Jesus prayed we'd be 'ONE' with each other in Him that the world will know! (John 17)

(Vid) AsK Keith: Is A 2-piece Bikini Un-Godly?

1 Timothy 2:9

Likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,

Proverbs 11:22

Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.

It can be forgiven — but sometimes it requires reconciliation to be in Christ and free!

If you’ve prayed a repentance prayer and still don’t feel guilt free, sometimes saying a prayer is not enough. Sometimes we must reconcile to be free, to have no condemnation:

“There is therefore now *no condemnation* to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit” – Romans 8:1

Jesus said:

If therefore you are offering your gift [lifting up ‘holy’ hands to the Lord] at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift [worshiping in Spirit and in truth].” – Mt. 5:23-24

This is why Paul was able to say:

“..I also practice always having a conscience void of offense toward God and men” – Acts 24:16.

Where we spend eternity depends on this, but reconciliation will also bring in revival (when we’re ‘ONE’ in Christ – John 17):

My 1990 Key-to-Revival Prophecy: “There is might and there is power and there is glory, but it is being withheld until these relationships are made right, until we love our brother enough to…”

…and healing:

Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.” – James 5:16a

God is waiting to pour out His grace on us when we actually do Jesus’ greatest two commandments.
If our consciences condemn us, this probably isn’t the Devil, as many pastors teach. This is the Holy Spirit warning us to get right with each other so we can be clean and FREE from guilt — ‘ONE’ with each other!
To be going-to-heaven Christians and for Jesus to fill us with His joy and peace, we must be right with each other.
Let us be ‘ONE’ “that the world will know!”

"Seeker friendly services" founder, Bill Hybels retires after sexual harassment allegations — Lust in the heart alone disqualifies leaders who "must be blameless" • "Everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart" – Jesus

It starts with lust, which Jesus calls heart-adultery, which he said we must overcome at all costs. Matthew 5:27-30:

“You have heard that it was said, ‘YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY’; but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. “If your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. “If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.

Even short, tight frontal hugs are sexual. I’ve seen pastors in Anchorage do full frontal, lingering hugs in front of everyone! Their wives and/or daughters wear low-cut tops, and post the photos on Facebook!
Most pastors are biblically disqualified for many reasons, and need to repent so real Christianity will happen “that the world will know” (Jesus’ prayer and promise in John 17):

China demolishes hundreds of churches and confiscates Bibles during a crackdown on Christianity
7 August 2018

  • Locals in Henan stated concerns of a move by the atheist ruling Community Party to control Christianity
  • Residents were asked to replace posters of the cross and Jesus Christ with portraits of President Xi Jinping
  • Experts say the government is waging the most severe systematic suppression of the religion since 1982
  • Chinese leaders have ‘always been suspicious of the political threat’ that Christianity poses to the regime

‘Chinese leaders have always been suspicious of the political challenge or threat that Christianity poses to the Communist regime,’ said Xi Lian, a scholar of Christianity in China at Duke University. ‘Under Xi, this fear of Western infiltration has intensified and gained a prominence that we haven’t seen for a long time.’

Officials once largely tolerated the unregistered Protestant house churches that sprang up independent of the official Christian Council, clamping down on some while allowing others to grow. But this year they have taken a tougher approach that relies partly on ‘thought reform’ – a phrase for political indoctrination.

Last November, Christian residents of a rural township in south-east Jiangxi province were persuaded to replace posters of the cross and Jesus Christ inside their homes with portraits of Xi, a local official said.

‘Through our thought reform, they’ve voluntarily done it,’ Qi Yan, a member of the township party committee, told the AP by phone. ‘The move is aimed at Christian families in poverty, and we educated them to believe in science and not in superstition, making them believe in the party.’  …

‘Xi is a closet Maoist – he is very anxious about thought control,’ said Willy Lam, a Chinese politics expert at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. ‘He definitely does not want people to be faithful members of the church, because then people would profess their allegiance to the church rather than to the party, or more exactly, to Xi himself.’

Various state and local officials declined repeated requests to comment. But in 2016, Xi explicitly warned against the perceived foreign threats tied to faith, telling a religion conference: ‘We must resolutely guard against overseas infiltrations via religious means.’

You Might be in the Flesh FAR More than You Think 
If you have received the Holy Spirit then every single day you keep in step with the Spirit, you deny yourself, you take up your cross and you follow Jesus with ALL of your might.  Many of us are in the flesh FAR more than we let on.  So many Christians THINK that they are being led by Jesus but they are led by THEIR OWN HEART.  They follow after the desires of the FLESH, and even though they KNOW the words of Jesus, THEY LIVE BY THEIR OWN UNDERSTANDING.  Are you really DAILY denying yourself?  From the time that you wake up are the things of Jesus on your mind? 
Is He your Father? Does He guide you, does He teach you?  Is your will completely to do the will of the FATHER IN HEAVEN?  When you lay down on your bed to fall asleep are you STILL praying?  Are you thinking about Him and His will?  Have you truly surrendered to Him?  Or are you still living for yourself? Do you call yourself a Christian yet you are not denying yourself, you are not living for the Lord? You are not keeping in step with the Spirit?  Check yourself to day.  Are you really a child of God led by the Holy Spirit?  OR ARE YOU IN THE FLESH FAR MORE THAN YOU THINK?  May the grace of Jesus be with you.

This Joyful ‘Toons 'Archery Tournament' Cartoon is NOT True – OSAS Exposed — Truth revealed how 'ONE' Will Happen "that the world will know" and we'll be so happy!

I originally wrote this in response to this cartoon being posted on Facebook.
I explain below how this cartoon is false teaching, and what the Bible really says — and how ‘ONE’ will happen “that the world will know!”
– –

Actually, there is a target we must all hit, a test we must all pass, as Paul did himself, running his race to win, working out his own salvation through fear and trembling.
Jesus said in John 15 that we, the BRANCHES must abide in the VINE, connected to Him, bearing fruit (“apart from Me you can do nothing” – v. 5), or we’ll be *cut off*, cast into the fire and burned. We must stay connected to Him, where *He wants our joy to be full!*

“*If* you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love…. I have spoken these things to you, *that my joy may remain in you*, and *that your joy may be made full*. This is my commandment, that you *love one another, even as I have* loved you.” (John 15:10-12)

The cartoonist quotes Paul in Romans 3, where Paul was saying we’re not justified by works *of the law* (“apart from the works of the law” – v. 28). Paul then goes on to say in Romans 8:1 that in order to have “no condemnation” we must abide in Christ, not walking according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit:

“There is therefore now *no condemnation* to those who are *in Christ Jesus*, who don’t *walk* according to the flesh, but *according to the Spirit*.”

He then states that we must abide in Christ to overcome to be true children of God:

“For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if *by the Spirit* you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are *led by the Spirit* of God, these are children of God.” (8:13-14)

“..we are children of God…, joint heirs with Christ; *if indeed we suffer with him*, that we may also be glorified with him. (8:16-17)

Paul practiced what he preached. He worked out his own salvation with fear and trembling, running his race to win, making sure he lived in “no condemnation” by ALWAYS being right with God and men, so he was able to publicly say: 

“Herein I also practice *always having a conscience void of offense toward God and men*” (Acts 24:16).

When a group of people live this way, able to worship God in Spirit and in truth, the long-prophesied revival, ’ONE’ will happen “that the world will know” — Jesus prayer in John 17:

“Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word, *that they may all be one*; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be *one in us; that the world may believe* that you sent me. *The glory* which you have given me, I have *given to them; that they may be one*, even as we are one; I in them, and you in me, that they may be *perfected into one; that the world may know* that you sent me, and loved them, even as you loved me.” (17:20-24)

This could easily happen in Anchorage this year, if we make sure we’re right with God and men and women.
By His grace, we can be ‘ONE’ “that the world will know” — no longer in the doldrums — overcoming together!
Praise Jesus!

How Society Reacted/Reacts to Prophets… – People don't want to hear what God says

1 Thess. 5:20 “Don’t despise prophesies.”
Gal. 4:11 He gave some to be apostles; and some, *prophets*; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds [pastors] and teachers; 12 for the PERFECTING of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ; 13 *until we all attain to the unity* of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a *full grown* man, to the measure of the stature of the *fullness of Christ*; 14 that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every *wind of doctrine*, by the *trickery* of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error; 15 but speaking truth in love, we may *grow up in all things into him*, who is the head, Christ; 16 from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.

“Feminism is essentially like ‘we love women; we fight for women, but by the way, women, everything that you naturally are, just throw that out as if it was a basket of rotten apples, and go and usurp the male role (at least in general what comes naturally to them), and then you’ll be special, then you’ll be something to be admired and aspired to.'”

Can Christians Fall From God’s Grace and Be Lost? — "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man *fail of the grace of God*; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled" – Heb. 12:14-15 • Satan prefers that we'd be complacent and unconcerned about being lost

Not one verse says we cannot lose our salvation, while there are many dozens that prove we can, such as:

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled….” – Hebrews 12:14-15

Notes and transcriptions by Jeff Fenske. Words of Rick Wiles unless noted:
44:30 “They had to invent the pre-trib rapture to justify to Christians the establishment of the state of Israel. … Why? Because the Christians have to leave in a rapture so the Zionists can rule the world from Jerusalem.”
45:10 “There is no such thing as ‘Christian Zionists.’ You can either be a Christian or a Zionist. You can’t be a ‘Christian Zionist.’ … They both contradict each other. Christianity contradicts Zionism. Zionism contradicts Christianity. … True Zionism… [was to buy back the land peacefully]. The revolutionaries, the Kabbalists, the hard core Zionists said ‘we’re not waiting. We’re going in with guns. We’re going to take it.’ That was people like Menachem Begin and Aerial Sheron. Aerial Sheron and Menachem Begin were hard core, violent, murderous terrorists. … They killed Arab children, Arab women. They raised, burned down Arab communities and villages. They were terrorists. … The ‘Christians’ in America have lined up and got married to them. And now, every Arab, every Palestinian, everybody in the Middle East, if you say “evangelical Christian,” you’re a Zionist, and you hate Arabs.
Folks, this is against the great commission. … You’re supposed to go into all the world. We’re to love all people. We’re not to show favoritism. We’re not supposed to take sides in nations, joining this group against that group. The Christians ought to be in the Middle East saying to the Palestinians and the Israeli Jews, ‘put down your arms; forgive each other; make peace with each other. This is the way of our master, Jesus Christ.’
But the ‘Christian Zionists,’ like John Hagee…, they’re nothing but paid puppeteers for the warmongers in Israel and the U.S. deep state that want bloody wars, wars of conquest. And these people are going to pay a horrible price on the day of judgment. … These people in America, in the churches that are using God’s holy church to evangelize for war, you’re an evangelist for war. You’re going to answer for it someday, on the day of judgment, and you’re going to regret that you sold out the gospel for 30 pieces of silver.”
1:00:00 South Africa: government confiscation of white-owned farmland. President Cyril Ramaphosa’s racist proclamation, South Africa will amend the constitution to legalize stealing white farmers’ land without compensation:

“..expropriation without compensation in the public interest.” “The ANC will through the parliamentary process, finalize a proposed amendment to the constitution that outlines more clearly the conditions under which expropriation of land without compensation can be affected.”

Co-host: “This man is calmly talking about taking land from one individual and giving it to another based on race.”
Taking somebody’s land, based on race is wrong, is immoral.”
1:09:00 “Nobody cares. These ‘Christian Zionists’ don’t care. They don’t care that many of these Palestinians are Christians. … These ‘Christian Zionists’ say that the Jews who don’t accept Jesus Christ — in fact, they reject Him — they are entitled by race to steal the land from the Palestinian Christians. How is that different from what they’re doing in South Africa?”
1:17:10 Mike Huckabee: “I think that if President Trump could be here today, he’d be a happy man, happy because he’s a builder. … But we are discovering that as president he’s also a builder. He’s building a New World Order…. I can’t tell you how proud I have been of the president as it relates to the land of Israel. … What’s being built here is a bridge to peace.”
1:21:40 “I wonder if the Israeli Zionists are paying off the ‘Christian Zionists’ in America with land and houses stolen from the American people. … The headline [from Israeli National News, a website] said: “WILL HUCKABEE PURCHASE A HOME IN A SETTLEMENT?”

Will Huckabee purchase a home in a ‘settlement?’

Prominent Republican, Trump confidant Mike Huckabee visits Judea community, affirming US support for construction in Judea and Samaria.

Governor Mike Huckabee, a prominent Republican and close confidant to the Trump White House, visited a building site in the Tamar neighborhood of the Judea town of Efrat [Israeli settlement in the West Bank – editor] today, offering support for continued growth of communities across Judea and Samaria. Speaking beneath a large banner reading “Build Israel Great Again”, Huckabee said that he knows the US President is similarly supportive of construction. “President Trump is naturally a builder and he would be proud to see what is going on here in Efrat.”

The Governor, known to be a staunchly supportive figure of Israel’s right to self-determination and the Jewish State’s legal presence in Judea and Samaria pointed to the construction workers around him as evidence that these communities promote rather than impede peace, “The greatest path to peace is by empowering people via economic growth and that is exactly what we are seeing each. Every single day some 1,300 Palestinian workers come into this area to build homes and are given the means to provide for their families as a result.” …

Assisting construction crews to build a supporting wall around a new home in the community, Huckabee said with a smile, “This area is so great- perhaps now’s the time to purchase a vacation home.” VIDEO
