Subject: Thy Word O Lord is Truth
========================
--- Begin ---

Brother Don,

I'm sorry that your upset concerning what I'm saying. But am I to keep quite when I see what I believe is error among those who are trying to follow the Truth? You yourself proclaim that I am in error, are you wrong for doing that? I don't believe so. That is why I said I encourage you or anyone that is truly trying to live by the Word to speak up when and if they see that I may be in error concerning something. Unless I was to have something pointed out, I may not recognize my error to even consider it in the Light of the Word.

Rom.10:17, So then faith (revelation) cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

I have received your last two e-mails addressing what I am ministering. It is obvious that you cannot take a rebuke very well. (Don Parnell)
email finished:------------------------------------8/31/98

I have no problem taking rebukes. If you was to go look at my website you would see that I have a page in which I debated with many on a secular Forum concerning doctrine and I of course was rebuked by many in almost every debate. These of course where Foundational teachings as Baptism, One God ect... Rebukes are supposed to get someone to look to the Scriptures to see if indeed they are correct in what they believe. So the opposite is usually true when I do proclaim something that others don't believe, they get angry because they can't defend their beliefs with the Word so they must turn to something else to defend their beliefs. They get angry because they seek not Truth. So Word by Word I try to break down that which is false to let the Word shine through, that they may walk in the Light. I'm not trying to prove them wrong, but trying to guide them into the Light. The Lord knows this is true.

Proverbs 15:31-33, The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.

Of course those that believe that there is One God and seen me defending the faith would say Amen brother. But those that don't would say, your just causing trouble, strife, leading others astray by your false doctrine, and we don't want to hear it anymore. So the same goes with any subject. Most but not all People tend to take sides because of what they believe at that time, and what group that they are part of, not because it's the Truth.

But men are just men and I know this. So I try to be patient. But yet I won't compromise for their sake.

One thing that I have learned from my pastor and the Fairborn Assembly is we do not have to debate what we believe. If someone doesn't want what we have, then move on to the next person. It is also obvious that you do not want what we are preaching. I don't debate, I don't have time for debate. (Don Parnell)

That statement could be true, but only in certain conditions.

IITim.2:4:2-4, Preach the Word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Jude 3,4 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our lord Jesus Christ.

So we are to contend and defend the faith, Revelation of the Word. And especially in these days where the Scriptures speak of a turning away from the truth unto fables. But it is also Written.

IITim.2:23-25, But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Titus3:9-11, But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is an heretic after the first and second admonition reject; knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

So foolish questions that are not pointing to understanding the Word is to be avoided. But even those that may want to contend with you are to be given two tries in order that God may let them see the Light and recover out of the snare of the devil. And what I have been speaking about I do not believe falls in the category of a foolish subject. For it deals with the very foundation of the faith (revelation) that we have received from bro. Branham.

There is an attitude that prevails these days in almost all realms, and it is of the devil. What I'm speaking of is the many religious and secular groups that say, "If you don't like what we believe or practice, leave. You have no right to judge or condemn us. We have the right to do and say what we want." So of course we now have homosexual ministers and many other such evil things. To speak up and condemn the falsehood your looked at as though your wrong for even doing that. It doesn't matter if what your saying is right or wrong anymore, its just outright wrong to speak against what anybody says, practices, believes, or does, unless the "Accepted Media" puts it in the minds of the Masses that what a group or person is doing is wrong. Is this not the spirit of Laodicea? Remember what laodicea stands for? The Peoples Rights.

I have seen this spirit creep into some of the Message Churches also. Unless you are for them, and believe as they do, they don't want you around. They don't want anyone making waves in their nice little pond. They won't ask you to leave because they can't point to anything sinful enough to give them a good excuse, so instead they will call you "brother" yet in their heart they think your deceived or a devil, and they are wishing you wasn't there. Why? Because you have not become one with that group. There is no real advantage in you being around. To them you are disrupting the blissful harmony of that congregation by needlessly bringing up Scriptures that may oppose what is said or done. They are convinced that they are right in their interpretation of the Word and the Message of William Branham, so they don't want to be disturbed with what they think is a bunch of nonsense. So another words, just leave us alone! If you don't want to be a part of this congregation, then just leave.

Hypocrites!

Jude 16-18,These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

They won't even take the time to exhort a brother or sister if they believe they are wrong about something, to try and help them, but will just let them leave and then talk behind their backs about how wrong they are. This shows that they don't have the love of Christ in them. What ever happened to these Scriptures?

Galatians 6:1-3 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

James 5:19, Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him. Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

The hold on some of these Message Churches on their congregations is just flat evil. It may not be that way in your church and I hope it's not, but in many it is being pushed that you MUST go to Church or you just won't make it. And if you don't go you will be sinning. I of course believe in going to Church for the Scriptures say to assemble yourselves together, but a persons salvation is not based on whither they go to church or not, but on the grace of Jesus Christ! So that is a lie and trick of the Devil. I have dealt with this spirit for many years by many Leaders. It is a stronghold for those Ministers that preach you can't receive Truth and Revelation without them. So without them your lost! That is that spirit of Nicolaitane, using fear. They will even till you not to listen to anyone else but them or you will be deceived! But don't the Scriptures say God's people can't be deceived? These are afraid you will hear the True Gospel and come come out from among them.

Of course the Fivefold ministry is to be in operation in the Churches to Feed the Flock of God. But they are Servants to the Congregation, not the other way around. Its that "spirit" that is being used with the authority of that Fivefold Ministry that is evil. I hope you understand what I mean. Review the system of the Catholic Church and that "spirit of Nicolaitane" and you will see what I mean. Like I said though, if this is not happening in your Church, praise the Lord!

Rev.2:6,But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

Please do not send me any of the junk about the book, "A Mighty Rushing Wind". I know what the Bride's revival is, and it is not a bunch of pentecostalism written by a trinitarian. Don't waste your time sending it to me. Your not even sure of it yourself. I have better things to read, like the Word of God and the prophet's message. I have a pastor to guide me. That's where I get my message from. (Don Parnell)

If you wish for me not to send you anything about the Revival in Indonesia I won't. I'm also glad you know what the Bride Revival is. Stick with what you believe as that is what a person is to do. And your pastor is your shepherd, so he is responsible if he Leeds you right or wrong. That is why you are to pray for your pastor. There are a lot of pastors in the world that are way off the Word, and they are leading their congregation astray. They will be judged.

One thing I will say though is I don't understand where you get that Trinitarianism was being pushed or preached by those in that Revival. These Brethren when the Revival started left their Church and the leadership of the Pastors that was in charge to follow Jesus Christ and His Leadership. That is quite plain. The Lord set up this Leadership Himself and then sent them out to Evangelize the heathen nations around them. They went in the Name of Jesus Christ, preaching the Gospel and casting out devils. There was no one person in charge, but Christ. He sent them, and they went where He said, not some board of directors or some denomination.

As far a Pentecostalism, it was the Lord that brought Pentecost to them, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. They just acted the same way when that same Spirit was poured out on the Day of Pentecost. They was not a Pentecostal denomination, but was a Presbyterian denomination which was against the manifestations of the Holy Spirit before the Spirit Fell. So that pentecostalism was the result of the Spirit of God, not a Denomination. Talk to God about their actions, if you want to complain about their mighty works of the Spirit of God.

Bro. Branham said if that Branch ever puts forth another Branch it will be as the Original Branch; Pentecostal Holy Ghost Filled Christians walking in the Power of the Spirit. The First church was not a theological bunch, quoting this and quoting that and yet not manifesting the Power of the Original Pentecostal Blessing. He also said another book of acts would be written behind this revival. Not Scripture now, but a record of the Acts of the Holy Spirit in the Bride manifesting the Power of the Holy Spirit in the End Time. The Son of Man in His Bride fulfilling the Scriptures for that time. So we must be careful when we say that there is not to be any Power and Supernatural with that End Time Bride. I know the Lord and He is Supernatural and all Powerful. When He shows up on the seen you can always count on the Supernatural happening. He is the Dynamics which comes upon His Word to fulfill it, if you can believe. Those in Indonesia were believers, so therefore you had the Spirit of God manifesting the Power of His Spirit in marvelous ways.

Also I'm sure of the Revelation that I have concerning the Indonesian Revival being the beginning of the Last Move of the Bride. But like I said I'm willing to look at what I believe and compare it to the Scriptures and the Revelation that Bro. Branham had to see if the Revelation holds up to the Word. That is what we are supposed to do with any revelation or belief. If it can't hold up to the Word Test then we should let it go and accept the Truth of the Scriptures. Won't you agree? Or are we to be Stiff Necked and not turn and listen to the Word? I try to have a heart that can be turned to the Truth. I'm not afraid to have anything I believe challenged by the Scriptures. But I will not bow down to man made concepts, traditions, and doctrines of man! I serve the Lord and Him only.

But if you believe that what went on over in Indonesia was of the Devil, then of course you wouldn't see Scripture being fulfilled even if it was. I don't believe it was of satan because I can see God in this movement. And it goes without saying that it had to be one or the other. But before I would call it a work of the Devil I would sure want to be sure of that, because if it wasn't you would be speaking of the Works of the Holy Spirit in an evil way.

There's no need of me addressing your silly little remarks in the other two e-mails until you repent of trying to push that false revival on us and other brethren. When you repent, I will write you again. (Don Parnell)
email finish--------------------------------8/31/98

I will only repent when it is shown by the Word that I have made a mistake in what I believe. I am under the Authority of the Scriptures not a man. If a man leaves the Authority of the Scriptures I will try and lead them back to the Word, and if they will not come under the Headship of the Word, Jesus Christ, then that is between them and God. I'm a Teacher not a Judge which sentences those who disobey the Word by not believing it.

My silly remarks as you would call them proved that the understanding and doctrine that you and others have concerning how we as Christians are to perceive the messages of bro.Branham is wrong. There is no way around it. For you made this statement:

e-mail:-------------True Oneness pt.2 Sat, 29 Aug 1998 by bro.don parnell
After the Opening of The Seals the prophet's entire message was the Word of Truth to separate us from ourselves and from the denominational spirit of the devil. When the Angel of the Covenant, of Revelations 10:1 took over the prophet on Sunset mountain, the 7th angel prophet carried the Word of Infallibility. Before the opening of the seals, the revealing of the seven thunders, you could find things which the prophet was mistaken about. You will not find contradictions in his message after the opening of the seals. His ministry was progressive until then and the Angel took over his ministry.
e-mail finished:--- True Oneness pt.2 Sat, 29 Aug 1998 by bro.don parnell

And in my last email I proved that bro. Branham made mistakes and contradiction in his messages after the opening of the 7 Seals. He did not have so-called, the Word of Infallibility, in the messages he preached. Those Tapes and the books copied from those tapes are not Scripture. He preached with the understanding of the Scriptures as they was Revealed to him. When the Lord Revealed to him another Revelation he would come and preach it to the Church. So he grew in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ as every Christian does by the revelations that was revealed to him from God, out of the Word.

That doctrine of the Infallibility of William Branham is false and is of the devil! It is the Foundation for all other false doctrines to rest on for those using the messages of William Branham for a tool of deception. It is a deceptive lie to give credence to what they say without being questioned by the congregation. By the congregation being taught this Core doctrine of the Infallibility of William Branham all is simple needed is a quote here or a quote there to back up just about anything they want.

They know that most Sheep don't look for themselves but trust the Shepherds for guidance and leadership. And so to further keep them from Seeking the Truth they tell them that they can't receive any revelation by reading or hearing the messages of Bro. Branham or even of the Bible. They must receive it only from them. This indoctrination is of course enforced as much as possible to hold them, henceforth they are told they must come to church or they will be sinning. That is that spirit of Nicolaitane.

Brethren can't you see this? Don't you realize that this would be the only way for satan to get a stronghold using the messages of William Branham? Now he can have his ministers act like they are Bride because they hold forth the Message of William Branham! Now do you see why the churches are the way they are? The Message of Bro. Branham didn't cause this, its the wolves in sheeps clothing that has creep in unaware and have been perverting the Message of William Branham, Prophecy Fulfilled!

Matt.24:24, For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

If you want to try some more to defend this doctrine of Infallibility instead of turning to the Truth of the Word, go ahead, the Word will disclose the Truth every time. I know that there is many others that believe the same thing as you do but they have no defense by the Word or of the Message of William Branham. Yet they pursue their man made doctrine for what ever reason. The Lord shall Judge them on that day.

The Lord has spoken to me to reveal this and other falsehoods and expose them for what it is that those that are wanting to walk in the Light can. There is some little Sheep out there that are hungry for the Truth and can see that something is wrong in the Message Churches but they don't know what to do. They really don't understand the cause of the problems as they are around only those that enforce the doctrines of these churches. For them to speak out would cause them to be banished from the supposedly closest thing to the real Church. So they go to get a little slice of bread to feed themselves as bro. Branham said. But now it is revealed.

I will not send you anymore posts that I send to the group if you so desire.

Im a Watchman for the Sheep of God. And I will stand for them to my death!

Shalom
