Praise Jesus today. Everyone. It is a blessing to be with Jesus, even if there aren't people that agree with us, whether there are, not to take their flattery, but to just take the words that come from our Lord, that we can be guided by Him. If we take accusations from people, then we will be torn down instead of built up by the Holy Spirit. But likewise, if we take praises of men, we will become prideful instead of humble before God. So whatever circumstance you're in, whether you're on the verge of becoming prideful or being depressed, you have to surrender that to the Lord. Surrender your attitude to the Lord, and Jesus will build you up in his righteousness and put his mind in his heart in you. And He will give you his Holy Spirit to teach you all things. We want to just stay humble before Him, so that we can be used for his purpose, that we will be able to speak as He guides us and go the way that He leads us. Yeah, praise Jesus. I see your guys comments coming up. I wanted to speak about a dream that I had as I was waking up in the morning, that has to do with things that are relevant today, and what has been going on in the so-called Christian Church, which is actually the synagogues of Satan, as we read about it in Revelation. But the organized churches of today, of course, they have to keep their professional status, their 501(c) (3), which is their tax exempt status, and they have to an extent politically correct, or at least correct enough that, the pastors will be supported by the laity, that is, the church members. Now, obviously, not all churches agree with one another, and there's a bunch of differences, and some are more biblical than others. But, no matter what the church is, the pastor has to be supported by the people. And the issue with that is, as soon as the pastor is working for you and not working for God, then he becomes a man pleaser. You know, in a typical business, you want to please your customers. Your customers are your boss. So if you clean houses, the owner of the house is the boss, and if you do a poor job, you'll be fired. But with working with Jesus, we don't work for the laity. We don't work for the church. We work for Jesus Christ. He is our leader and our teacher. And the issue is, most pastors are working for the church. They're working for the man. And they think that they're doing good before God, because they're keeping those people pleased. They've built their business just like any other business, and, they've made people their employer. But as disciples of Jesus, brothers and sisters in the Lord, we're not seeking to please men. We're not seeking to to work for them, but we work for God. And as we work for Him and love Him 1st, then He shows us how to bring his love to others, even if it's upsetting. Remember that Jesus offended the Pharisees all the time, because He would tell them the truth, and they were in the opposition to God. Well, last night, the Holy Spirit gave me a certain dream, and I want to share it with you just for edification, so that those of us that are part of the lord's true Church, will not fall into sin or fall into the falsehood that the Christian churches in today. So in my dream, I was at this big church gathering. It was like an outside amphitheatre, but it also had an inside portion to the mega church. And, there was a pastor there that was also like a mega church pastor. And this pastor of this big church that had maybe thousands of people in it, had invited an Islamic community to come to the church gathering to do worship on Sundays. And, I found myself there on the day of their meeting, on the day that they were going to do worship, and I saw all these Islamic men, and they had all brought their mats, because, you know, they have mats that they all kneel on to pray to the east. So all of their, all of their praying mats, were faced, all in one direction, all aligned to the east, and it was slightly off kilter to where the front stage was, because all the Christians worshipped directly towards the front of the stage,because they believed that that's where God resided, right at the front of the stage, whereas all the Islamic community, the Muslims that were in the same church, were off kilter with other maps, of course, to the east.So I found myself near the front of this supposed sanctuary, right during the time of the start of worship.And it reminded me of the time of Daniel and king Nebyannezzar, where everyone was to bow down to the image, you know, and, it was like I was Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. And all of the pastors in the church told the congregation that at the time the worship starts, everyone needs to bow down, and either face, you know, like the front, towards the stage, or to the east. So everyone, bows down as the worship starts. And all of the Islamic men, they bow to the east, and they go fully face down on their mats, like how you see in the pictures and everything. Now, the Christians, when they bowed, they just were on their knees. And I noticed that the pastor himself didn't bow with his head all the way down, but he just, took a knee, like how a football player would during the national anthem. So not in full reverence to the Islamic God, but not in full reverence to there God either. It was like a compromise. So somewhere in between praying to the East and praying to the stage, and not fully submitted either to Allah or to Jehovah. So I noticed the pastors were doing that, and, in my dream, I knew I can't bow to either. So in my dream, I found myself standing, but instead of bowing, I was at a full salute. I was standing and also saluting, and totally upright, and the way I was facing was the, the opposite direction than any of the people were praying, either to the stage or to, the Islamic God. So while I was doing this, I felt a little bit of of, maybe fear, like what people are gonna think, but I also knew, that I wasn't going to face what Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego did of, you know, being cast into the fire. I knew that it was just, if I was scared, it was the fear of what people thought. So I overcame that, and I continued to just stand in a salute. And, after this happened, after the time of worship was done, some people approached me, and they were angry that I was facing the other way, and that I wasn't bowing down to the Christian stage or the Islamic god. And, there was a chair that was brought for me to sit in, and, this chair was like a throne. And, I remember the pastors of the church were upset, and one of the members of the church came up and said, "you have put yourself or you think that you deserved this this chair, which is the best chair in the church, because you didn't obey and bow down." And I remember thinking, like, I didn't ask for this chair. This chair came out of nowhere, and I didn't choose to sit in this chair. All I did was stand up for for Jesus, and I stood at a salute for Him, not bowing down to your God. And I told them in my dream that the reason why I got the chair that you think is the best in the church, is because I wasn't like you, and I didn't bow down to the false Islamic god, nor did I bow down to the false Christian worship of the stage. And so the people were very upset, and what I did was I just walked out of the church. I walked out of their gathering, and when I walked out, I saw a bunch of people that were just on the street, and I felt led to preach the Gospel to them. And these people were people kind of like me, because often the Holy Spirit shows us things and dreams that relate to us. And so I've always been into things like snowboarding and skateboarding and, you know, having fun with that. And when I went outside, I saw a bunch of people, like, riding bikes like BMX or skateboards or roller blades or whatever. And I just hung out with those kids, and, I found I just looked for opportunities to talk to Jesus with them. And that was the end of my dream. But that dream is very much like reality, because the Christian Church has bowed down to the false idea of Jesus, and they have also tried to make a god that is accepting of all religions. There's even been churches that came out to say that Allah is the same as Jehovah, and other churches have come out to say that, the homosexual god is OK to worship. And so they literally worship a god that they say accepts their homosexual behavior and accepts all religions. They make no distinction between perversion, perverted faith, false gods and the true God. If we don't take a stand, and if we're cowards, Jesus will also be ashamed of us. Because Jesus says specifically that if we're not ashamed of Him, then He's not going to be ashamed to proclaim us before his father and the Holy Angels. But if we're embarrassed of the Gospel, if we're ashamed to take a stand when it comes to that point in our life, He's also going to be ashamed of us, and He's going to reject us. And a lot of Christians are rejecting Jesus because they fear men. Now, there's been times in my life, guys where I have also, feared what people thought, because I wanted, you know, I wanted people to like me. I don't want people to be upset. I don't want people to be angry. I don't want to make enemies. I'm just like you or anyone else. But I do fear God, and I fear God much more than I fear what people think. You know, one time, Jesus gave me this dream, and this was years ago now, probably approaching like ten years ago. And in my dream, I was in my town, and I had gotten out of high school, and it was like I was back in high school, you know, and I saw Jesus walking down the street, but Jesus didn't look like anyone else. He was shining, and He was also wearing white robes, and He looked really, obviously different. He looked old school. He wasn't wearing a T-shirt and, and blue jeans. He wasn't cool. And and when I saw Jesus in my dream at 1st, I was a little bit scared to associate with Him, because I knew He didn't fit the mold of what all the people thought was cool in high school. So I walked on the other side of the street, the next thing that happened in my dream was Jesus was in my face. He was right in front of me, and He said, "are you also ashamed of me and my gospel?" And I remember, in my dream, being close to tears, because I knew I did not ever want to be ashamed of Jesus and his gospel. And from that day forward, I have been working my hardest to push down the flesh, to push down anything that tries to make me feel ashamed or too cool for Jesus, or trying not to associate with Jesus, because that's not what, what's acceptable in the culture. You know, if we stand up for Jesus, people think that, we're childish, that you know, they just don't think we're socially acceptable. But I don't care about that. I choose to push down the flesh on that, because if we're not gonna be proud to have Jesus in our life and accept Him as our Lord, and to boast in his love, as Paul says, to boast in Him as his righteousness is in us. If we're ashamed of Him, He's also going to be ashamed of us, and He's going to reject us when we stand before Him. We need to proclaim Him with our mouth and with our actions. And when those situations come where Satan tests us to see if if we will deny Jesus, like how Peter denied Him out of fear or out of respect for men, rather respect that rather respect to God, then we're going to fail that test. And we don't want to fail and deny Jesus or reject Him or betray Him. We want to make sure that we overcome these tests in life. And when Satan comes against us that were bold to stand against him, no matter what we have to do. So I want to encourage you not to be part of what the modern Church is doing, which is accepting false religion, accepting sin, accepting homosexuality, saying that it's okay to be lustful, to have the spirits of lust and false worship, to be idolizing musicians on the stage, to be idolizing people that look good on the outside, but who are perverted on the inside. Following Jesus is not about going to church or bowing down to the Christian god or the Islamic god. Following Jesus is about bringing ourselves before his throne, his feet, bowing before Him, and making Jesus Christ our only teacher. And if we make Jesus our only teacher, then, we'll be upright. We won't be hunched over bowing to Satan at all. We won't be like the pastors in church who are half bowed to Satan, and then also trying to bow to God, like the guy in my dream who was trying to compromise . If we are truly born again, we will be standing upright and not bowing down at all, like how Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego were not bowing down to the false image. We will only bow before Jesus Christ in prayer. We will worship Jesus. We will honor Him, and we will praise Him. Because Jesus and his father are One. Jesus is not a lower God, He's not a lesser God. But Jesus, the father and the Holy Spirit, are One. And so if we want to really know Him, we have to just sit before Him, worship Him and please Him and respect Him. Without being a respector of all religions and all truths, of course, we respect people, but, we don't go around pretending that, it's okay that, people worship Islam, or worship God and follow the way of homosexuality, or just simply worshipping themselves. A lot of Christians think that they can honor God and follow money and follow after all their lusts, and that is bringing a lot of people to hell as well. You know, people worship themselves, but if we truly are going to live for the Lord with all of our heart, we have to choose to follow Jesus his way, not our way, not the way that the Christians say. Get plugged into this ministry. Just do this basketball ministry, and you'll be a Christian. Go on this mission trip, and you'll be a good Christian. Give tithe and join our church and get plugged in, and you'll be a good Christian on your way to heaven. Following Jesus is not about our church membership, but it is about holiness and righteousness, hearing God when we pray, and then actually obeying Him. So I want to encourage you to work on your prayer life. Pray directly to Jesus, work out your relationship with Him, and push forward with Him in faith, and bow to no other. May the grace of Jesus be with you.
