Part of a letter I e-mailed a apostolic christian brother today.............. Somedays I struggle much on the narrow way, yesterday I almost cracked - It's on my heart much this morning that I need to work to be separate from this world... 2 Corinthians 6:16-18: "And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." . So true 2 Corinthians 6:16 "And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?" I think it's like good to "come out from among them - and be ye separate" good thing for me to put a bit of distance between myself and this earth not live like them "touch not the unclean thing" this earth must defile themselves w/the things of this earth that they have as idols I really suspect 1 John 2:15 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." Colossians 2:20-22 "Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Colossians 2:20 powerfully speaks to me to glad I decided to look it up in my bible concordia : ) "if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world" that right there super speaks to me........and to "touch not, taste not, handle not, which all are to perish with the using!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Fresh video edit February 26, 2020 honoring Brunstad Christian Church..................
Video edit February 26, 2020:
https://activechristianity.org/about-us/brunstad-christian-church
verses mentioned in video above..................
Jude 1:9 "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee."
Hebrews 10:23 "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)" I don't give up I don't turn back cause I sooooo believe god is faithful "he is faithful that promised"
God's word is to this day doing much a work in my both hidden and visible life I believe......Isaiah 55:11 "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." God's word isn't going to "return unto me void" but it "shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it" so true.
It's good to be in god's word to let god's word do a work in you, I recommend reading the bible daily much and praying daily, pray without ceasing.........Acts 2:21 "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." I don't pray everyday but I'm shooting to do that going to work much harder to do that ----- "whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved". (maybe cause god'll give all the people that pray the sense in their heads to open their bibles and read em so god's word will do a work in them --- my going theory : ) For god's word is powerful.........Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."
When you feel tempted to give into a lust of the flesh remember (and if your me it's too often a event, but I'm determined man I'm determined to not give into the lusts of the flesh ever again - be made fully conformable to jesus's death -- really working to let that death to the lusts of my flesh super sink in I want to be good and dead and buried w/christ) Galatians 5:24
"And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts." ..... may the lusts of my flesh be forever crucified, may I be for good buried w/christ Romans 6:4 "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." It's pry a good stench the stench of my rotting lusts of my flesh : )
I do much believe as my outer man perishes, my inner man grows. I recommend to anyone reading this blog to attend the apostolic christian church cause well their fleshes do appear to me anyways to be good and dead. Think they work hard to keep their fleshes down, it's good to crucify your flesh to it's lusts and desires. To this day I know for a fact people go to church and do the whole church I'm a christian thing and some people both don't crucify their fleshes to it's lusts and desires and don't plan on doing that either..........1 Corinthians 15:36 "Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:"
1 Corinthians 15:47-48 "The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly."
1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world."If you are wondering yep I do enjoy being some radical for jesus : ) satan has like 8 billion followers that isn't so unique, the whole who hooo I'm going to be some rebel and worship satan, whatever draw appeal that might've existed once, it's gone I think, plenty people worship satan, plenty of people go out partying and giving into the lusts of the flesh.
I prefer to keep my flesh down - being a radical for jesus in my opinion is the extreme radical thing to do these days ----- maybe not a rebel thing I'll admit ---- I see angels from time to time that's pretty cool : )
Satan's boring, satan bores me - anybody can have a puffed out ego like him and walk around whew hoo look at me I'm so gorgeous ----- It's way harder in my opinion for a person to humble themselves under the mighty hand of god that he will what raise them in due time. I wouldn't say satan is trifling ---- he just bores me ------ you bore me satan. (satan pry isn't sad though to hear this from me - he has a lot of followers you know! they are being ripped off they don't know it but they are all being utterly ripped off)
This blog post won't piss satan off though pry - hopefully my next blog post will or the one after that when my flesh is good and dead, extra get to living for jesus : ) I might even do a lot of good things ------ look out satan I might even do a lot of good things........at the very least I am absolutely hell vent to not give into the lusts of my flesh no more at all I will fellowship in christ's sufferings and be made conformable unto his death.......and pry even do a bit more even past that : )
Smith's friends believe that heeding all god's word you can crush satan under your feet ---- they so right fact, don't know if there's anything at all in all of the smith's friends doctrine I disagree w/at all? If there is I don't know about it? Romans 16:20 "And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen." I really on this blog post want to say "oooo little baby satan you need a bottle" but I ain't going to taunt satan like that - he is our adversary and he is a formiddable adversary, he got a lot of people following him or just heading to hell in general. But I want to taunt satan I do : ) it's bad, I should'nt want to say to satan "little baby satan want a bottle" satan's pretty thouroughly becoming crushed under my feet. He can be crushed under your feet on the way of life! "bruise satan under your feet shortly" crushed! Under your feet!
I think you know satan can only have power over people that give satan like some chance to uh have power over them - by giving into the lusts of the flesh, by partying, or drinking much alcohol, or doing drugs, gambling, pry even add gossiping to that list, gossiping, pride. Heeding word of god, satan get's less and less and less and less and less chances to tempt you or have any sort of power over your life and eventually heeding god's word......Romans 16:19-21 "For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. "
Luke 6:27 "But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,"............................

gossip I've decided is like dogs sniffing other dogs poop.............
I was walking my dog, and man dogs love to sniff other dogs poop, the trail we were walking on I know many dogs have trod so there was no doubt a large array of dog scents for my dog to sniff, and my dog appeared to be extremely determined to sniff every single one of those 8 billion dog scents along the trail! I sat there thinking why, why, why do dogs like sniffing the scent from each other's poop so much? Why is this such a beloved activity of dogs? -- I have not the answer to this mystery of the cosmos : ) but I decided that is what gossip is like.......dogs sniffing other dogs poop.....people on this earth are fasinated with gossip I think, it's all over the tabloids gossip is. I did a topical search on "gossip" at biblegateway.com this pretty good verse.......Leviticus 19:16 "Do not go about spreading slander among your people. Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor's life. I am the LORD." I need to do this verse like for good 1 Corinthians 4:13 "when we are slandered, we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world." Think on the good instead or just not stew on the negative in general, just "answer kindly". Ephesians 2:6 "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:" Gossip it is like a dog sniffing another dog's poop whether you or I am reading gossip and all enjoying it or "spreading slander" gossiping myself, speaking evil about anyone anywhere! Sitting in the "heavenly places" speaks to me to of thinking on the things that are above! Colossians 3:1 "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God." IF YE THEN BE RISEN WITH CHRIST (not in the dogs sniffing other dog's poop gossip land) SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE I recommend not reading the tabloids at all, best when you at the magazine rack of your local grocery store to choose like "family circle" uhhhhh "fitness" magazine magazines that aren't filled to the brim w/gossip. I'm going to work much much harder to just love people and be forgiving of people - not to slander nobody in any way shape or form no more ----- love your enemies - be raised w/christ!

The things of this world are dung compared to jesus!.........
I am determined to continue and fight the good fight of faith unto the end! Smith's friends
at salem fellowship not long ago raised a ridiculously large amount of money in the past I'd
maybe been sweating it thinking to myself "geez these people are soooo serious about jesus how
can I even compare" Not so much these days : ) 1 Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." I've been so denying myself and taking up my cross and following jesus so much crucifying my flesh to it's lusts and desires follow jesus so much I am I do believe "unmoveable" and there is such a thing as "unmoveable" it's good to be unmoveable, cause you never know when a church is going to give $200,000 or $300,000 maybe start giving away their jewelry and cars and ????? For jesus's sake.......and that could happen. I'm not sweating it none at all Galatians 5:24 "And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts." I can do that, for sure, and I can keep on doing that!
I'm gunning big time for the prize : ) There was a time it was hard to not give into the lusts of the flesh but over time I've started to not love the things of the earth anymore even I don't even love jewelry anymore - imagine that.
I am young and I could have many many many years left to follow jesus but who knows?
And time goes fast I think it's best to run this race to win the prize sooner then later so later on in life, my flesh will be extra dead I imagine, I'll be extra buried w/christ, it'll be better when I'm older if I live a long time, having run the race to win the prize clean from my youth like this. That ahhhhhhhhh feeling of yes I am christ's!!!!!!
Galatians 5:24 "And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts."
That's going to be nice I imagine super just waking up in the morning and being able to know w/myself ahhhhh I'm jesus's. I kind of feel a bit the ahhhhhhhhh I'm jesus's already : ) but I imagine that'll be extra solidified when I really old and have suffered in the flesh for many many many years like this... it'll be nice. Just so much better to not give into the lusts of the flesh, I can die going the straight and narrow without fear.......sting of death is gone following jesus..........
1 Corinthians 15
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
