Date Posted: 13:32:13 05/15/04 Sat At around 1:00pm, I arrived at the Saturday Market located near the Skidmore Fountain in Portland, OR, wearing my signboard and holding my Bible in my hand. As I approached, Brother Grant was standing with Brother Abraham discussing with another gentleman the things of the Kingdom. They greeted me, and we stood waiting for the crowds to gather around us. Brother Grant's signboard listed many sins of the world, which gathered quite a crowd of people who wanted to justify the sins which Brother Grant was calling them on. Many people started to speak with us, saying the same old lines that everyone else uses. It seems the only portion of the Bible sinners know is the part in Matthew that reads, "Judge not;" however, they are unaware of the context of the verse: for the Bible is fairly clear what the passage in Matthew 6 means. Clearly Jesus was rebuking people who judge others for actions they themselves engage in: such as, if I was smoking a cigarette, and I tell someone that smoking is a sin deserving of damnation, that would make me a hypocrite, which is what the verse is all about. If somebody is judging another person, that person which judges will be judged by the same judgment they themselves are judging; and if the individual is judging someone based on their actions in light of what the Scripture regards as wickedness and rebellion against God, we ourselves will be judged right alongside of them for the same measuring stick, which happens to be the Word of God alone. This is okay. Later on, a young man was troubled concerning the portion of Brother Grant's signboard which said Muslims love Satan. I told him plainly that whosoever denies the Son of God, which Muslims are very quick to pronounce, also deny the Father, which is the God which they believe they serve (which is, of course, completely inaccurate). He was very bothered and, of course, got in my face and threatened me. Many individuals who were alot more peaceful than him stepped between us, and I love God for the opportunity to tell a sinner the truth concerning hell, righteousness, judgment, and the falsehood of religions causing sinners to continue in their rebellion against the Lord and Savior, the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who is exalted baove all that are called or named in heaven above, or in the earth beneath! The Lord is good, worthy, and holy! In Jesus name, amen! Brother Grant preached concerning the repentance of sin, which means to stop sinning, and come clean with the Lord God and receive the forgiveness of sins through faith in the one and only begotten Son of God who paid the ransom for our evil deeds by dying and bleeding upon the tree, upon the cross of Calvary. Hallelujah! Jesus is God! Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God omnipotent reigns! Jesus is God! Bless the Lord oh my soul! Make known among the nations that He is exalted, risen from the dead, and good and great and worthy to be lifted up for all men to be drawn to His power, love, authority, grace, mercy, and lordship! Honor the Son, and you will honor the Father in the holiness and purity of the power of the Gracious Presence of the Spirit of God which ruled and reigned in the gracious heart of God's Son, Jesus Christ; which is where we need to reside, faithfully within the bosom of God's great worshipful Son, the Almighty Lord God revealed to us in the loving form of the Son of God, great merciful Lord and soveriegn God Jesus Christ, the risen Lord and Son of God! HALLELUJAH! Jesus reigns supreme over all creation! May the Spirit of mercy between us believe in His power and repentance for us all in His holy name! Great is His name, worthy to be preached to all men, women and children! Lord God, give us repentance worthy to be revealed in the last days, for the judgment is on its way, for we are an unworthy generation about to reap the fruits of vengeance for our ungoldiness and blasphemy against your godliness. In Jesus name, Amen. God received His Son because He is worthy to be preached and praised! He never committed sin, and He is Almighty Jehovah, the One and Only true God! Jesus Christ, the resurrected Son of the Almighty Father God! Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ upon all that call upon Him in sincerity and truth. I love you all in the love of God which has been shed abroad in my hearts through the faith of the love of the Son of the Lord God Almighty, and His name is Jesus Christ, the resurrected Savior of all mankind! In Jesus name, Amen! Bless the Lord, oh my soul, and make known among the nations that He is Lord of all! Another brother came up and asked if he could tell people that he would be feeding people. We agreed. Another sister came up and testified of chastity and purity to this sinful, wicked, lascivious generation; which caused the lust-filled perverts of the day and age to blush at their apparent grossness and sinful flesh, which has plunged this country into the depraved nature which has engulfed the children with death pleasure like a flood. The brothers and I blessed the Lord together, and blessed the name of Jesus Christ for His mercy towards those who hate His name being preached. By the everlasting mercy, love, and grace of God, we call you all to repent, turn, and chagne your ways before the resurrected Savior returns to recompence all their rewards for righteousness or wickedness. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved from your evil wicked hearts, which are blackened by the sin which does so easily beset you! We love you, and the Lord loves you all as well! peace in the name of Jesus Christ! Danny [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
