The Narrow Way

Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Matthew 7
There are only two kind of people on this earth ,those who do things their way and those who do things God's way.
You are either a son of Abel or a son of Cain.You have your own righteousness or the righteousness of God.
There is only one way your name is writen in the book of life.
Who are you trusting in ? Your own vain and limited wisdom or the God of all truth ?
If you rely on your own wisdom you are putty in the hands of the deciever and easily led to hell.

Without the sheeding of blood there is no remission for sin.
For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you."Then likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry. And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
Hebrews 9
Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3 And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD. Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering, 5 but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.
Genesis 4
Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the LORD said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Genesis 6
Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
Revelation 20
The "Three Weeks" of gradually-increasing mourning over the destruction of the Holy Temples and Israel's exile begins Thursday with the fast of the 17th of the Hebrew month of Tammuz. This is the day on which Nebuchadnezzar and his Babylonian forces breached the walls of Jerusalem, after many months of siege, on their way to destroying the Holy Temple.

"For the foundations are cast down, what hath the righteous done?" Psalms 11:6

Wanted to share this video about the collapsing American foundation and what the so called righteous have done...

Thanks for the message.
Thank God for Ken's important ministry.
The evolution heresy in the church has destroyed the foundation.
Sad but true on the foundation's gone.
It's going to get ugly but God's grace is sufficent to help us endure unto the end.

Ilistend to the whole thing and it was very good. Thanks again,I put it up at my latest blog post.

Amen...enduring to the end, the same shall be saved. Not to be cynical, but my only disappointment is knowing the foundation is so far gone and spent, things won't get better here or anywhere for that matter. Not that people can't still get saved but many churches think enduring to the end would lead or mean something such as losing a job or a relationship or a family member...that would be considered "enduring" for many so called church going christians -- to just get through it and you'll be okay; having no idea of what it really means to "work out our own salvation with MUCH fear and trembling" and counting it all lost for Christ, thus defying their own salvation. Some believe it all and everything is done by grace. It's an awful sorry state of affairs from what I can see, yet we pray, Come Quickly Lord Jesus...

'the foundation is so far gone and spent, things won't get better here or anywhere for that matter'

Many Americanized Christians have been living in lala land for a long time.A false sense of security is being ripped away to reveal the true condition of the Laodecian Church.
It is a miserable condition.
Entertainment and the 'good American life have done much to turn the church into a passive and useless clubhouse.
The salt has truly lost it's savor.
For so long the majority believed they would not have to be here to endure unto the end as Jesus said.
They don't really believe his word and only pick and choose what they want to believe.
The Lord blessed me with much time in the prophets and first books of Moses(the front part of the Bible) and I learned that Christian's are imitating faithless Israel before God sent judgment upon them.
We actuallt thought we were better ,above all of that stuff in the past.
Our pride has blinded us.
What will we do when the elimination becomes the extermination ?

'What will we do when the elimination becomes the extermination ?'

We better be prayed through, read up and walking on the mainline walking on the strait and narrow; otherwise there is no other way one will be able to stand and say, "For Christ is to me both in life and in death advantage." Philippians 1:21 (Geneva Bible)

"For me to live is Christ and to die is gain." (KJV) ...

'We actuallt thought we were better ,above all of that stuff in the past.'

Replacement Theology (& my childhood exposure to the RCC) at it's best, teaching that God had forsaken His people to accomodate self-righteousness to the Gentiles. That in itself has proved to be an abomination...
