Message for reflection – Sr.Angelica

Jesus’ friends

From Jan 21-26 a group of 16 members came from Ranchi, Orissa and Kolkata to attend the “Be Formed and Form” training. One of them was sharing  his experience.

“Sister these days I do not hear the voice of God”. I asked him  “Have you ever heard the voice of God?” .sdas

He said “Yes. I first came to the Lord in the  Shekinah Evangelization Programme. I did not know who was in charge of  conducting the programme.  While I was moving around the Lord showed one sister (in Ranchi) and told me, “This is my beloved daughter”  (Later I  came to know her responsibility in conducting Shekinah program). As we were walking along in the garden  the bell rang. The Lord asked me to go to class. I did not want  Jesus to leave me and hence hesitated to go. As Jesus  compelled me to go, I started crying like a child. He patted my shoulders and said,  Don’t cry. Don’t go to the class with a long face. Take the hanki, wipe the face and go”. The innocence in his face showed that he was not telling a lie. He continued, “Sister, I don’t hear such voices these days”. How can I hear  it again?

The childlike question made me spellbound.

“………………….but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.” John 15:15

Be Formed and Form (BFF) – Batch 22

Be Formed and Form  is a 5 day short time course. This training is a benefit to the present Church. Because our Lord Jesus Christ (Head of the Church) wants the Church to be transformed according to Ephe 5:26,27 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her as a radiant Church. Today the Church is ignorant about the will of our Lord Jesus Christ. By this BFF training , the Church awake and rises, making the world shine.

The Last batch of BFF training was held from  Jan 21st to 26, 2016.

16 participants attended from different parts of India. They were fully transformed in christ. That means their mindset about the structure of the Church was corrected. After that they take a strong direction to build the Church according to the of original pattern. Our Lord was doing miracles and wonders in his Church. They were all living the whole period of training, in the Most high God presence. They were all received many revelations form God. Now a call for you. Come!! And sit to know I am the Lord. You will be changed according to the will of God.

Next Tamil Batch will be held from  Feb 02nd to 07, 2016    

English Batch from Feb 9th to 14, 2016

Be Formed and Form (BFF) Testimonies shared in Troop Fellowship Meeting – GOA

Oliver:

Since Oct’15, every time I would think of BFF, there was something coming up and I had to postpone my visit. This time I had to go and attended the BFF. It was a good experience.

Due to my return ticket I had to visit another person on my way to Bangalore, so I asked God what can I give him and I prayed over.  After some time, this friend of mine got a call from his company and said he will be getting his salary along with long due payments / arrears and his salary was revised and released after my prayers.

Rolland:

We think we know a lot, but this BFF experience for me was totally different, it was a deeper experience, to know revelations, secrets, more anointing. Made me detached from my family. It has changed and helped me.

Shankar:

First time travelled by flight. It was beautiful from top. I was thinking how beautiful will heaven be.

I can’t speak good English, but at BFF I was able to share my experience in English and everyone could understand. I praise God , He helped me.

Tithes : After attending BFF I understood about Tithes. I often used to think where and whom to give the tithes which me and my wife had kept. After praying I asked a friend where can I get a laptop and now I have purchased a laptop which I can use  for God’s work.

Assis :

After coming from Chennai, I faced a lot of persecutions. The same night I was fighting with a lady devil, then I saw a small child coming after me like a dog. My whole body was tight/stiff. I knew it was a spiritual warfare in my dream.

If anything has to take place, suffering is a must.

I have come across different doctrines, gospels. My questions were answered at BFF.

Why people trouble believers : Gen 3:14, 3:19

Anointing service at BFF : I got a vision and I saw different instruments in gold, they were rotating, but no one was playing the instruments. Then I saw streamers from heaven coming down, all in gold. As soon as the Anointing service was over, it all went up.

Francis Alvares :

After 31 years I had a good experience again.  Fresh touch, fresh love filled with Holy Spirit. Very powerful anointing. I went like stone, I became a living stone now. We need to pray for new people, who are on fire for God. Any decision we take, we need to pray. I was crying and God was molding me.

In our troop, one lady had a slayed in the spirit after praying over her, she became alright.

William :

I didn’t know what to do , but I was sure I wanted to do something for the Lord. What is God’s will in my life.  He knows whats best in my life. After coming from BFF, I wanted to start the troop, but did not know how to go about. Finally, I have started with my family on Fridays we sit for troop meeting.

Patsy :

When I was ready to  attend BFF , it was raining in Chennai, My home people were asking me to cancel my ticket, but I went ahead with my plans for BFF . We were only 2 students for BFF. Sr. Angelica also wanted to cancel the BFF but as she prayed she got a message these 2 are like 200 people. So BFF was as per schedule for only 2 students.  On the last day I felt little sleepy and got this message Eph. 6 Amour of God and I was sure going to Chennai for BFF was to mold me.

Christian News around the country

Israel: Archaeologists Uncover Inscriptions in Jesus’ Language

Archaeologists in Israel have uncovered ancient epitaphs in both Greek and Aramaic which date back to the first century. CBN News reports that the inscriptions were found in a cemetery which is located in the ancient Galilean capital city of Zippori. “Zippori was the first capital of Galilee from the time of the Hasmonean dynasty until the establishment of Tiberias in the first century CE. The city continued to be central and important later on,” researchers explained in a press release announcing the discovery. Four words which are part of the inscriptions were thus far able to be decoded. One word, in Greek, means “Jose,” a common Jewish name during the period, the three other words are Aramaic for “the Tiberian,” “forever,” and “rabbi.”

Motti Aviam of the Kinneret Institute for Galilean Archaeology stated that “the Tiberian” could refer to the hometown of the deceased, Tiberias. The word “forever” denotes that the deceased’s burial place will always belong to him. Scholars are unsure precisely what the word “rabbi” meant at the time of its inscription. This discovery is important because it proves the existence of a Jewish community in the region from ancient times–something which the Palestinian Authority continually denies. “The Jewish life in the city was rich and diverse as indicated by the numerous ritual baths (miqwe’ot) discovered in the excavation; while at the same time the influence of Roman culture was also quite evident as reflected in the design of the town with its paved streets, colonnaded main roads, theater and bathhouses. The wealth of inscriptions from the cemeteries attests to the strong Jewish presence and the city’s social elite in the late Roman period,” researchers concluded.

China: Controversy Emerges When Church Expands into Confucius’ Hometown

Ancient Chinese Confucianism is being confronted by Christianity as conflict arises over a Christian church looking to expand in a region that is known as Confucius’ hometown. TIME.com reports that Confucius’ hometown of Qufu in eastern China’s Shandong province has long been a bastion of ancient Chinese spirituality. Though China’s Communist party has tried to eradicate religion in the past, Confucianism is seeing a rebirth in China, just as many Christians are being persecuted and their churches demolished. The presence of a Christian church less than two miles from Qufu’s main Confucian temple is currently sparking debate.

One prominent Confucian scholar, Zeng Zhenyu, believes that a Christian church has no place so close to the sacred spot of Confucius’ hometown.

“Qufu in China is like Jerusalem and Mecca,” Zeng, a professor at Shandong University’s Advanced Institute for Confucian Studies, told TIME. “It’s the Chinese people’s spiritual home.” You can build churches in other places,” he continued. “But you can’t build them in Qufu, an iconic and holy spiritual place for the Chinese people.”  Others, however, such as neo-Confucian Chen Ming, believe that Confucian philosophy welcomes all with peace. “It’s inappropriate to escalate the dispute into a conflict between Confucianism and Christianity, like a clash of civilizations,” he told TIME.

TEACHING: Arise and Shine – Dont sit and cry – Dr. Arun

One Morning as I was reading Jesus suffering / crucifixion / cross

I started to cry thinking about the torture He indured for me / us.

Minutes later I heard an inner voice:

📌”Why are you crying thinking about my suffering for you? You have to think about the Great Commission I have commanded you.

 📌I am the Living God positioned right inside you, I am no more on the Cross. Instead of looking at me inside you you are looking at the Cross and crying.

 📌If your love for me is true  you will keep my commandment of Love and work on discipleship-(John14-15, 1John5-3)

 📌I am the God of mercy and grace, and I do not expect tears (crying looking @ theCross) from you,

I expect your Obedience and love by doing what I said (1Sam 15-22)”

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I was completely shaken hearing this, because this is the written treeth.

We are not Tammuz generation to sit and cry at the north gate of the temple. (Ezekiel 8-14)

We are the Royal Priesthood, Heir-ship and Authority holders and Warriors of the Kingdom (Mark 12:33, 1Peter2-9).🔥

From that moment, I started to look at Jesus inside me with the Word – My life Changed.

His Word says – I do not expect your offerings or sacrifice , I expect you to love me and carry audience my mission in Go make disciples all over the world baptise them in the name of Father Son and Holy Spirit.

(Matthew 28-19)

Anyone who blocks you from carrying out His Great Commission cannot be from the Holy Spirit.

If it’s not from the Holy Spirit – you know the answer. Think about it,

Shake off your dust, Arise Shine and Inherit ✌👍🙏

TEACHING: WHO IS A FOOLISH MAN? – Bro.C.Umashankar IAS

“FOOLISH MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE SAND”

  Who are these foolish men who built their house on the sand?

  Just take a look at the man made traditions in the churches. Wherever such man made traditions are there, they are places of foolish men. Those who have prescribed these traditions and the followers, both of them are foolish. Because both of them miss out the Kingdom of Heaven at the end.

  Child baptism followed by “Conformation” lint day fact , harvest festival , Christmas carols Devotion to Mary and saints, veneration for statues and pictures etc , are all traditions not based on the word of God or just contrary to the commandments of God

  In verse 26, the Lord calls them all “foolish men (and women)”.

CONCLUSION:

     The Lord has clearly defined the foundation for a solid spiritual life that can fetch one the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus, Jesus alone is the foundation. None else and nothing else. If anyone builds his/her spiritual life on the foundation of Jesus (His word), he/she will be called wise. Rest of the crowd is called “foolish” by Jesus Himself.

     Do you think Heaven is a place for this type of fools?

Work of Nicolaitans (Contd)

The Bible says of a time of restoration of all things (Acts 3:21), which means going back to the original phase of creation. We believe that this has already begun, as this age in which we live closes for the grand finale of the return of the Righteous King and Saviour. The choice is before us. Do we follow men or the voice of YHWH who we hear through Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), the comforter of YHWH which will lead and guide us in all truth? This is the test of faithfulness, whether we will follow the twisted teachings of men or the righteous word of YHWH. You choose your path.

From the law of creation, we can learn that there was never a hierarchy put in place. Man and woman walked with God and listened to the voice of God. Because we chose to listen to the serpent (false prophets/teachers), judgment was pronounced by God. This is why God’s faithful people can never be part of a system, church, government, and synagogue. They live a life of obedience to their Master and are ruled by their Master Yehoshua HaMashiach and are led into the truth by the Ruach HaKodesh.

How many times do we find the word “government” in the scriptures/Bible?

Let’s check how many times the word “government(s)” is mentioned in the Bible. If God indeed created a government or hierarchy in the church for men to rule over us, we can be confident that we will find many instances where the word “government(s)” is mentioned in the scriptures.

Word Chapter and Verse Concordance number
government Isaiah 9:6 4951
government Isaiah 9:7 4951
government Isaiah 22:21 4475
government 2 Peter 2:10 2963
governments 1 Corinthians 12:28 2941

Going through the whole scriptures/Bible, we find that the word “government(s)” is mentioned only five times. We now have a big problem. In the whole Bible, how can this word be mentioned only five times?

We will now look at the verses from the scriptures where this word  is mentioned in its chronological order.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6).

“Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this” (Isaiah 9:7).

“And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah” (Isaiah 22:21).

“But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities” (2 Peter 2:10).

“And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues” (1 Corinthians 12:28).
