A WORD FROM THE LORD ABOUT THE APOSTASY OF CHRISTIANITY "Examine yourselves to see if ye are in the faith" ---since Paul said that to the early church, Is it not all the more true for us today? Know what you believe (the false gospel or the true) and in whom you have placed your trust (a false Jesus or the one true Lord and Savior? It is written: 2John 1:9 "Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son."    By transgressing (undermining, supplanting, turning from and/or not abiding in) the DOCTRINE of Christ, millions of so-called believers, do not know they do not have God!   Many more, by trying to complete in the flesh what was begun in the Spirit have made themselves transgressors!   Some have even exchanged their God by trying to change and/or rename Him!     The Churches have unknowingly and inadvertently exchanged their God and have become the adversaries of the Almighty!     The Churches are being sent into Captivity while apostate leaders are leading God's people like lambs straight into the day "of slaughter".   Because of the apostasy of the churches, God's own people are being turned over into the hands of their enemies.    Few recognize the judgments now in progress against God's own people, harsh but corrective judgments have been sent by God Himself which are meant to turn His own people from an apostasy they refuse to recognize and confess! Meanwhile permissive pastors, ministers and lying prophets twist God's word to reinforce His people in error, insisting these things are not so...they prophesy lying visions and deceive the people ...and the people love to have it so!   Take three to four minutes (for slower modems) to DOWNLOAD the article,    "EVERY RELIGION IS A CRAFT AND EVERY CRAFT IS MASONIC" in easy to read, printer friendly PDF format using the following links (in 5 of 5 Parts)     PART 1 of 5,   PART 2 of 5,   PART 3 of 5,   PART 4 of 5,   PART 5 of 5,  The article will no doubt be an eye-opener regarding our part in false religion, and of apostate Christianity as part of the one world religion. But some do hear the sound of the churches weeping, like Rachael weeping for her children because they are not!   Millions are being aborted in the faith, millions more professing false Jesus' through false teachers and their false doctrines!    Some do see that the churches are even now being delivered into the hands of their enemies, given over to persecution and great tribulation: the beginning of sorrows has come!   There will be great lamentation, weeping and gnashing of teeth because HE called but she (we) refused to hear! (cf. Prov.1:20-23)         Just as Israel, the apple of God's eye, was given into the hands of her enemies because she departed from her God, because she repented not of her harlotry, so too millions of Christians (the churches themselves) have been given into the hands of their enemies for the destruction of the flesh that souls may be saved.    In the tribulation now coming upon us, according to Scripture, many will suffer martyrdom.     Many will be martyred for His Name who (up until now have vaunted themselves in the flesh and) refused to be slain in His Name!----NO, I am NOT ADVOCATING violence against anyone! Find out how the admonitions and Biblical warnings include the entire Church, even you and your church!   Read all the articles posted in the text links below written, they are regarding the testimony of the Lord against the wicked ways of His people"!   We MUST consider our ways and our doings and repent!   Have you ignorantly become a good Christian Humanist?    You THINK not, eh?    Read the articles (linked) below to find out just HOW GOD sees our form "of Christianity"! How have the Churches allowed these things to come upon us unaware?    READ ABOUT SPORTSIANITY   and find out what has happened to God's people while idols slept!   Have a sobering look at today's READ 'CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIANITY'   and it becomes clearer why we are now under the correction of the Almighty! Have you ever considered whether or not you have been actually supplanting true holiness?   Why not read   HEROIC HARLOTRY SUPPLANTING HOLINESS  and find out for yourself?   Do you really know what true HOLINESS is to our Heavenly Father?   (I once thought I did.)    Take a moment to read this short article on   HOLINESS IS NOT A WHAT BUT A WHO (Holiness Unto the Lord)  and find out what TRUE HOLINESS really is to Him who alone is Holy!   I know that many of you probably think you already know what true holiness is to God, so did I until 1986 when the Lord knocked me off my donkey and began to reveal Himself to me, even as I also underwent a series of corrective judgments in my life (as He wrote this message in my own life.) In the Light of Who He is, it pleased the LORD to shed light on (reveal) the heart of the apostasy!   Over 15 years ago the Lord told me, (i.e., Thus saith the Lord, ) "the churches are all becoming one, but not in Me".    The Lord has uncovered how with all subtlety Satan has been twisting the gospel of Jesus Christ into another gospel, EXCHANGING THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL for the gospel of Self, the gospel of Man. We have adopted false teachings, false doctrines and false gods by twisting the truth and shifting the focus of the Gospel off of Jesus Christ to develope for ourselves a false gospel, not teaching and preaching Jesus Christ but instead "all that man" can be "in Christ". False moves of God and false gospels cater to the lust of the eye (including our lust for power, including the power of knowledge), the lust of the flesh (even our lust for control) and the pride of life (fallen Adam's own pride in his own self as a son of God) all of which is masking itself as Gospel Truth. Man is using Scripture to vaunt his own self (in a false Christhood of the believer), through an extremely subtle form of Gnosticism (power in the KNOWLEDGE of who THEY are in Christ) disguised as gospel truths, Chrisitans are lusting after power, just as much as the world is and vaunting themselves (who they are) in Christ instead of humbling ourselves at the Feet of Him who alone is worthy, who is Himself the Life in whom we must be both slain and hid!    The Lord also revealed how His own people have departed from Him as the Fountain of Living water.     We have turned from seeking the Face of Him who is the Truth to follow after the counsel of our own minds in our own twisted teachings perverting the truth in man's twisted applications of the written word of God!   Many believers have been following false movements within the churches, foolishly thinking they have a spiritual mandate to bring all things under their feet through a supposedly God-given mandate to manifest themselves (and their Christhood) as fully empowered sons of God.   We have been doing our own thing in His Name, while God by His Spirit has been calling us to rest in His own Jesus Himself, Behold, I do a New Thing. Dead Adam is the old thing which is passed away, Jesus Himself (with us hidden in Him) is the only acceptable Thing in the sight of God!   Read about Jesus Himself as the rest into which we are called!  GOD'S "NEW THING"  and by way of contrast, read also about   GOD'S "CORRECTIVE" NEW THING and decide for yourself which NEW THING do you prefer? We seldom really stop to ask the Lord to reveal His meaning of His word to us by His Spirit, and instead, we been taught to go to the written word and decide things for ourselves according to what we think about His word (following the counsel of our own minds) regarding what we do or do not see in Scripture.   We draw our own conclusions and substitute our own reasoning and logic concerning God's written word all in place of the Counsel, Wisdom and Understanding of His Spirit.    In doing so, we have turned from Him as our Counselor to follow the counsel of our own minds, and trust in the broken cisterns of man's own understanding of scripture!   The Lord has revealed how through this process, we have produced man-made precepts and doctrines of men, by which God's people are being taught to oppose the Truth under the guise of teaching truth (and are grieving the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth!) By the precepts of men, God's own people are being taught to practice idolatry (idolatry of mind, stubbornness of mind and stubbornness of heart) and have readily accepted, adopted and even "incorporated" doctrines of Hinduism, occultism, witchcraft, divination, spiritism, as well as a bastardized form of Christianity (Christianized humanism) into the teachings of the Churches! Only the Lord Himself is able show us things as they really are in His sight! Please go to Him, please, I entreat you to ASK Him about the things written in these articles!   Find out (from Him) about the things that are being taught (unaware) in your own church by those who are ignorantly adulterating the word of the Living God!    Come and see, read how Christians are taught lying visions of men's own minds, how Christians everywhere are supplanting TRUE holiness through man's own adulterous adoration and our own heroic harlotry! Rather than insist in our own perception of these things, not wanting to believe these things are so, instead of taking offense, please allow me the grace to challenge you in your faith by inviting you to read what the Spirit of God has been saying about these things as "our wicked ways" keeping in mind that His "testimony against us" is not to condemn us but to restore us "in Spirit and in Truth"! Before you judge these things (or me) hastily, be sure you prayerfully read ALL the articles and submit what you read (submit your "self" -your mind, what you think) to the LORD, asking THE LORD Himself to give Understanding by His Spirit and ask Him to take you to His word and show you what He is saying concerning these things!

Consider the folly, the harlotry in and of the Churches today!   Consider the consequences of man's own folly, manifesting itself freely from the pulpit to the pew! Sowing to the wind, reaps the whirlwind!

Because of the apostasy of the Churches, because of our own folly, ONE-THIRD OF THE EARTH WILL BE DESTROYED (EVEN NOW THESE JUDGMENTS HAVE BEGUN)!   The churches knew these judgments were coming, -yet in our pride, arrogance and folly, we foolishly insist it would not, could not, will not come to us!

Meanwhile God is (yet) calling us (even His own people) to repent as tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes etc. increase.     Rows of caskets will continue to line our sanctuaries, as churches and believer's homes (alike) are destroyed, but God's people still refuse to hear what the Spirit of God is really saying to the churches!

[This paragraph was added on 08-27-03    Man's own evil will continue to come upon him, false teachers and false prophets will proliferate, lying signs and wonders will continue to abound. Christendom is utterly apostate, the churches will not be the agents of a glorious end-time revival. Cycles of flood and drought will continue world-wide, and will increase in severity. Los Angeles and New York City will each experience a tremendous earthquake (along the magnitude of 8.2); one will follow the other; with violence, New York City itself will (literally) implode into the ground... Volcanoes will continue to awaken and erupt, one after the other, until all are active; dams will fail, whole towns will be obliterated in their wake... Glaciers and ice caps will continue to melt... plagues (old and new) will increasingly arise, pestilence and blight will destroy forests and decimate our crops; Huge fissures will appear, the earth itself will be rent in pieces, as the Lord God shakes not only the earth but the heavens also! The question now is, when will His own people hear and turn?]

WATCH UNTO PRAYER SITE DESCRIPTION/INTODUCTION: "Watch Unto Prayer" is not a ministry of merely exposing heresy in the Church, although we are called to do so. Rather, the "Watch Unto Prayer" ministry has the ultimate purpose of rescuing God’s people from the present apostasy."

Beliver's have been taught so exclusively about the love and goodness of God, they have no fear of the Lord.   Jesus Himself described this sort of problem saying, "their fear of Me is taught by doctrines of men."    The fear of God is undermined by the doctrines of men!     Even though God has not given us a spirit of fear (which means He has not given us a spirit of cowardice or timidity), He does expect us to have a healthy fear of God...

BE NOT AS THE MULE Many perceive themselves to be spiritual, highly anointed, learned, mature "sons of God" in Christ.   Many like to think they are well-trained and disciplined in the things of God, believing they are well able to pull "the Master's Carriage" -whereas, few will acknowledge that God's people have been more like stubborn mules, who evade correction, refuse "to receive" scourging, -behaving more like "bastards and not sons" (cf. Heb.12:8) exalting our own "selves" in Christ, walking according to what we like to think is scripturally "right to us in our own sight" -behaving like rebellious, foolish young colts in the field who despise the master's bridle!

A WORD ABOUT LAODICEAN TRUTH    HALF-TRUTHS AND THE APOSTATE CHURCH

"A MOST DESOLATE HOUSE"  OUT OF HEAVEN SHALL HE THUNDER UPON THEM TO RESTORE OR DESTROY?

FROM POLITICS TO WORMWOOD    THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD, RELIGIOUS AND SECULAR ARE "UNDER THE CURSE" [UNDER JUDGMENT BY THE LAW] BY THE TWISTING AND PERVERTING OF THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND PEACE, LIKE FOOLISH (BEWITCHED AND BEGUILED) GALATIANS, TRYING TO COMPLETE &/OR PERFECT IN THE FLESH WHAT IS BEGUN IN THE SPIRIT, WE HAVE MADE GRACE NO MORE GRACE.  (A SOBERING PROPHETIC POEM ABOUT THE JUGDMENT DUE THE IDOLATRY OF MAN, OUR SPIRITUAL HARLOTRY!) Our spiritual harlotry, our own idolatry of heart and mind, the idolatry of the god of Self is soon to be ground to powder by God's judgment(s) in the "Stoning of the Harlot", the Harlotry of (all) false teachings, of all our false ways, of all false religion!   This judgment is already on its way (to the churches, and) to all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth.

"MEET THE COMPETITION"   THE SO-CALLED HEALTHY (SPIRIT OF) COMPETITION

In the idolatry of his own heart, in the idolatry of man's own mind, man himself is sitting in the temple of God, setting up his own image (of the anointed and appointed Self) in the temple of God, i.e., in our tabernacle of flesh. Man is exalting "himself" in the temple of God, exalting his own image of Self (the image of who "he is") as his own god, paying homage to the god of self, even by the believer's own idolatrous, false christlikeness 'of man' in the name of Christ!   Man is exalting his own name "in the name of God".   Man is proclaiming his inner "self" to be like god as man sets himself up to be his own god; man himself has made "self" a god, which man has fashioned into his own image and likeness of God. Christians are exalting man, exalting themselves, lifting up man in Christ, exalting themselves in man's own counterfeit (utterly false) "Christ-like-ness" (even, of man becoming "like Jesus").    Mankind is exalting it-self (even in the churches); the "anointed of God" are unashamedly led to chant en masse: "I AM ANOINTED, I AM ANOINTED" by false teachers who proclaim their own selves to be little gods, even claiming to be little messiahs walking in the earth! Benny Hinn, Copeland, Price, Rodney Howard-Browne, Casey Treat, Rod Parsley, Hagin etc. --a whole host of apostate Word of Faith, Kingdom Now/Dominion Theology/Manifest Sons of God heretical teachers, preachers and false prophets have inundated Christendom with their blasphemous false doctrines! Man's exaltation of self in the secular world and in the church is (now) reaching its global zenith!   It is a stench in the nostrils of God reaching to the highest heavens.   This idolatry of mind, man's last days global (universal) exaltation of Self [his own false image, as god (both in the world and in the churches) is "the abomination that makes desolate" spoken of by the prophet Daniel! REPENT!   HUMBLE YOURSELVES!   LITTLE CHILDREN, FLEE FROM IDOLS!   FLEE FROM THE IDOLATRY OF MAN'S OWN EXALTATION OF SELF!   REPENT OF ESTEEMING YOUR OUR OWN SELVES, REPENT OF LIFTING UP WHO 'MAN' IS IN CHRIST!   HUMBLE YOURSELVES AT THE FEET OF HIM WHO ALONE IS WORTHY, JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD!    FORSAKE THE WORSHIP OF YOUR OWN IMAGE! FORSAKE THE IDOLATRY OF SELF! DENY SELF!  CAST DOWN THE FALSE "IMAGE OF GOD" (MAN'S OWN IMAGE OF SELF) WHICH MAN HIMSELF HAS SET UP IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD!   WAKE UP!   GOD IS GIVING HIS "LAST CALL TO ALL" TO REPENT!

[Approximately fifteen years ago, as my pastor and I discussed a syllabis I had written regarding the apostasy, I told my pastor (Pastor Frutiger) that the Lord had showed me "there would be huge mega-ministries that would rise up, and there would be real signs and wonders" --and the Pastor said, Oh, praise the Lord. But by the Spirit of the Lord, my reply was "No, Pastor, not praise the Lord, not praise God.  (I explained further that, "These mega-ministries, including the signs and wonders would be part of the end-time deception of and in the churches!"] This is where we are now, today.

We were warned about the seductive wiles of the harlot, about the seduction of our own souls, the SELF deceptive leading of our own idolatrous minds!  We were warned about the folly of our own souls, "I Suffer Not A Woman to Teach" is Dame Folly [the Soul or Self] being allowed to stand (teaching) in the pulpit! Deceived and deceiving many (*even teaching a Christianized form of Humanism, Self-ism, the gospel of man's own Self like or as Christ).   In her harlotry, she knows not that her desolation is nigh.   Meanwhile "her children" (-the false teachings and doctrines which she has birthed out of the harlotry of man's own soul) --her corruption and her adulteration of the gospel of Jesus Christ (with the false teachings of the world) is causing God's people to IGNORANTLY OPPOSE both God and their own selves. Mankind is repeating the folly of Babel, every man striving to make a name for himself in the earth.   And Christians are doing the very same thing, trying to establish their own 'selves' as manifest sons of God, -even making a name for themselves, and their ministries, in the earth (all 'in Jesus Name', of course). We ought to be preaching Jesus Christ and Him crucified (which means, we, ourselves are crucified by Him and in Him!)   We should be proclaiming Jesus Christ, instead of "who we are" and what "we think we are called to be" in Christ, instead of vaunting our own selves in our counterfeit, Christ-like, human potential!     "Nevertheless, not I but Christ" is the testimony of Jesus!  The prophetic word is like a song.   And that song is of Him alone (like the song "Eres Tu" -we should be singing, Lord "It is You")   The testimony of Jesus is the song sung by His Spirit in the night seasons, in seasons of darkness and hardness of men's hearts.  The song of the Spirit, the testimony of Jesus Christ is being reduced to a whisper, silenced by vain men rejoicing in the gifts, trampled underfoot by men vaunting themselves in their Christ-like human potential, preaching ourselves, the gospel of man himself and "who man" is in Christ! God's voice is being systematically silenced by pastors, teachers, decons, elders, preachers, and church leaders alike. Religious men and women are vaunting their own selves, their own commandments, their own traditions: the teachings and doctrines of men. Those who love power are vainglorying in the flesh! Woe, Woe, Woe unto those (even His own people) who refuse to hear.

"And I gave her space to repent...and she repented not Behold, I will cast her into a bed (of tribulation) and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation! (Rev.2:20-22 KJV) ...when these things shall come to pass, you shall know that it is I, that I am the Lord and I have done it!
The House of God, Bethel has become "Bethaven" the House of Vanity!
The churches stubbornly refuse to repent by refusing to see or hear... except according to what man himself wants to hear and what he himself deems to be "scripturally" right in his own sight! And so "that Day" (of great tribulation) has now come upon her unawares. (cf. Luke 21:34-36)
"and I will kill all her children with death and all the churches shall know that I am He which searcheth the reins (wills) and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works." (Rev.2:23 KJV)

I urge you always in all things to acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ who Alone is perfect in Wisdom and Knowledge.  &nsp;I urge you always in everything to ask Him to be The "Discerner" (for you) by His Spirit! -because what we think is our worst form of idolatry.   In spite of what any of us think we know, it is written: "if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.." (1Cor.8:2 KJV)

We ought to therefore, humble ourselves in our hearts and minds, and in e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g, ask God Himself to be "discerment" for us (through Christ on our behalf by the power of the Holy Spirit) -in order that Jesus Christ (who is HIMSELF the "Living Word") might Himself "prove all things" and "test all things" (for us) by HIS Spirit (on our behalf) in agreement with the Spirit of The Word, (and not just the letter only) so that in the unity of HIS Spirit, -in Spirit and in Truth, we will "hold fast" in ALL things to ONLY that which "is good" in HIS Sight, -regardless of what "seems right" or is esteemed in the sight "of men".

PLEASE NOTE:  This site is not a "fast food" pit stop.   You will only get out of it according to the time you decide to invest in it!   It is called Noteye's "Rest Stop" because it is not my idea, -and it is not I, me or my ministry but rather it is "His ministry".   This "Rest Stop" was placed here according to the Lord's purposes, in order to provide information He wants His people to have to (hopefully) assist you along "The Way" in your homeward bound journey.   The word of the Lord, and the spiritual lessons to be learned here, are meant to be taken along with you when you leave here, submitting all things unto Him asking Him to give Understanding by His Spirit (in His time) as it pleases Him.    As you read the articles, please keep in mind the way in which the Lord ministers teachings by His Spirit; His teachings are: here a little, there a little, line upon line, precept upon precept.   Regardless of your spiritual background, please avoid making the mistake of assuming you already know what He means in anything; humble yourself in spite of what you know, and always "ask of Him" -otherwise you may end up with only your own understanding!  (cf. Prov. 3:5-7)   Remember to allow the Lord time to teach you concerning whatsoever things He has for you here :-)    Keep in mind the fact that Jesus often taught people in the form of parables.   And the spiritual meaning and application of His stories was not always immediately understood, even by His own disciples.   You may have noticed in your Bible reading, when the disciples asked questions of Him, Jesus often gave answers that seemed (to man's unlearned ear) to have little to do with the questions they had asked.   But that is the way with spiritual things, they must be spiritually discerned -and that, only by His Spirit for us, on our behalf -as we (like little children) humbly submit not just our hearts, but our whole hearts to Him (including our thoughts, preconceived ideas, our attitudes and/or the opinions that we human beings tend to have and hold :-) In these articles there are many things that may not seem (at first) to fit what you have learned and there are many statements that do not seem to be related to the subject at hand.    Even the titles of some of the articles do not seem to fit the text itself but I assure you it is by His design (leading) not mine.   From what He has shown me, the titles have everything to do with the text of the articles.   If &/or when the Lord gives the Understanding, then you will know...   Meanwhile before judging the message in your own understanding, before judging the content of the articles or judging this writer, I pray you will wait upon the Lord (for Him to give Understanding by His Spirit) and I pray you will be blessed as you continue to pursue Him with all your heart!
