Cast out as a branch

Once a brother was sharing with me how  he built eight Churches out of his own income to honour God and the ninth  one was  under consideration. I tried to convince him that he was doing a wrong thing because God did  not dwell in buildings any more. It is true that Solomon built a Temple for God.   But after Jesus’ death and resurrection, He dwells in the heart of human beings and no more in buildings. Wherever people worship Jesus Christ in (Church)  buildings , they are grafted to an organization and a denomination instead of being grafted into the body of  Jesus Christ.   I could not convince him.   

Few months later the same brother informed me  that  he had to vacate the “Church building” which he had built and entrusted with a  Church head, for some serious reasons. 

How truly Jesus said,

“He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.   If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned” John 15:5-8

Instead of making people abide in Jesus,  the denominational Churches make them abide into their own organization. Result? They become barren and don’t bear fruit any more.

Are you grafted into Jesus or into a Church Organization?

“In the day of great slaughter, when the towers fall, streams of water will flow on every high mountain every lofty hill”.

These days the Holy Spirit is working in lightning speed and looking for people who will cope up with his swiftness in the operation of the strategy which the Lord has dictated to transform our nation India.  The Lord has entrusted us with the ministry of equipping those who come forward to do this. “Advanced Study in the Troop Church Training” – a 30 day study of 2 hours each is meant for this.

The 34th Batch of BE FORMED AND FORM Training was held at Ranchi from 02nd May to 07th May 2016. The Lord sent nineteen persons from Ranchi to be formed and to form others in their respective places. All the trainees under-went the training and have come out with flying colors. The curriculum included the Spiritual Courses like Character Formation, methods to engage in spiritual warfare and Personal counseling. Theory and practical training sessions in the gifts of Deliverance, Healing and Prophecy were conducted which was every useful to the participants. The memorable incident of this batch is practical healing session at hospital. God’s blessings and anointing was there throughout the training period. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the teachers who have put in their best to equip these trainees.

The 35th Batch of BE FORMED AND FORM Training was held at Chennai from 04th May to 09th May 2016. The Lord sent Twenty persons from Tamil Nadu and Mumbai to be formed and to form others in their respective places.

YHWH then says in Jeremiah 23:16, “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, they lead you astray. They speak a vision of their own heart, not from the mouth of YHWH”. In Jeremiah 23:16, God is telling people, “Do not follow these false prophets, they say that they are sent by me (God), but they are not from me (God)”.

Then we read in Jeremiah 23:21, “I did not send these prophets, yet they ran. I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied”. God’s people were facing the same problem even in the time of Jeremiah. They were all being deceived by false prophets/priests. This is the same situation we have in this generation.

Jeremiah the prophet, a man sent by God, has a stern warning for today’s ministers and evangelists who claim to be appointed by God, but are not, and are appointed by men. Read the whole chapter of Jeremiah 23 to find out the judgement pronounced on modern-day ministers by YHWH.

Ezekiel the prophet was inspired by YHWH to tell a message to the shepherds of Israel who claim they are appointed by God.

“Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Yisrael, prophesy against the shepherds of Yisrael, prophesy and say to them, Thus said the Master YHWH to the shepherds, ‘Woe to the shepherds of Yisrael who have been feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock?’” (Ezekiel 34:2).

Ezekiel 34:2 is a slap on the face of modern-day ministers and evangelists. That is why when they (today’s ministers) come to Ezekiel chapter 34 they skip that chapter, because they know that God is talking about them. We have a big problem with verse 2. It says, “Should not the shepherds feed the flock?”

When was the last time the minister in your congregation asked you, “Do you have food to eat, do you need any sort of financial help from me, how can I help you to get you a job, and how can I serve you”? You will not hear this from your minister. Why? Because as long as they get fed, and they have a house to live in, that is all that counts. We strongly recommend you to read the full chapter of Ezekiel 34, as this is the judgment pronounced by God on the modern-day evangelists and ministers.

We need to ask the question, what did Yehoshua HaMashiach tell his disciples when they serve His people?  Matthew 20: 25 to 28 is an instruction that God gave to all of His true disciples on not to practice a Nicolaitan hierarchy and to be true servants.

“SIN NO MORE” (JESUS) VS. “SIN NO PROBLEM FOR JESUS” (FALSE PREACHERS) – THE PATHOLOGY OF SIN. REPEATED SINS COULD CONVERT A CHILD OF JESUS INTO A “DOG”

PATHOLOGY OF SIN

1) SIN DRIVES US AWAY FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD:

    Adam and Eve enjoyed the presence of the Lord in Eden Garden everyday. The good story came to an end the moment they committed sin and refused to repent. It is not only the case of Adam and Eve, even today, when one commits sins and does not repent, the immediate result is that such a person loses the presence of Jesus in him/her. The Holy Spirit cannot reside in a polluted environment. Amen.

     When the Holy Spirit leaves the body,evils spirits (sin) take over.

     Genesis 3:8 (NKJV) And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

          Such people open the doors to the devil to attack them. They lose the protection of the ring of fire which is promised in Zechariah 2:5. When the devil attacks with serious ailments, let the “hyper grace gospel” preachers come and heal such persons.

2. SIN MAKES US SPIRITUALLY NAKED

Why Adam and Eve hid themselves from the Lord? Shame of being naked!

     Genesis 3:10 (NKJV) So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

3. SIN BRINGS FEAR IN LIFE

     You may notice in the above verse that Adam says he was afraid as he was naked. Sin brings fear and fear is from satan. Fear leads one to hell. Those who fear have the seed of satan in them.

3a) REWARD FOR FEAR: THOSE WHO FEAR WOULD INHERIT HELL

     Revelation 21:8 (NKJV) But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

3b) PEACE AND HAPPINESS COME FROM JESUS

     John 14:27 (NKJV) Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

4) OFFER OF WHITE GARMENT FROM THE LORD FOR THE NAKED CHRISTIANS

     Revelation 3:17 (NKJV) Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— 18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.

Orissa, evangelical pastor slain and thrown under a bridge

Rourkela (AsiaNews) - The body of Abraham Biswas Surin, pastor of the Gossner Evangelical Lutheran Church (Gel) of Khunti in Jharkhand, was found dead in the state of Orissa. Reverend lay in a gutter under a railway bridge near the city of Rourkela, had his throat cut and several wounds all over his body. The incident is shrouded in mystery, since the minister was supposed to attend a meeting in Ranchi in Jharkhand, but then the victim was found in the neighboring state. Investigators have ruled this was a robbery, because the body all the personal effects were found. Sajan K George, president of the Global Council of Indian Christians (GCIC), told AsiaNews : "The murder of AB Surin pastor is a mystery. He was found with a deep gash in his throat, his body mutilated and covered with wounds to the head and stomach. The GCIC pray for the soul of the shepherd and asks God to bring consolation to the widow and family ".Biswas Surin Abraham was 64 years old and belonged to the Adivasi ethnic group. On 5 May he left his home in Khunti district, directed to Ranchi. Eliazer Topno, general secretary of the Church Gel, declares: "We are shocked by her murder. Perhaps the pastor was killed for particular reasons. We asked the Lutheran Evangelical Christians of Rajgangpur to take the matter to the police and the government of Orissa ".

Madhya Pradesh, Hindu extremists stone Protestant church

Jobat (AsiaNews) - A mob of 500 Hindu right-wing activists have attacked a Protestant church damaging the entrance and throwing stones at the faithful. The incident happened in the early hours of this morning in Jabat, in Madhya Pradesh. Hindu extremists reacted to the alleged damage to the saffron-colored flags (the symbol color of nationalists) exposed outside the church on the occasion of Ram Navmi festival ( which marks the birth of Rama).The president of the local branch of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP, the Hindu ultra-nationalist ruling party), has been reported to police on charges of riot, damage to a place of worship corruption and violence against women. Meena Chauhan, superintendent of Alirajpur district police, said that "the problems started at nine o'clock last night, when some people came to us with a complaint against Nirmal Raymind Nigam and his brother, accused of damaging the saffron flags they had placed near the church on the occasion of the festival ". The police immediately registered the complaint, by sending a patrol to arrest the two.

Meanwhile, says Pastor Emmanuel Ariel, " RSS activists [Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, the Hindu ultra-nationalist paramilitary group ed], the BJP and Bajrang Dal [youth wing of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, VHP] led by former district chief, threw stones at members of the community, attacked our women and broke the church lamps. " The most shocking thing, he adds, "is that all this happened before the eyes of the police officers, who stood by as silent spectators." The pastor denied that they the faithful of his church damaged the flags: "They were probably torn because of the wind".

According to Sajan K George, president of the Global Council of Indian Christians (GCIC), the episode confirms the deterioration of the situation: "Religious tolerance and freedom of worship in India are deteriorating and violence is increasing."The first 100 days of 2016 have already witnessed more than 50 incidents [1] of targeted violence against Christians in India

 Section 1 : The Old Testament

Semiramis

Before we look more at the city of Babylon itself, there’s a character we have to quickly introduce ourselves to - Nimrod’s wife and queen. A woman known today as Semiramis. It’s important we learn about her because in many respects, she may be an even more important figure than her husband.Like Nimrod it’s hard to get an accurate idea of Semiramis that is untainted by legend but the story goes something like this.

When Noah’s ark settled on dry land again after the flood, the eight people on board began to spread out and fill the areas of modern day Iran, Turkey and Syria.  After probably another 500 to 600 years, they spread still further to Iraq. Some reckon this was simply because of increasing populations and others say it may have had something to do with rivalries between the family lines of Shem, Ham and Japheth – Noah’s sons.  At any rate, modern archaeology confirms that the people who occupied these areas were of the same race and culture and the most reliable research indicates that it was from this region that animal husbandry, agriculture, metal work and citification spread throughout the earth. On this point, science and scripture are agreed. The only difference is the timescales involved. The Bible clearly states that these elements of civilisation existed in the pre-flood world but due to the unbelief of science, they have created a mythical stone age several millennia back in time to account for the evidence.It was in Iraq (Mesopotamia as it was referred to then) that the first major post-flood cities were built. There were seven major ones in total and the name “Land of Seven Cities” was often referred to in ancient mythology. These are the seven cities cited in the Bible as being conquered by Nimrod to establish his empire. We can gather that he probably came up from Ethiopia with his army via the gulf on boats around 1000 years after the flood.

It was in the middle of the conquest of the area that Nimrod apparently met Semiramis. Tradition has it that she was a brothel keeper in the city of Erech. Although we don’t know for certain that they met in that brothel, we can reasonably assume that their initial meeting was in quite unsavoury and seedy circumstances.
Nimrod made her his consort and his queen but of course, it wouldn’t do to have a prostitute as queen so a story was invented that she was in fact a virgin that had sprung from the sea when Nimrod came ashore on his conquest of the area. This no doubt gave her an air of mystique and intrigue. Semiramis is actually a Greek form of her name which was originally “Sammur-amat” which means “gift of the sea.

First, what is the difference between sheep and horse?

Sheep

1. The sheep needs a shepherd to guide him always.
2. Whenever hurdles or dangers comes, he needs help from the shepherd.

War Horses

1. War horse needs no leader, because he is the leader.
2. Whenever hurdles come, he easily comes out of that and needs no help.
3. No animal can catch him, because war horses easily escape from the situation.

Why do we need to know this? Because most of us are living like a sheep.

We always need a shepherd and whenever problems come we can’t solve them. We need others help. If there is any sickness or disease, we run to the shepherd.

In Exodus 16:2 & 3 Israel was grumbling against Moses and Aaron for food. Also in Exodus 15:24 &17:3 they were grumbling for Water and in Numbers 14:2 & 16:41 they were grumbling for various other reasons.

The people were grumbling for worldly things like food, water, status, etc. But why did they always grumble? 

Again and again they put God to test; and vexed the Holy One of Israel. They did not remember His power the day He redeemed them from the oppressor (Ps 78:41-42), because He led His people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron (Ps 77:20).

Bible clearly says Moses and Aaron led Israel like a flock (herd of sheep), that is why they were grumbling. Most of us grumble for status, food, and other worldly things. Because we are still like sheep.

In Exodus 20:18, 19 People of Israel feared to hear the voice of God. So they said to Moses "Speak to us yourself and we will listen. But do not have God speak to us or we will die."

 Why they spoke this way? Because they were still sheep, but Moses was the leader, the War Horse. That is why he was able to hear the voice of God.

Why did God Create a Leader or Shepherd?

Let me explain this better with a story. One day we brought a young pigeon home. We had to prepare a box for the bird or a nest for him. All that the little pigeon needed, we gave. But after a few days we saw the little pigeon dead? We could not understand why? Later we found the answer in the nest itself. All the food that we gave the little pigeon was in the nest only. The little pigeon didn’t eat, because it not know how/what to eat. That little pigeon needed help from a elder pigeon on how/what to eat. That’s why God created a leader. All food is in the bible. For the new born Christian, they don’t know how to eat that food. They need did help from an elder or a leader.

But what is happening? God is questioning the leaders. “When a farmer plows for planting, does he plow continually? Does he keep on breaking up and harrowing the soil?” (Isa 28:24)

God is giving the solution also. God says “you are always feeding that little pigeon. You never allowed him to grow.” God does not like this. God says, in Isaiah 28:25-26, “When he has leveled the surface, does he not sow caraway and scatter cumin? Does he not plant wheat in its place, barley in its plot, and spelt in its field?  His God instructs him and teaches him the right way.”

Thus says that Lord, “you are always plowing, when are you going to sow the seed.”

Problem with the leaders is that they are always feeding the sheep. That’s why people are still like that little pigeon. God wants that little pigeon grow and should go and feed other little pigeons.

Now do you understand why we are still like sheep? On the day of Pentecost, all of them were filled with mighty power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:1). Why is this not happening in our church today?

Because in the early church everybody was a leader and disciples of Jesus. But today its different.

That’s why God says, "My anger burns against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders, for the Lord Almighty will care for his flock, the house of Judah, and make them like a proud horse in the battle.” (Zechariah 10:3)

When are you going to be a war horse?
