedom and who may even have genocidal inclinations.  True   False   Not Sure

You will own nothing, and you will be happy.  True   False   Not Sure

Preaching a different gospel than the one Paul preached shows incredible creativity and initiative which is greatly valued by God.  True   False   Not Sure

There are more than two sexes. (We do not know exactly how many sexes there are. We must patiently wait until the left tells us how many there are, and then, after they ruin enough of the lives of those who disagree and the rest of society capitulates, we will finally have a scientific analysis of exactly how many sexes there are.)  True   False   Not Sure

Larry Fink at Blackrock Investment Group controls a lot of money, so he has a legitimate right to dictate his values to the rest of the world.  True   False   Not Sure

Adding the term ‘social’ to the term ‘justice’ helps society to truly understand how to achieve justice since God’s moral law is completely inadequate for this purpose. True   False   Not Sure

Kamala Harris earned her way to become the presidential nominee of the Democrat Party because of her hard work and cogent thinking.  True   False   Not Sure

Methodology: The KMRI is designed to assess 5 major categories of abnormal thoughts and behavior.  These include:

1. Immorality: lacks the ability to distinguish right from wrong.
2. Foolishness: lacks the ability to distinguish truth from falsehood.
3. Poor Verbal Skills: Uses meaningless nonsensical words or social constructs as if they actually exist in reality.
4. Magical Thinking: Is highly susceptible to unrealistic theories or ideologies.
5. Sacrilege: Incapable of understanding sound Biblical doctrine.

Please add up your responses and record below:

Number of ‘True’ responses: ________

Number of ‘False’ responses: _________

Number of ‘Not Sure’ responses: _________

Regarding scoring, the correct answer to each question is ‘false.’ The number of questions that are answered ‘true’ gives us a good indication of a person’s spiritual condition. The more questions that are answered ‘true,’ the weaker that person’s faith and the greater the likelihood he/she is a reprobate.

The following can serve as a guide for the exam administrator to use in scoring the results of this test:

> Three or fewer ‘true’ answers: You are easily deluded and are in danger of being turned over by God to a reprobate mind.

> Six or fewer ‘true’ answers: You are an evildoer and are dead in your sins. You are a full-blown reprobate. Repent now and receive the gift of faith in Christ for the forgiveness of your sins before God takes over, hardening your heart, and it is too late.

> Seven or more ‘true’ answers: You are demonic and a son of the devil. You are likely lost for eternity. You have been abandoned by God because you have exhausted his mercy. Your condition as a reprobate is likely irreversible.

Those who choose the ‘not sure’ option repeatedly are lacking in the wisdom that should have come when they received the gift of faith. They are double-minded and unstable in all their ways. The number of ‘not sure’ options that are chosen should give us a strong statistical calculation of one’s spiritual instability.

We are now further down the road to developing a peer-reviewed, valid test of the number of reprobates that exist in this country.

We could continue to add more questions until we reach that coveted 567 number achieved by the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI). That would almost certainly ensure that our results would be at least 70% accurate.

The problem is I really do not have the patience for that.
