The Body Of Christ Versus The World (Satan’s World)!

Acts 5:29

BUT Peter, And The OTHER Apostles, Answered And Said: “WE (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) OUGHT TO OBEY GOD (GOD Almighty), Rather Than Men!”

We (Fellow Believers, Children Of GOD Almighty, The Body Of Christ) Are TO Be “IN The World” BUT NOT, “Of The World!”  When It Comes, To THE WORD Of GOD (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), We Do NOT Waiver, AND We Do NOT Compromise, EVER!  We MUST Stand Firm, IN THE FAITH Of The Gospel Of Jesus Christ!  We Must RISE UP, To The Height Of The Bar, Set By Jesus Christ’s Disciples!  AFTER Jesus Christ’s Ascension, HIS Disciples Could Have Easily, “Given In”, Compromised, And Become “Of The World”; BUT, The True Test, For Them, Was NOT What They Did, When Jesus Was With Them, BUT, What They Did, When Jesus Was Gone, AFTER HIS Ascension!

Ephesians 1:13

IN HIM (Jesus Christ), YOU (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Also, TRUSTED, AFTER YOU HEARD, THE WORD Of TRUTH, THE GOSPEL Of YOUR SALVATION (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ); IN WHOM (Jesus Christ) Also, Having BELIEVED, YOU (Fellow Believers) Were SEALED (FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER), With The Holy Spirit Of Promise!

Fellow Believers, Jesus Christ’s Disciples, HELD Their Ground, For Their Entire Lives, Even Up To, And Including, Their Deaths!  So, What Can We Learn, From Their Example; The Answer: We Must NOT Compromise, When It Comes, To Serving GOD Almighty And Jesus Christ, PERIOD!  When IT Comes, To The Holy Bible, AND Specifically The Gospel Of Jesus Christ; When IT Comes, To Standing Up, For GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, And The Holy Spirit; When IT Comes, To Jesus Christ’s Commandments; When IT Comes, To The Lines Of Sin, We MUST Hold Our Ground; Just As, Jesus Christ, Himself, DID, And Just As, Jesus Christ’s Disciples DID; We MUST Have The Same Tenacity, As They DID, WITHOUT Wavering!

Remember, GOD Almighty And Jesus Christ DO NOT CHANGE; THEY Are The Same, Yesterday, TODAY, Tomorrow, And FOREVER; AND THEIR WORD (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), ABIDES, FOREVER!

Now, Does This Mean, It Will Be Easy, On the Contrary . . .

Ephesians 6:12

For We (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Do NOT Wrestle (Spiritually Battle) Against Flesh And Blood (i.e. Mankind), BUT, (We Spiritually Battle) AGAINST Principalities, AGAINST Powers, AGAINST The Rulers Of The Darkness Of THIS Age, AGAINST Spiritual HOSTS Of Wickedness, IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES (i.e. We Spiritually Battle, AGAINST Satan, The Fallen Angels, And Demons)!

John 15:18-21, 23

Jesus Answered, And Said To Him, “IF The World (Satan’s World) Hates YOU (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), YOU Know, That IT (The World) Hated ME (Jesus Christ), BEFORE, IT HATED YOU!  IF YOU (Fellow Believers) Were Of The World (Satan’s World), The World (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Would Love ITS Own!  YET, Because YOU (Fellow Believers) Are NOT Of The World (Satan’s World), BUT, I (Jesus Christ) CHOSE YOU, OUT Of The World (Satan’s World), Therefore, The World Hates YOU (Fellow Believers)!  Remember The Word That I (Jesus) SAID TO YOU, ‘A Servant (Fellow Believers) Is NOT Greater, Than HIS MASTER (Jesus Christ)!’  IF They Persecuted ME (Jesus Christ), They (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Will Also, Persecute YOU (Fellow Believers)!  IF They (Fellow Believers) Kept MY WORD (The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), They Will Keep Yours, Also!  BUT, ALL THESE THINGS, They (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Will DO TO YOU (Fellow Believers), FOR MY NAME’S SAKE (Jesus Christ), Because They Do NOT Know HIM (GOD Almighty), WHO SENT ME (Jesus Christ)!  He (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers), Who Hates ME (Jesus Christ), Hates MY FATHER (GOD Almighty), Also!”

1 Corinthians 2:12-13

Now, We (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Have RECEIVED, NOT The Spirit Of The World (Satan), BUT (We Have Received) THE SPIRIT (The Holy Spirit), WHO IS, FROM GOD (GOD Almighty), That We (Fellow Believers) Might Know The (Spiritual) Things, That Have Been FREELY GIVEN, To Us, BY GOD (GOD Almighty)!  These (Spiritual) Things, We (Fellow Believers) Also SPEAK, NOT IN WORDS, Which Man’s Wisdom Teaches (THROUGH Satan), BUT (IN Words) Which, The Holy Spirit TEACHES (Us, Fellow Believers), Comparing Spiritual Things, With Spiritual (Things)!

Colossians 2:8-10, 20, 22b

Beware, Lest Anyone (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Cheat YOU (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Through Philosophy And Empty Deceit (THROUGH Satan), According To The Tradition Of Men (THROUGH Satan), According To The Basic Principles Of The World (Satan’s World); And NOT According To Christ!  For IN HIM (Jesus Christ) DWELLS, All The Fullness Of The GODHEAD (GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, And The Holy Spirit), BODILY; And YOU (Fellow Believers) Are COMPLETE, IN HIM (Jesus Christ), WHO IS THE HEAD Of All Principality (Rule And Authority), And Power!  Therefore, IF YOU (Fellow Believers) Died With Christ, From The Basic Principles Of The World (Satan’s World); WHY, AS THOUGH LIVING, IN The World (Satan’s World), Do YOU Subject Yourselves To Regulations (THROUGH Satan), According To The Commandments And Doctrines Of Men (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers, THROUGH Satan)?

James 4:4

Adulterers And Adulteresses!  DO YOU (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) NOT KNOW That Friendship With The World (Satan’s World), IS Enmity With GOD (GOD Almighty)?  Whoever (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Therefore, Wants To Be A Friend Of The World (Satan’s World), Makes Himself, An Enemy Of GOD (GOD Almighty)!

1 Peter 5:8-9

BE SOBER (Spiritually Alert), BE VIGILANT (Be Watchful); Because, Your Adversary (THE Adversary), The Devil (Satan), Walks About Like A Roaring Lion, Seeking Whom, He May Devour!  Resist Him (Satan), Steadfast (Firm), IN THE FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), KNOWING, That The Same Sufferings (Spiritual Attacks) Are Experienced, By Your Brotherhood (Fellow Believers), IN The World (Satan’s World)!

1 John 2:15-17

Do NOT Love The World (Satan’s World), OR The Things, IN The World!  IF Anyone (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Loves The World (Satan’s World), THE LOVE Of THE FATHER (GOD Almighty), Is NOT In Him!  For All That IS, IN The World (Satan’s World) — The Lust Of The Flesh (THROUGH Satan), The Lust Of The Eyes (THROUGH Satan), And The Pride Of (This) Life (THROUGH Satan) — IS NOT Of THE FATHER (GOD Almighty), BUT IS Of The World (THROUGH Satan)!  And The World (Satan’s World) IS Passing Away, And The Lust Of IT; BUT He (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), Who Does THE WILL Of GOD (GOD Almighty), ABIDES FOREVER!

1 John 4:4-6

YOU ARE Of GOD, Little Children (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), And Have Overcome Them (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers); Because, HE (GOD Almighty), WHO IS IN YOU (Fellow Believers), IS Greater Than, He (Satan) Who Is, IN The World (Satan’s World)!  They (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Are Of The World (Satan’s World)!  Therefore, They Speak, AS Of World (Satan’s World), And The World (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers) Hears Them!  We (Fellow Believers) ARE Of GOD (GOD Almighty)!  He (Fellow Believers), WHO KNOWS GOD (GOD Almighty), HEARS Us; He (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers), Who Is NOT Of GOD, Does NOT Hear Us!  BY THIS, We (Fellow Believers) KNOW, THE SPIRIT Of TRUTH (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), AND The Spirit Of Error (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers – Children Of Satan)!

2 Corinthians 6:2b-10

BEHOLD, NOW IS, THE ACCEPTED TIME; BEHOLD, NOW IS, THE DAY Of SALVATION!

We (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Give NO Offense, IN Anything, That Our Ministry May NOT Be Blamed!  BUT, IN ALL THINGS, We (Fellow Believers) Commend Ourselves, As Ministers Of GOD (Ambassadors For Christ): IN Much Patience (IN Endurance), IN Tribulations, IN Needs, IN Distresses, IN Stripes, IN Imprisonments, IN Tumults (IN Uproars), IN Labors, IN Sleeplessness, IN Fastings; BY Purity, BY Knowledge, BY Longsuffering, BY Kindness, BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, BY Sincere Love, BY THE WORD Of TRUTH (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), BY THE POWER Of GOD (GOD Almighty), BY THE ARMOR Of RIGHTEOUSNESS (The Whole ARMOR Of GOD Almighty) On The Right Hand And On The Left, BY Honor AND Dishonor, BY Evil Report AND Good Report; As Deceivers, And YET, True; As Unknown, And YET, Well Known; As Dying, And Behold, We LIVE; As Chastened, And YET, NOT Killed; As Sorrowful, YET,  Always Rejoicing; As Poor, YET, Making Many Rich; As Having NOTHING, And YET, POSSESSING ALL THINGS (EVERLASTING LIFE – IN GOD Almighty’s Immediate Presence, With Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, And All The Rest Of The Children Of GOD Almighty, FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER)!

Fellow Believers, Many Things Are Wrong, And They Are Always Wrong; From Murder (Especially, The Murder Of Yet-To-Be-Born Children) To Sexual Immorality (i.e. Adultery, Bestiality, Incest, Pedophilia, Pornography, Prostitution, Sex Between Two Men, Sex Between Two Women, Sex Between Mankind And Machines, i.e. Sex Robots, Virtual Reality Devices, etc., Sodomy, Transgenderism (Including, Transgender Surgery), etc.; And We, As The Body Of Christ, MUST Stand Firm, On All Of These Issues, And More; Just As Jesus Christ, Himself, DID, And Just As, Jesus Christ’s Disciples DID, WHO WERE BEFORE Us!

Ephesians 4:4-6, 11-15

THERE IS: ONE BODY (The Body Of Christ) AND ONE SPIRIT (The Holy Spirit), Just As, YOU (Fellow Believers) Were CALLED (To Be Children Of GOD Almighty), IN ONE HOPE (Of EVERLASTING LIFE) Of Your Calling; ONE LORD (Jesus Christ), ONE FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), ONE BAPTISM (With The Holy Spirit); ONE GOD AND FATHER Of ALL (GOD Almighty), WHO IS, ABOVE ALL, AND THROUGH ALL, AND IN YOU ALL (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty)!

And HE (Jesus Christ) Himself, Gave Some (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), TO BE Apostles, Some Prophets, Some Evangelists, And Some Pastors, And Teachers; For The Equipping Of The Saints (Fellow Believers), For The Work Of Ministry, For The Edifying Of THE BODY Of CHRIST; Till We All (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Come, To THE UNITY Of THE FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ); And Of The Knowledge Of THE SON Of GOD (Jesus Christ), To A Perfect Man, To The Measure Of The Stature Of THE FULLNESS Of CHRIST; THAT We (Fellow Believers) Should NO Longer Be Children, Tossed To And Fro, And Carried About, With Every Wind Of (FALSE) Doctrine (THROUGH Satan), By The Trickery Of Men (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers), IN The Cunning Craftiness Of Deceitful Plotting (THROUGH Satan); BUT, SPEAKING THE TRUTH (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), IN LOVE, May Grow Up (Spiritually), IN All Things, INTO HIM, WHO IS THE HEAD — CHRIST!

Folks, We MUST Teach The Entire Holy Bible, Including, And Especially, Holy Bible Prophecy, Which IS, Our Blessed Hope!

Fellow Believers, The Pressure To Accept Sin, Such As, Proclaiming The Murder Of Yet-To-Be-Born Children, As A Basic Human Right, Alternative Lifestyles And Families (i.e. The LGBTQ+ Community, And In Turn, Same Sex Unions), Transgenderism (And In Turn, Transgender Surgery), DNA Manipulation, Artificial Intelligence And Its Usage, etc., As Being Normal, And Acceptable, IS Growing, At An All Too Alarming Rate!

And Now, The Most Vile YET, Gender Confusion – The Ultimate Confusion – For An Individual NOT To Comprehend, The Most Basic Concept Of Humanity, Of What It Truly Means, TO Be Born, Biologically (i.e. Genetically), A Male Human Being (With Male Sexual Organs), OR TO Be Born, Biologically (i.e. Genetically), A Female Human Being (With Female Sexual Organs), AND TO Remain, As Such, As GOD Almighty Intended.

Romans 8:31

What Then, Shall We Say To These Things?  IF GOD (GOD Almighty) IS FOR Us (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty), WHO CAN BE AGAINST Us?

YES, THIS IS Satan’s World, And We Live, IN Satan’s World; BUT, We Are NOT, Of Satan’s World!  And GOD Almighty’s WORD (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), Makes IT Perfectly Clear; That IF Anyone, Wants To Be A Friend Of The World (Satan’s World), He OR She Makes Himself, An Enemy Of GOD Almighty!

Finally, Fellow Believers, We Must, NOT ONLY, RISE UP, To The Height Of The Bar, Set By Jesus Christ’s Disciples; BUT RAISE IT, Even Higher; Proclaiming, To The World (Satan’s World), THAT WE STAND FIRM, IN THE FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ); And We Do NOT, And Will NOT Compromise, EVER; AND WE STAND, With GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, And The Holy Spirit, IN The Whole ARMOR Of GOD Almighty, AND Together, As THE BODY Of CHRIST!

Fellow Believers, Until The Being Caught Up Together OCCURS . . .

Remember, Jesus Christ ABIDES WITHIN Us, THROUGH The Holy Spirit; Therefore, Jesus Christ WALKS WITH Us, The Holy Spirit TEACHES Us, And Most Importantly, GOD Almighty WATCHES OVER Us, Always!

Wherever YOU Are, Wherever YOU Go, Whatever YOU Do; Be It, In The Natural Physical World, OR In Cyber World; May OUR LORD Jesus Christ, Find YOU, Going About THE FATHER’S BUSINESS, Which IS, Sharing The Gospel Of Jesus Christ, As A Good And Faithful Servant!  Amen.
